Well we're back to we were with KingCrabBattle: you think you can decide what a mental illness is or isn't, despite the fact that you have a source agreed upon by professionals (the DSM-5) and that source does not list suicidal thoughts/ideation as a mental illness. But again, we're going on this semantic journey so both of you can ignore the other question, which is: so what? What if I did want to buy a firearm? How do you or anyone else plan to stop every person who has ever had suicidal thoughts in their lives from obtaining a firearm? Suicidal thoughts are not considered to be a specific mental illness in DSM-V but rather a symptom of other underlying mental illness. There was a push back in 2007-2008 to include suicidal thoughts into DSM-V but it seems to have failed. --- Polite fiction is still fictitious even when no one is offended. <cite>C7D posted [p:896492172] in A suicide ...
