Do you think it's ok for someone to commit suicide?

I guess this could be a better tinderbox thread but I was just wondering what the huddle thinks. Do you think it's just as bad as killing another person?

Explain.

No I am not contemplating suicide, sorry Panthro.

I'm not sure what you mean by OK.

One of my best friends just committed suicide a few months ago. It was devastating for all his friends and family. I don't understand why he did it however it was his choice. IMO a very horrible decision but morally wrong? In his case i don't think so. Does morality even matter at that point? Idk, deep questions that i don't have answers to or maybe don't want to have answers to.

And no it's nothing like killing another person, imo.

I think its the easy way out and it effects/affects ( not sure which is proper here) others some to the point of contemplating suicide also. My take is if you wanna kill someone , join the military and that way you could also die like you wanted without it leaving everyone with so many questions that can never be answered.

Its worse IMO

Suicide is the one way to ensure the people you care for the most will suffer the most pain and confusion.

Suicide is the most selfish thing a person can do. It comes from feelings of inadequacy and loss of hope in life. If you truly cared about those people, who care about you, you wouldn't commit suicide.

The only time suicide is okay is if you are uncontrollably suffering. I'm saying situations like, you're terminally ill and want to go on your own terms, or were in a horrible accident or something, and you get no pleasure from life anymore because of what has happened to you. I see no reason a physically healthy person should commit suicide, there is always hope.

It's selfish. It's worse than murder, and even though I'm not religious my answer is based on a church upbringing. Though shall not kill. It includes yourself, and if you're dead you can't ask forgiveness.

Also, my first step mom killed herself. It was apparently a financial decision for her. She had been giving her family money from credit card advances for some reason. To the point of being maxed out. She took a .38 to the face, and left my dad to deal with the financial institutions. I never liked that woman.

No, no, no, and no Saltman. You will not get 72 virgins. A goat is the best Allah can do for you.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
