Slog - Comments on "This is Creepy" http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/this_is_creepy So says Slog tipper Matthew, rightly, about this story.

It not true that suicidal people will eventually find a way to do themselves in. That's why the Aurora bridge fence is a good idea. If they survive their moment of crisis, they can get help and stay alive. But when you've got guns lying around everywhere, this is what you get.

But the Realist in me says the wife was a harpy that eventually drove her husbands to suicide.

Part of the reason that men commit suicide more often than women, even though women attempt suicide more often than men, is that men tend to choose more effective means, including guns. If you're using a less effective means, it might delay you long enough to rethink it.
