If someone is truly, utterly crazy, maybe they get a pass. Maybe. Only if they are really completely looney tunes. If someone is terminally ill, drugged up and living in a world of pain, and they have talked to everyone and said all their good-byes, then maybe they get a pass too.

But, if someone is just merely depressed, suicide is one of the most unbelievably, horribly, selfish things anyone can ever do, unless they literally have no one who cares about them, which is unlikely unless they are over 90.

With just one stupid, selfish act that person, at least for a while, wrecks the lives of all their family and friends who have to go on after them, mourning and wondering why. Sometimes for years. I guess if someone doesn't care at all about anyone who might care about them, so be it, and it all boggles my mind because life is great, but if isn't great for them for whatever reason, they should at least think about what they might be doing to others.

Screw Junior Seau, he's an idiot, he broke his mom's heart, and I will look down on his tarnished legacy.

Not surprised you don't get it at all... not one single bit.
