   Maybe. I would definitely kill myself if I didn’t know how to spell the word “sentenced.”

   no, I’ve been looking for a good government program… like jail offers!

3. Attack Dog, August 10, 2010:

   Honestly… ya. I can’t imagine spending my entire life in a prison. I’d probably just rather die.

   No, definitely not. I was actually thinking about this earlier today, with the news of the “DC Madam”.

   Prison doesn’t sound like fun, but at least you can still have visits from your loved ones. You can write to them, and get letters from them, and still have a tiny bit of involvement in their lives. This is important to me, so I’d stick around for it.

   That said, prison scares the hell out of me, which is why I obey the laws!

   You almost never get life for a first offense or even a second, so you’ll sort of know it’s coming.

   I think I might look forward to time to read and write and not be bothered by the phone.

   I’d also want to stick around to stay in touch with family and friends, you know, to see how everything turns out!

   Why would anyone kill themselves over that.

   It would be much more fun trying to break out all the time and turning into a psycotic clown that terrorizes gotha…i mean some real world city, while being tracked down by batma…i mean the police.

   Plus being dead generally sucks in my eyes, and life (even an incarcerated one) is vastly superior.

   sure
   I’ll do something incredibly stupid- like try to grab and officer’s gun to shoot someone. I think it’ll be great if i did it when they’re transporting me thru the crowd of media reporters- I’ll grab a officer’s gun and point it at a reporter, finger o nthe trigger.
   I’ll get 15 handguns (18 rounds each) of lead pumped into me before i manage to shoot anyone. Not that I intend to anyway. if they don’t pull out their guns fast enough, I’ll send a bullet over the crowd, hopefully a panicky cop empties his rifle into me.

   The last guy who tried this had 195 rounds shot at him, of which 115 hit. His body was so mangled it looked like he was sent thru a meat grinder. I can tell its a quick death.

   Life isn’t worth living if you can’t live it the way you want to. So going to jail forever is a good reason to force the police to kill you. At least you deprived the public of the good feeling that you’ll be put away forever. And gave a bunch of lucky reporters a great story.

   Today Life in prison usually does not mean Life in prison unless It is Life in Prison without the possibility of parole. Under the second circumstance I would spend my time figuring out how to break out and stay out. No killing myself is not an option under either circumstance.

   People sometimes go to jail and get out soon and take it as a learning experience. If you are going to jail just remember things and circumstances change for the better. I definitely would not commit suicide because there’s always a better time in life waiting for us. And our heavenly Father says for us not to take our life. He wants us to be joyful and calm. I had to learn a few lessons in life because I made and still make Mistakes like all of us do. We are not alone. So have faith, it’s not the end of the world.

   God bless you and keep you.

   Mary
