by guns in the country are the result of individuals 
using these weapons as a means to commit suicide. 
Some of these deaths might have been prevented if 
there were adequate background checks.

tors of violence. 
(3) Approximately 1 in 4 American adults have 
a mental illness and nearly half of all adults in 
America will develop at least one mental illness dur-
ing their lifetime. 
(4) Less than half of children and adults with 
diagnosable mental health problems receive the 
treatment they need.
