This is the dumbest suicide pact I've ever heard of
So. Three North Carolina women decided to kill themselves. Only they couldn't bear to actually pull the trigger on themselves. That's why they got a .22-caliber pistol and took turns shooting each other, in a circle, police say.
It worked really well if you can overlook the fact that two of them lived. They're now facing homicide charges.


James I couldnt view the "took turns shooting each other" link Says it has expired or something.

OK so make that all of them.

If you are going to shoot yourself, you HAVE to use something more powerful than a .22
I can't emphasize this enough, people.

If this had not happened, I could not have believed something like it ever would.
Reminds me of what we're seeing in the Democratic primary this year, as they destroy themselves trying to kill each other.

After the first 2 are dead, who's left to help the 3rd die? They formed a Polish firing squad, but 2 out of every 3 survive this situation. Will the state execute them and make their dreams come true?

I'm just glad to see that were all coming together. This would have been a true tragedy if the people involved were all of the same race. Come on lets celebrate diversity people.

If they had waited a few months they could have come to Kansas and purchased a machine gun and gotten the job doen.

They should have taken a Thelma and Louise and road trip to DC in a convertible... they'd have been shot eventually.
