Discuss Peeps.

[Shaun]

Yes.

[Stu]

Absoloutely. As long as you are eighteen or over and have a valid ID.

[Marsh.]

Um, allowed? Are people regularly given "permission" to toss themselves off a bridge?

[Mr XcX]

I say No.

[Ninastar]

Yes

[Jordan.]

Yes.

[InOne]

Depends on the situation.

[CharlieO]

You should be allowed to take your own life when ever you please. I don't understand the massive taboo that is death, its not like the person will regret it they don't have the ability to feel anything.

Depressions is the most horrible feeling in the world and I had a mild case of it. I can only imagine how crap it would be for someone feeling that constantly to more of a concentration. Why make someone live when they will feel less pain dead?

I mean it in a variety of meaning.

For example someone in Hospital with cancer could ask the doctor to kill them with an overdose. However it is against the law. etc

That's more Euthanasia rather than suicide

[Mr XcX]

Why are Y'all saying yes. So are you saying if someone you loved took an overdose you would leave them to die.

Do not think so.

This thread also covers this topic too.

[Patrick]

In all honesty though - what are the police going to do?

Handcuff the ******ing corpse?
Making it illegal is almost as pointless as making Cannabis illegal.

[Jordan.]

The only time it shouldn't be allowed is for people serving life in prison.

That's a different subject. Euthanasia.

[Ammi]

If someone wants to commit suicide I don't think they'll worry about whether they're allowed or not

[Stu]

Just to put it out there I believe infinitely that suicide is virtually always wrong and always stupid. I wouldn't stop others from doing it but I think unless you have serious physical disfigurements or mental tendancies that could either mean you are a danger to yourself or others or are in constant pain - an extreme situation like that - then there is always a way to make things better. Even if you are at the very bottom you can only work up.

I think people who can't do this either wallow in self pity like an obese pig revelling in a vat of chicken or just don't have the intelligence or mental capacity to creatively get up, get going and make things better.

Kill yourself if you want but it's a cowards way out and an utter mockery of the very special, beautiful chance at this whole life business that you've been given.

[Mr XcX]

Suicide is SELFISH and WRONG!!!

No one should be allowed to. By saying yes you are effectively saying Serial Killers should "have the right" to kill themselves.

If I had made a decision, not snap judgement and I wanted to kill myself I would want people to let me.

Depressions is a horrible feeling, why should someone have to live with more pain than die and be dead with none? Depression isn't just mental you can actually physically feel it.

Hang On a Min.

I might be on a Important Train Journey


I do nor want another one under.

[Doogle]

I don't think suicide is ever something people should go to, no matter how bad their situation, but if that person wants to then that's their choice.

Also I agree about the prison thing.

I agree with some points you make.

I think Suicide is Wrong in all cases, even in Euthansia.

Yeah it's selfish and wrong most of the time, I agree, but so is denying others their personal freedoms to do whatever they want with their own bodies and minds as long as they are not harming others.

Yeah you could say they are causing loved ones great anguish but that's just the harsh reality of it. What are you going to do, tie up someone and keep them sectioned off in a room because you want them to stick around on good ol' planet earth?
