Dept. of Friends Forever

With a little help from my friends

In this piece from the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet there is a story of a man who have confessed to the killing of another man, but his explanation is that the shooting was agreed - the other man had somewhat hired his friend to shoot him. In the back.

Ignoring the fact that it sounds really moronic one can start to philosophise about friendship: with a friend like that one surely don´t need no foes. And if his confession is true: how fatalistic is it to agree to shoot one's friend? "Hey, dude! Look, I've bought a gun - can you shoot me?".
