I’ve noticed quite a few more “died at home” obituaries in the papers since Obama took office.
Wonder how many were “cleaning his gun when it went off” accidents.
“Acting recklessly. (If you live near a military base and see a boot on a crotch rocket—send up a prayer for them. You probably won’t be able to catch up to them in your VW)”
Riding like a fool might be more appropriate. Being on a bike is by no means suicidal, in fact riding is one of the best activities I have to beat depression. I won’t burden you with details but the last few years have been very tough for me. Don’t know what I would do without my “therapy rides”. There’s a saying amount bikers that you never see a motorcycle in from of a psychiatrist’s office.
Great post, thanks. Having a nephew take his life a few years back really makes me know how important it is to intervene when you see the symptoms.
This is good news for liberals—why not cheer? /s
I’ll bet if you look at the numbers it correspondents to a rise in prescription anti-depressants.
Excellent post.
Somebody else said that too, but who’s to say more people aren’t on medication for the same reasons more people are killing themselves? Or that the rate of suicide wouldn’t be sky high if they WEREN’T on meds. There’s some evidence of higher suicidal ideation in adolescents on antis but I don’t think it extends to the adult population.
Bingo!
side effects, thoughts of suicide.
A rabid one.
Excellent post. The most insidious aspect of what you point out, is that it’s entirely by design. It’s all part of the plans for complete control of a *glorious* one world government, where every need is covered, no one will lack (no matter how undeserving), but EVERY detail and move a person makes is monitored and controlled.
Everyone is perceptive and correct in listing out the many causes of this.
Remember the root cause: the devil infecting more and more souls.
“Don’t know what I would do without my “therapy rides”.”
You and me both!
The whole article must be purchased but it’s posted on a forum... The part about dying isn’t INDIVIDUALS, it is towns.
“Nothing happened to them. There wasn’t some awful disaster. There wasn’t a war or a famine or a plague or a foreign occupation. Even the economic changes of the past few decades do very little to explain the dysfunction and negligence — and the incomprehensible malice — of poor white America. So the gypsum business in Garbutt ain’t what it used to be. There is more to life in the 21st century than wallboard and cheap sentimentality about how the Man closed the factories down.
The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities is that they deserve to die. Economically, they are negative assets. Morally, they are indefensible. Forget all your cheap theatrical Bruce Springsteen crap. Forget your sanctimony about struggling Rust Belt factory towns and your conspiracy theories about the wily Orientals stealing our jobs. Forget your goddamned gypsum, and, if he has a problem with that, forget Ed Burke, too. The white American underclass is in thrall to a vicious, selfish culture whose main products are misery and used heroin needles. Donald Trump’s speeches make them feel good. So does OxyContin. What they need isn’t analgesics, literal or political. They need real opportunity, which means that they need real change, which means that they need U-Haul.”

Active members feel betrayed.
Support, hope, and NEVER giving up.
I find this depressing...
For men, betrayal is extremely damaging. Respect is crucial and the left hate people.
Anyone who says that is a follower of Satan whether they know it or not. That pissed me off so bad.
