I don't understand suicide either, unless it was to avoid a painful death or save your platoon or family or something like that.

I remember talking to someone once who'd been admitted to a hospital for trying it, and he said at the time he really didn't know what he was doing.

I don't know how common that is, but if that's a fact, it's pretty scary.

That's the best way to be, believe me.

I totally agree. Anyone who jumps in front of a train is indeed a cock. Imagine what it's like to know you are responsible for someone's death. Obviously the driver didn't know but that doesn't make it any easier I'm sure. I also have a big problem with people who kill themselves in places where their or anyone else's children might find them.

Victim of his own insanity?

Is he a victim?

this is a horrible story. my thoughts and prayers go out to the family of this victim.

Yeah, that's because they don't have the bottle to do it themselves.

Yeah, but I mean other people doing the actual killing bit.

Depends why he did it. It always involves other people in some way though.
