I'm sure the number will go up once the AWB lapses and high cap mags become available again.

Guess there'll be a waiting period and backround check to buy rope now. Sigh.

What's wrong with these kids?
Not good news for the Brady/VPC crowd.

We need to ban ropes and cords.
We need a background check in order to purchase rope.
We need a 10 day waiting period to pick up your order of rope.
We need to clamp down and ban thick (50 caliber) rope.
We need to ban black assault ropes.
DO IT FOR THE CHILDREN!!!!

Hanging only kills by suffocation if you do it wrong. Stupid kids can't even hang themselves properly.

OK everyone. Better lay in a lifetime supply of rope before an 'Assault Rope Ban' is proposed.

Wow that would be a fast shot to get more than one shot off before the melon explodes

The article gives the impression that there is an epidemic of hanging suicides among yutes, then we learn in the last sentence that the overall suicide rate among yutes has declined dramatically.
The glass is 90% full, but you must act like it is 10% empty so you can say that IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT.

Didn't the liberals realize that making guns harder to get their hands on wouldn't keep the kids from being suicidal? Do they not account for shifts in human behavior when they make these laws?
I'm surprised its not pills, though. Hanging? Ugh!

Of course, guns are illegal for teens. Wouldn't want to have a criminal record, you know.
To: TC Rider
for a while it was jumping off buildings, then drugs, the gass from a stove, then guns, now hanging .....
What is next? Just keep watching MTV for the next death fad.

Yeah. If they read the right medical journals, they'd know the best way to manage it is a "long-drop" hanging--dropping from greater than body height. "Short-drop" cases have an excellent prognosis as long as the suicidee is still alive by the time they reach the hospital.
On the whole, I'd prefer they do it this way rather than guns since they're more likely to botch the job!

Resume Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.
