Really? Again. I hate to say this, but something needs to be done about these ranges. Maybe allow only like 3 shooters at a time under close supervision or something.

Are you serious?

Why would you place any blame on the range? People overdose to commit suicide all the time, maybe the pharmacist should come to peoples houses when they need to take their meds so they don't get funny ideas. Someone stepped in front of a train around here not to long ago, maybe the train should have pillows and stuffed bears attached to the front and be restricted to four miles an hour so that doesn't happen again.

This wasn't Shooters.

Japan has twice the suicide rate we do (we're not even in the top 35!) and practically none of them are by gun...because they generally don't have 'em.

What can any range really do? There isn't some magical way to tell if someone is going to commit suicide on their range. If there was they'd get thrown out. It's tragic but it's be no different than renting a car and driving into a wall at high speed.

Doug, you little infant, shut your useless mouth up. I am not a corporal. Also since you think that is a funny subject to choke about, you ought to be banned. I had a friend kill himself after his last deployment you a sshole. Seriously, I want Doug, banned, now.

Especially when he finds something 'choking' about suicide.

I am quite a bit older than Napoleon and have suffered through more veteran friends' funerals at the enemies hands and their own. Saturday, a neighbor took a 12 ga. pill that was fatal.

He won't see me whining about much of any thing. But I will damn him as a thug Bonobo.
