Art imitates life. I equate it to using a weapon as literary device. If you're reading a book and the author mentions a gun on the table, that gun will be used.

Think of how many minor traffic accidents or drunk arguments at birthday parties result in deadly consequences because just like our author, if someone has a gun, they may use it.

It's not a distraction though.

The vast majority of attempted suicide survivors regret ever trying. They get help and live better lives.

When someone is in a bad state of mind or having a depressed episode that is the time when they are most vulnerable.

Having easy access to an immediate life ending device with the squeeze of a trigger is a major problem.

This is the reason jump nets and barriers work on bridges. Making it slightly harder or more inconvenient to kill themselves saves lives.

Yes but if you don't qualify for a special program you are only seeing a 3% down payment with an exceptionally high interest rate and significant PMI. Which makes it even more unaffordable. That might help recent high income earners with little savings but again makes it difficult for average people with average savings.

Good PR is worth more when there is bad news first. If Disney does this sight unseen it's worth less than giving out passes next week after this story gets around.

The vast majority of illegal immigration is done by people overstaying visas. Take you're racist uninformed and sickening list for injury and death and shove it up your ass
