That shit is fcuked up.
Pain is just weakness leaving the body...
I don't get why people would tell him that he should commit suicide. They should be prosecuted.
I read it today. They egged him on to do it, but it was said that they did not take him serious because he had said he'd commit suicide before. It was like a cry wolf situation. It was ****ed up.

Reminds me of the UK kid who jumped from a rooftop and died while people who saw him were yelling at him to do it.
It's all fun and games until someone dies. ****ers.
Sometimes I just hate people. They're so callous.

I assume [URL="http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23390052-details/British+man+commits+suicide+on+live+webcam/article.do"]this[/URL] is the story in question.
Frankly I think you all are targeting the wrong party. This man was ****ed up. He didn't kill himself because a bunch of anonymous people over the internet told him to. Furthermore, he actually went to a chat room specifically made for insults. No shit people egged him on. They probably didn't realize he was serious until it was too late. He isn't the victim. Those people who witnessed this sick **** are the victims.

I'm actually a member of the forum he posted his suicide on, bodybuilding.com. It's crazy how news of his death has spread worldwide from a relatively small community I belong to.
Actually Gribble, that's not the story on topic. I saw it on Yahoo. If I see it I'll post it

fcking assholes, the world is full of them, this sort of shit doesn't surprise me, people should learn to stand up and do the right thing even if it means being ridiculed. people are so fcking weak and want to be accepted within a group (mob) that they can't see whats actually going on. fckers
Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching
Very, very unfortunate. I have no other words.
i'd watch this clip...

...this is just my perspective on the situation...
I think he wanted to kill himself anyway, but after the users in the chat room egged him on he decided to leave the cam on for their "viewing pleasure".
Another sad testament how something as curable as depression can easily lead to suicide. People need their positive support networks.
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

I remember vaguely a US politician committing suicide in a press conference. Now that was messed up.
