Liar. But, unlike you, I do understand why a man, who has just heard a city council vote to destroy his business and who will lose his home, might feel suicidal. You apparently do not understand that, and have no problem with petty bureaucracy destroying everything he worked for. Understood.
By the way, with commercially zoned property next door to him, and all down the street from him, what do YOU think should have been done? Would YOU have voted against him?
As a first step, avoid shooting oneself. Secondly, find a way to overcome the setback. Oh, that's right, no one else thinks that way except me.
"Would YOU have voted against him?"
Nope. But I guess I would have gotten to view his suicide all the same. What a treat.
