I wonder why that is. If it would be a poor health/living condition, wouldn't euthanasia be ranked in there (it could possibly go under suffocation)? Neurological degradation (Alzheimer's or Parkinson's) I think would make acquiring, holding, and firing a gun very difficult. Does anybody study geriatrics/neurology?
