I'm tired of people saying suicide should be legal. It affects many people, and because it's bad, it should be illegal. We also know that people who do it never are in the right mind, because random people and incompetent hacks with bullshit degrees say so.

Discuss.

I believe that in addition to a person having the right to live, they should also have the right to end their life if they see fit.
That'd be like letting people do drugs.

A person should have the right to do whatever the fuck they want to do with their life, that includes ending it.  

 Making it illegal is kinda silly..what are they going to do, put the dead body in jail?


But, the government shouldn't endorse bad behavior.

hehe..Why not?

They don't endorse it. There is nothing they can do about people killing thereselves. Wtf are they gonna do? put all people on watch 24/7 to make sure they dont do it. Being illegal isnt gonna stop anything at all, they arent going to care because they will be DEAD.
this topic is stupid.

Absolutely not. A person has a right to live according to the constitution, they should have every right to death.
good point

there's a lot of "bad behaviour" that the government doesn't criminalize, that doesn't mean they 'endorse' it.

Suicide is illegal. People who commit suicide though have mental/emotional problems and without help there's nothing you can do about it. What are they going to do put them in jail for trying to kill themselves? Thats not going to help anything. Instead they will get you the help you need. If that means checking you into a pychiatric hospital. Thats what they usually do.

well they really cant do anything if someone does cuz the would be dead but if u r thinking about it u should try to prevent it

Why should it be illegal if the person succeeds? It's not like you can punish them.
porcelain cinderella Posted at 4:34 pm on Sep. 4, 2008
If someone wants to die then I mean yea try to stop them but if they fuck up it's ridiculous that they're taken into custody and are placed in a mental hospital. Who are they to decide this person should live? Someone trying to kill themselves knows their lives a hell of a lot more than any judge or doctor.
