  7. Suicide is so scary to me. Every time I read that someone has committed suicide it makes me sad but more frightened because it's such a violent and horrific thing. It's so heartbreaking when people do it no matter who it is. :(

  12. He looks like he could be Taye Diggs' son. Good looking guy although I've never heard of him. One of my classmates from my home town committed suicide over the weekend as well. Rest in peace to the both of them.

  13. Folks,
    Don't jump on the suicide bandwagon just yet. The news reports say only self inflicted gunshot. There is no mention of a suicide note; so until there is an official cause of death this is just as likely an accidental shooting.

    Remember boys and girls there are no toy guns and there is no such thing as an unloaded gun. Live by these truths and you will be gun safe.

  19. Sad.
    I recognised him from a show called Fast Forward that lasted only a season. His character committed suicide on that show as well.
