Teen Commits Suicide Due to Bullying

[dbgtz]

What about the part where I said I understand why some might believe that suicide is a cowardly thing to do? Once again ignoring what I have already said to try and make your point seem more valid. |-)

Why might I think this then? Also not gonna lie, I just didn't realise you posted that, I forgot.

I agree, it is simply that way put. I would like you to find another word in the lexicon to replace "cowardly" with, because facing the trauma is for people who are strong enough. Cowardly can be replaced with mentally weaker, degenerated etc. So I see know problem with what dbgtz is saying.

Not sure what the last sentence is meant to be, but to say that someone who commits suicide is "mentally weaker" is just not right in my book as surely they have the strength to choose to kill themselves, but that is again just opinion.

Convenient. And because you fail to realise that some people cannot cope with their life and simply feel they have nothing to live for. But I'm done with you now, you clearly have so much ignorance inside of you that I'm not going to change, but I hope you can stop being so foolish one day.

So clearly you go against the whole point of you saying "open your mind" when you cannot understand my views, and then call me ignorant?

I can understand your views even if I think they are ridiculous and stupid, you are completely ignorant of mine and others in this thread. Done with you, don't bother responding because we clearly have differing opinions that will not be changing, so I'm done trying to deal with your ignorance.

"because you fail to realise that some people cannot cope with their life and simply feel they have nothing to live for" is not understanding my opinion. You're just going because you know I'm right (about the ignorance thing, not the suicide thing).

We live in the fear of death, but when death is, we are not, when we are death is not. It is more wise to fear birth.

I agree with this, death or, in other words, not existing, is always easier than living. It's why our lives are filled with fantasies and stories to get us seemingly out of the hell we live in and into a world of happiness or easy understanding.

Of course, we can not call this man a coward, as we have people in our army (tend to be unreported) that commit suicide, because of the harassment they get off their squadron or their leaders.

A man can give his life up for his country, but when you belittle a man you give him nothing to live for, and nothing to fight for.

I disagree, matter of opinion.

Not to say that bullying is a good, ok or right thing. However I do not believe it to be the major cause here - it may be the trigger, however this is far more likely the result of neglect of mental health on the part of the parents, the school and american society as a whole, unfortunately keeping an eye on something such as that is actually a very difficult task with some people (Often frustration is bottled up), such as in this case he used the internet as an outlet which meant the normal outlets (Anti-social behaviour, outward depression etc.) would have had a great drop in severity so it would be very difficult to spot that it wasn't just a case of bullying.
