During the financial recession in America it seems it might be driving people to do crazy things... There was a man who killed his wife and 3 children and then turned the gun on himself with his suicide explanantion note stating he could no longer provide for them, and he felt no other way out.... WHAT?!?!?
Wow, I mean, all of us have felt the recession in one way or another, but how could you look at your child and then shoot them? Regardless the meaning.
What do you think about this craziness?

Ya I do agreed that it's really very frustrating to know what people or humans do , they are really turn to something drastic in their life, as of now we still feel the recession , even my family suffered from this devastating economy I hope people realize that it's just money , but I hope time pass it will grow or economy will prosper anytime now.

That was pretty retarded to go do that, but when you can't provide for your own children, it's pretty painful. (I'm not saying killing them all was the answer either) But stuff like that can be tough to deal with and not everyone can handle that kind of pressure financially or emotionally.

true, however mom wasnt working, so I am sure there was some kind of way to make ends meet that way, children were all of age to attend school, so she had to time to work....
I think he was just so done with it he wanted to end it but didnt want to leave his family to suffer as he was without him, but regardless, it was a horrible way to "fix" the problem.

some people get so desperate these days due to the economy. i know my hubby was off for 9 months and things were getting pretty tough near the end. Thank GOD he has gotten a job! the thing is, bills still need to be paid and you still have to eat whether you are working or not.

The poor man obviously completely lost it and was not in his right mind.
I have heard of this type of situation before and while I cannot possibly imagine being that desperate I could kill my children I feel really sorry for the person concerned as their mental state must be in a really awful state.
God bless them all.

The crisis affected every country and in the world one way or another. And people react to difficulties in different ways. In this case what this guy did is not normal. Psychologically stable individuals find ways to fight hardship. If they don't then we can conclude that something is wrong with their mind. Perhaps if he came up to other difficulties he couldn't overcome, he might have acted the way he did.

That's show they already lost their hope to survive during the financial recession. I thought of America is the land full of opportunities. Anyway, they should be working out to solve their problems during the financial crisis by seeking opportunities to make money and learn.

I really try not to comment on these types of things, I just find it very saddening and I hope that more can be done about this especially to prevent it. There's some very nutty people about and I can't believe for a second that there's no signs which aren't noticed. I don't honestly believe these types of people can truly appear normal, it's just not what you expect.
Very saddening though.

It's not that way only in US.
In Bulgaria people live that way around 20 years now. They don't live, they have to survive. Day by day, same and same things, same and same promises about the light future we have and day by day people who can't handle the misery of our society.
When the misery come in your house from the door, love fly away from the window. This is what we say here.
