I used to believe that until a guy in one of my units happened to "accidentally" shoot himself while "cleaning his weapon". It just so happened that he "cleaned his weapon" right after his girlfriend broke up with him.

Statistics show that depressed people become very careless with weapons. In the UK they now have to get careless with knives which can be a messy business.
