I have not in any of my posts attempted to justify the student's action, but I have attempted to understand his actions and I have questioned those who choose to laugh at his actions. Understanding may provide insight in preventing future incidents more than your laughter.

You can't prevent future incidents by being so tragic! People freak out and kill themselves all the time. You can't micromanage peoples lives. Don't waste your time trying to understand. Just know that people like me aren't going to cry over their graves. In an absolute free society anyone could take their life anytime without anyone throwing them in jail or sending them to a shrink if they survive.

I think this suicide is funny. It is pure stupidity on display by the suicidee.

Laughter is the correct response. Too much "understanding" can result in other deaths.

Self-pitying weenies end their lives with the hope that ("finally") everyone will feel sorry for them. If people react by playing the blame game and feeling "so sad and betrayed", it only encourages another Pity Partier to do the same thing.

On the other hand, would he commit suicide if he knew that everyone would laugh at him? Probably not.
