Good point. I lost my father to a gun suicide. NEVER ONCE did I think about gun control. He would’ve just picked another way.

First of all, I’m sorry for your loss.

Secondly, I lost one of my goose hunting buddies to a shotgun suicide. NONE of us saw it coming, and NONE of us ever feared for our life when we were around him, thinking he was going to shoot us or harm his family. (He did neither.)

I still don’t understand it, but people hide their pain from others so well, it seems.

I, too, never though, ‘Well, Paulie offed himself. I guess the rest of us better give up our guns now, and stop having fun socializing shooting skeet and hunting!”
