Goodguy is completely accurate regarding people who consistently advise people against this method because it's too unreliable. Honestly, I feel like a lot of this is from pro - life advocates because in reality this is a pretty foolproof way to go. As long as you have at least a 9mm and don't aim from under the chin you will be fine.
Also, the suggestions that you may not die instantly, even if you don't, you're brain won't be able to process anything before you die. I recommend reading this article about how the brain processes information
Ever wonder what it would be like to get shot in the head, or have your face smash into a car's windshield? Well, you can stop wondering, because you'll never know — even if it does happen to you.

Same here most of my post is about childhood and how I miss it, I wish when I pull that trigger I wake up as a child again and all of this was just a bad dream.
I honestly believe that what happens after death is what you make of it. If you've ever seen the movie what dreams may come, it is how I am hoping it is. Either that or it's completely nothingness. But I refuse to believe that nothing is waiting for us afterwards. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it only changes state.
You very possibly die rather slowly. You see, you might stay conscious for another 20-30 seconds. If I am remembering correctly, Dylan Klebold shot himself in the temple with a tec semi auto pistol and he actually didn't die to brain trauma but to suffocation due to blood flowing into his lungs.
Just because the physical body does not die instantly, that has nothing to do with the brain's ability to process any pain or anything at all. By the time the body is dead it wouldn't have been conscious to anything
And this exactly why people like OP and myself choose temple shots you make it out to be rocket science and a like a game of chance if it will go right with a temple shot it´s just just press the gun at the temple and pull and there are plenty of links I just posted to back it up that it works Seung Hui Cho shot himself in the temple too with his Glock 19 and my other shooters offed themselves using 9mm handguns shooting themselves in the temple.
And btw where did you hear that Lanza shot himself in the back of his head? I assumed it was a temple shot after seeing the pictures of his hat with a bullet hole in it and everything I read about it, you might be right I am just curious where you read it.
Again where do you get this bullshit from? I have never heard that you are just making it up. Especially the 20-30 seconds wtf? it is known that that brain shuts down immediately after the bullet hits it shuts down so fast that you won´t even be able to hear the gunshot.
I feel like these posts are motivated by pro-life people. There's no way a sane person can believe some of this stuff about gunshot to the head isn't reliable
