Kokoro-kun said: I really hate how people look down on people who commit suicide. I hear it all too often. Things like "If that idiot killed himself, then he probably deserved it. What a selfish prick." Yes of course, suicide is selfish. But it's still a valid fucking choice. If a person doesn't want to live, then they have every right to choose to do so. So yes. Suicide should be legal, and it shouldn't be looked down on. People need to stop acting like guru's on life, and let people do what the fuck they want. Took the words right outta my mouth......sorta. The only problem I have with suicide being legal is that a lot of people who want to commit suicide (I've had to talk to a few friends about it, so I know.) don't fully understand the impact that it will have on others. Now, I'm not saying I have a solution for this problem, (maybe a some kind of legal form that has to be signed by the participant detailing all the consequences or something. Maybe someone else here can do the heavy lifting for me.) but It's still an issue that needs to be addressed before it becomes legal. |

Again, that was just a suggestion off the top of my head. A form obviously wouldn't work for a multitude or reasons. But some kind of safety net or legal barrier would have to be installed if legal suicide were to become a reality. |
| No, please do not make suicide legal. It'll just let more people kill themselves and not think about the consequences. No... |
 |
| So, because I'm lazy, I'll just direct you here. Before you simply say yes because it's a right, I'll ask you to consider the implications more deeply and actually research into the problem. Thanks. Yes, this is in reference to people with diseases, but it's the most I can offer for the moment. |

| Ur making suicide legal but not death penalty????? Smh |
| Twitter and it's consequences had been a disaster for the human race |
| If you have suicide booths, it'll be less than a year before a case shows up where someone's bereaved family want to persecute someone else for insulting their child moments before that child entered the booth. Freedom of speech will be stuck with another mighty blow. |
| Now you're wondering if there's white text in any of my other posts. Over there, I'm everywhere. I know that. |
| suicide is illegal because murder is illegal. |
| Meh. If some idiot wants would kill themselves, they should be able to do that. Obviously, there needs to be a limit and a checker of sorts or else half the teenage population will be dead in six months. Suicide itself seems like a disgusting thing to do IMObut it's better than a person who doesn't want to live wasting what could be my share of resources. |

It's the people who act like their life is meaningless and that there's no other option except for suicide that my post was for. NEETS and others are still cool. |

So people who "waste your resources" (whatever that means) deserve to be killed, but NEETs who do it while laughing at you deserve to live? That doesn't make any sense. "Meh. If some idiot wants would kill themselves, they should be able to do that. Obviously, there needs to be a limit and a checker of sorts " Another contradiction which shows you have no idea what you're even talking about People who are suicidal are not "idiots", they are mentally ill. It seemss the concept of mentally ill is difficult for your shallow little brain to comprehend. Also, NEETs aren't "cool" they are also mentally ill, or mindlessly selfish, or at least butthurt about society for some reason. And either way they need help, if that means getting kicked out like the parasites they are then so be it if that helps them become members of society. Mod Edit: Removed baiting. |

MechaKiryu said: There are some countries where you can legally be euthanised by injection. I think it's like that simpsons episode, they play you music you like and show scenes on a screen that are comforting to you while you're being injected and dying. MidnightLPA said: Everywhere, apparently. This is the first time I've ever heard of this so the people here might be lying. Where is suicide illegal? Who is being prosecuted for killing themselves? Nice double post, by the way. It's a really tricky subject, on the one hand it may appear merciful to let someone put themselves out of misery, on the other everyone can find something to live for with the help of other people. Plus do we really have the right to kill ourselves? |

| I would prefer not to have this suicide booth. Although suicide is a valid choice that can be made by a mature adult, but I doubt that the drawback and side effect will come really quick. Every life is equal. Think of your love one and the one who love you before deciding to suicide. There is nothing right or wrong with suicide, but I would be prefer everyone not giving up your own life until your last breath. |

PureBlueSF said: MidnightLPA said: Where is suicide illegal? Who is being prosecuted for killing themselves? It's not something they'll try to prosecute someone for. It's "illegal" so that first responders have an immediate warrant to enter a property to try to revive them if they've attempted it. I didn't know that. Interesting. |
| This thread is silly. What does it matter if suicide was legal and had a booth? anyone can suicide anyway, regardless of law or a device to do it. You can suicide at 14 with a kitchen knife, seriously how is this a topic of conversation if its right or not. |
 |
| There can be no laws over suicide. Even if you make suicide illegal..do you think the person who is going to be committing the act will give a fuck? He/she will not cease to exist, the law will have absolutely no impact over them. |

Showing support for suicide is a negative for those going to try and commit it. (This is depending on the situation, but mostly, negative) |

I can tell you that the law doesn't even come into consideration with a suicidal individual. |

Such as the possible negative political backlash received by approving of something that many people consider "immoral". Or the fact that no country wants its own workforce to kill itself. |
