Off yourself if you like.

Slit your wrists.

Go for a swim in boiling oil.

Tell someone you have incriminating information about Hillary.

I don't care.

But stop with the narcissistic "Look at me! Look at ME!" you attention whore.

And do not bring other people into your self immolation. Don't shove it off onto someone else. Take personal responsibility for once in your selfish existence.

Suicide should be legal. A right. It’s called informed consent. Libertarian. Instead what you end with here is somebody else having to clean up the mess.

I will personally not deny GOD his right to determine when or how my life ends. If I am required to suffer in my last days, so be it.

Theres always a mess of some kind when a person dies, there’s inherent legal issues always existent with something like this. Some insurance policies do not pay out if someone self-deletes. Inheritances, ownership transfers of things,...always some kind of mess left.

In Catholicism suicide is a mortal sin. But I have wondered if God,obviously knowing everything about the human brain and diseases of the brain,would forgive a person with a serious chemical disorder of the brain.

I have known a couple of cases where I suspect the person quietly took an early exit. They did it in a way that was discreet and left a minimum of mess.

They would be appalled at this kind of thing.

Satan will be waiting for her and those that murder her.

Suicide should be legal

——————————————————-

Legal? If it’s done, right I’ve never known anyone to be prosecuted over it.

My friend’s mother had Lou Gehrigs...she and her sisters are pretty sure Mom’s man friend and she made an agreement that when she reached a certain point he would help her along. I would not blame them.

I’ve contemplated your question my whole life. My Mother’s cousin committed suicide after spending most of her life battling mental issues. She was a tormented soul that was the kindest, gentlest of people. I was 6 when she died. I asked my Mom if she would be spared from an eternity in Hell because of her illness and my Mom could only say that she hoped so. I hope so, too.

The family needs the suffering to come to grips with God’s plan. Spare God the dropping her butt in hell.

A few years back we went to South Africa to photograph wildlife at Kruger National Park.We were in a group of fellow wildlife fans that included a young German physician,two German medical students and a Professor at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm,specializing in brain disorders and brain research.

During the day we were obviously out looking at elephants,giraffes,etc.But tourists aren't allowed in the park at night (lions love to hunt at night) so we'd sit around a fire and eat and talk.The Professor kind of conducted a class for the young Germans one night...that I,too,found fascinating.

At one point I asked Marten a question about the brain and,unable to give an answer,he just said "scientists know more about the surface of the moon than they know about the human brain".

And yes,both the Swede and the Germans spoke English better than me!

Every one has their point where they say, "Just let me die."

It is something between them and their belief system. Some are active, some are passive, some would not under any circumstances.

But this blaring out to the world?

It is goash beyond belief.

And the concept of "let's openly murder people and call it good" does not end well for any society that embraces it.

She should send her manservant out to score some fentanyl.

“both the Swede and the Germans spoke English better than me!”

A Czech and a Swede told me their excellent English came from watching “Baywatch” and “Alf”.

What’s with the title ‘Dame’? She has been an attention whore for quite a while.
