...high suicide rates because they don't know how they work.

Urgghh I can't figure out how this gun works!!  I'm just gonna kill myself!

And if people are determined to kill themselves, they're gonna. I've never understood the suicide prevention argument for gun control.

It's quite old actually but it gets the point across well and I think sums up mine, if you're going to sell guns to people, make sure they're properly trained and educated in them, if you give them to a bunch of stupid, fearful morons then of course you will get accidents and high suicide rates because they don't know how they work.
