...and has everything to do with the effectiveness of guns in taking a
life. Not that they are all that effective, mind you. I had a friend
in high school who shot himself twice in the chest with a .22. When
that failed, he took a double-barreld 12 gauge out to his car, slipped
his mouth over the barrels bracing the but of the shotgun against the
floorboard, and pulled the triggers. I recall seeing a picture of a
man (ogre.com) who tried to commit suicide with a shotgun, and all he
managed to do was to blow his face off. There are more effective ways
to commit suicide, and the implication that individual gun ownership
rights need to be revoked by virtue of the effectiveness argument (or
any argument for that matter) is naive.
The web site cited above was actually ogrish.com. I think ogrish was
either absorbed by liveleak.com or became liveleak.com. I have never
been clear on that.
