Like the Buddhist monks in India who self-immolate?
Suicide is a mans last resort. Very horrible for the family. They will live with this forever. Such a selfish and hurtful thing to do to your family and friends. Too bad he had not felt that he was loved.
Dilly, Dilly!
He lost money on the game and his bookie came to collect?
The thought crossed my mind that the Cloward-Piven and Alinsky crowd might try to use this to their advantage.
Trump’s fault
Did someone yell “MAGA” before he jumped?
Its my understanding a reporter used the term statement suicide as a snarky way to blame the president. I have no idea what was in the poor mans head. Neither does the reporter.
TSA has always been a cluster of mall cops.
Not even the Bernie Sanders left ever claimed their competence is more than a joke.
Even people who insist some men have vaginal have statements too stupid for even them to make.
Does anybody remember when a few private firms contracted airport security across the country, and this kinda crap didn’t happen?
I guess he was late and didn’t want to wait for the elevator.
Was killed? Passive voice? Who...or what killed him?
That is actually a cool place to jump. If there were 2 stories of foam underneath Id try it.
Im sure the media is writing the Trump Shutdown Fault stories already.
He forgot the qualifying phrase if its true...
Yeah, flight cancelled from St Louis ( Southwest Airlines ) - got out on Delta, long day ...
No luggage
Gravity.
It wasn’t the fall but the sudden stop that got him.
I’m surprised there aren’t more suicides among that unstable TSA crowd. You’d have to be nuts to take that job in the first place. If not already nuts then a few months dealing with the traveling public under those circumstances would drive you there.
I don’t really get why anyone would claim this is Trump’s fault.
The shutdown is over, and anyone who would commit suicide over a 3 week shutdown when it was on is not doing it because of the shutdown. There are other problems with that person.
The Japanese have elevated this method of saying you're "so sorry" to a ritual.
