But idk it is saddening RIP.
-Well said, Mantus. When i was in my early teens at school i knew a boy who blew his head off with his dads .357 magnum, all because his girlfriend dumped him. I'm sure We all realise that youngsters especially in their teens are under extreme pressure to be seen to be sucessful by their parents, schools, friends, etc. Also, young people are more likely to act impulsively. And guns are an easy way to suicide when one is in a moment of despair. It's just too easy to die quickly with a Gun.
-Again i question the ease of getting guns in the US at a young age, and also think that youngsters should be extra careful about taking drugs when they are already under stress-especially hallucinogens.
-Guns, knives, cars, food, alcohol, drugs...These are not evil things when used correctly and wisely.
-Furthermore, perhaps this highlights the danger of prohibition. Perople turn to strangers to get drugs to smoke not knowing what they contain, etc. If it was legal and properly regulated like alcohol and cigarettes, then we'd surely see a lot less problems in society like this. Pity the government is still so stupid regarding accepting that people do like to try things, and always will.
