Two Georgia men survived a gruesome suicide attempt Friday after cutting their own arms off with a saw, reported Atlanta's Journal Constitution.

The 40 and 41-year-old men managed to remove three of their four arms, cutting them about six inches about their wrists, Atlanta Police Major Lane Hagin told the Journal.

The men left a suicide note with the manager of their apartment building saying they were killing themselves because they were recently diagnosed with HIV and their business had failed, according to police.

The men are in stable condition at a local hospital and will undergo psychiatric tests, a police spokesman said.

Like Rudy, they didn't support the right to bear arms.

The 2nd Amendment was just an old saw to them.

Maybe if they cut each other's heads off instead it would have worked. ;-)

Now they can sue under the ADA.

Yeah, both HIV and armless, not to mention beyond stupid.

At 40 an 41 years old, we will be paying for 40 years

"what the hell were these guys thinking?"

My guess is that they don't think. That's how they got the disease and they don't care about anyone else getting it. It's all about them after all.

I once worked as a nurse. One of the patient's shot himself in the head to commit suicide. He survived, but was blinded in both eyes.

Now these guys still have HIV, still have a failing business and now have cut off their arms.

This sort of suicide attempt is simply demonic. And the planning of it absolutely diabolical. It is as if they were trying to remove themselves from the world the way babies are disected in the womb during abortions.

Well, one of them will not be referred to in the future as "jack-off".
