Sounds like mutual homicide/suicide. Very strange, esp. given that they are twins.

This reminds me of when I talked to a guy who worked at a shooting range in Guam. The Japanese tourists would come to the shooting range to shoot guns, as they can't do this in Japan. Suicides were not uncommon.

Imagine that being a regular part of your job. Witnessing either the act or aftermath of a suicide with firearm.

Sad.

I read a recent news report of a Japanese man who killed himself while on video chat. According to the report, several chatters egged him on to kill himself. Which he did.

"What a world."

Look at your child tonight. Look at him sleeping. Or her.

And then imagine they will commit suicide in their young adulthood.

It rips me up just to imagine it. I think that brings home the real tragedy that suicide is.
