The vision of a GSW to the head (if that’s where he shot himself) will stay with those kids for the rest of their lives. Remember the footage of the S. Vietnamese officer shooting a VC in the right temple with his .38 snubby. That was around 40 years ago.

Another concern is suicide tends to be contagious. Other kids on the edge may decide to kill themselves now.

Maybe, but in general you know that is fake.
This was in real life, live. Very different, IMO.

I’m sure most have seen worse on TV - probably not and that is part of the problem, on TV it is too clean. If after a shooting or murder on TV they actually showed the blood and carnage, it may teach a lesson.
