      While we’re at it, should we also send the gun manufacturer CEO to prison when someone kills themself with a gun? The drug manufacturer CEO when someone intentionally ODs in a medicine?

      What if someone takes poison meant for rats, should that CEO go to prison too?

      Why would we hold someone responsible for someone else’s actions? I don’t think these people are good people, but maybe we should be realistic about who is to blame here.

        Guns, in the most literal sense, have no ability to vocalize to a suicidal teenager that the world would be a better place without them and give them advice on their noose tying skills.

        These literally aren’t even in the same ballpark.
