Please quantify comparative demographic categories between Veterans and non-Veterans???
I am curious to know what similarities there are between the two main categories???
Besides the usual gender, race, education sub-categories...
Are you implying the suicide rate for non-Veterans is greater or less than that of Veterans???
I’m not implying anything. I’m asking a question which can only be answered by gathering and analyzing statistics.
For example, say (for the sake of the explanation) you have information on 100 white men, aged 60-70, who were divorced or widowed, who committed suicide. Were significantly more than half of those men veterans? Were significantly fewer veterans? Was it fairly close to equal?
The information in post 29 indicates that it’s likely more than half were veterans.
