    I’ve never thought about shooting anyone else. Does thinking about shooting myself count to the statistic? I’ve definitely thought about that before!

        Well because there’s a difference between saying “wow my life sucks, I could really go for a bullet sandwich right now” and “wow that guy sucks, I should shoot him”

          Ooh and the question specifically mentions “someone else.” By the time I scrolled down enough, I forgot about that.

          Anyway I have both considered offing myself, and on a night where a dude scared me on a dark street I wished I had a gun. I guess that’s not the same as wanting to shoot him. I just wanted to have something that would make him as scared of me as I was of him. I just wanted to be left alone.
