Original Note:
Suicide is a violent act (the taking of a human life); ergo suicide by firearm is gun violence. The US tracks these deaths as such, and other countries do as well*. This is not misleading nor lacking context. Debate over methodology goes in replies. *https://www.thetrace.org/2021/12/gun-violence-suicide-rate-data-shooting-deaths/
