People will always find a way LTC (Join to see). Woman prefer poison by pills and men more often not prefer jumping or the bullet. Some will use on coming traffic or even traines. There are also those that are considered suicidal by cop. If someone's going to take their life, they will. Animals in the wild do the same thing. Unfortunately it's the sad thing about life. But yes, even if one life can be saved. But no, I don't think we should get rid of anything just because a few found a way.

SFC (Join to see) - Indeed, people will find a way if they are determined. Given the suicide rate among vets and military, I hope they can find some words of encouragement in his video.

While going through tough times I happened to read "Life After Life" by Raymond Moody which was written by a doctor about patients that had died and had been resuscitated, and what they said about the experience afterwards. Most of the experiences were positive and the people were no longer afraid of death.

But in the back of the book were cases of suicide in which the people were trying to escape painful lives and they just wanted the pain to end. Unfortunately for them, the pain and anguish only increased in the next life.

That gave me the determination to deal with my rough times, because I didn't want them to just get worse.
