"Didn't Thompson blow his brains out with his wife and daughter in the next room?"
Something like that. Unless Thompson asked someone to pull the trigger for him, he had "Balls of Steel" in pulling his own wet work. That is how suicide should be portrayed, an ugly selfish mess and not the work of medical professionals.
If a suicide industry does come into being, the service should be provided by the schematics of engineers who develop techniques and devices that you see in the 'Saw' movies. Now putting yourself in those situations would be displaying the ultimate "Balls of Steel".

He wasn't exactly very courteous, though. His wife and daughter were not aware of his plans and he left an awful mess in the kitchen. Couldn't he have done it in the driveway where most of the mess could be hosed down onto the street and into the storm drain?
