what do you say?

This week I visited a man in jail. He was arrested for possessing a gun. His cousin had called him and told him he was about to commit suicide. The man went right over to talk his cousin out of it. After much talking, the cousin surrendered his gun. The man took the gun home; it was the only thing he could think to do. He knew he didn’t want his cousin to take his life because he had barely survived when his wife committed suicide, and he couldn’t imagine dealing with that again. His teenage son is still angry over his mother’s suicide. He called the police and told them his dad had the gun. Because his father committed a felony over twenty years ago, he now is looking at spending almost two years in prison. What do you say?
