Anti-Suicide Campaigner Commits Suicide
In a film about suicide prevention, 20 year old Jared Stait told friends that suicide was not the answer. Jared was especially aware of this since 4 of his friends had committed suicide before he reached his senior year, another 2 friends also died.
Last Sunday Jared came home from a party, e-mailed his girlfriend and then committed suicide by hanging himself.
Experts say that anyone who experiences multiple deaths in the way Jared did stands a greater risk of committing suicide.
"It can happen to anyone. There's nobody who is immune to this," said Jared's mother. Jared's family believe he may have suffered a bout of depression brought on by a night of drinking which clouded his judgement.

... Such a happy-go-lucky world this is.

I think everyone has the right to commit suicide, plainly because you are alive. you should have the choice to end that.
it may be selfish, but thats kind of besides the point for the suicidal person.
(and I have a brother who has committed suicide, which just about destroyed both my parents.)

I see your point, but still I disagree qrter... I really don't think suicide is the answer, things go bad and life can really suck at times. Suicide should just never be an option, I understand it in certain situations but usually I think it is the weak way out. I mean no disrespect to you qrter I just disagree
