It seems that one of the gun free Mecca's that our gun control friends are always pointing to as an example we should strive to emulate is suffering a record suicide rate.
Approximately 90 people a day ended their lives in Japan last year, presumably without the assistance of that instrument of the Devil, the dreaded gun.

Not that I expect any FACTS to alter the rhetoric of the anti's. Suicide figures ARE really helpful when you want to inflate the overall murder rate by adding them in.
