Do people have the right to suicide?

[Luna Lovegood]

People have the right to end there own lives. But this is mainly because we cannot stop people from committing suicide

[Guest Welche]

You have the right to do what they want with your own life.

[kungfuactionjesus]

I hate seeing people die but it is what they choose. I think that no one should comite suicide.

[Luna Lovegood]

Yeah, they shouldn't, but they do, so deal with it.

Yeah but if you take the right away, you think it'll really prevent it? Then you'll take away people's will to choose and think for themselves.

 

It's not a good idea for them to, but they get the final say, not you

[Jericho]

People should have the right to do anything they want if it doesn't physically harm other people. Suicuide = thumbs up. Suicide bomb = thumbs down.

[ragnarok1945]

well yeah, if they're going to suicide and take others with them, THEN that's something we should take from them. Who gave them the right to choose for others?

 

Besides I'd hope they'd at least consult before suiciding

[Jericho]

You can read, and do know the difference between thumbs up and thumbs down, don't you, ragnarok?

[ragnarok1945]

it also depends on the person doing the suiciding under the circumstances for thumbs up and down (only suicide bombing I'd approve is more of a no choice case, where a life must be sacrificed to make the mission succeed)

[Professor Cobra]

Like murder, they can do it, but not legally. But, they will be dead, so it doesn't matter.

[ragnarok1945]

true, but that's merely their cause for their motivation

[Tabris]

I made another thread like this long ago but it got spammed by people who didn't know what were saying.

So do people have the right to suicide?

It is every person's right to do whatever he/she wants to do with their life' date=' even end it. But on the other hand isn't commiting suicide actually comitting a murder therefore it must be stoped by law?

No.

 

They are doing irreperable harm to themselves, their kin, and everyone around him.

 

I will elaborate on this later on when I have the time; let me use the above is a starting point for future discussions.

I believe that it is right for people to commit suicide. It is the person's choice whether or not to take their own life when they are in a time of depression or something of that nature. Despite it actually being "murder", no consequence would take place because they are already dead unless they were stopped. Then they would just be tried for insanity and then be placed in a mental institute.

[ragnarok1945]

or put in jail because they were trying to escape a punishment by taking the easy way out

[Monkey]

Why would you go to jail filled with rapists, killers, and other criminals if your a mentally challenged person. That would be a fault on the jury and court for putting you there because you will be killed or beaten up there. Most likely you will be issued to a mental institution if you considered suicide.

[ragnarok1945]

I'm saying if a killer is caught and he tried to commit suicide to escape prison time, that's needs to be prevented

[Monkey]

Yes that needs to be prevented, then he/she will be sent to the cookoo house or the whacky shack

[ragnarok1945]

no, just to prison is enough for such a crime. The insane asylum will know he's not really insane.

[Monkey]

True, true, the person will probably be put on high security watch or something....

[ragnarok1945]

all you have to do is put him in a 6ft by 8ft cell and everything should be fine. Unless he has an insider in the prison, he won't be able to escape the sentence given to him

[Jericho]

Won't be able to escape his sentence in a 6x8 room? If you wanted to bad enough, you can kill yourself by ramming your head into a wall, like what they have in the prisons, hard enough to break your neck or crush your skull.

[Valkyrie Lupia Blitzer]

Yes.

 

Not that they should.

Well obviously he's going to be monitored inside the cell, I doubt the security guards will be dumb enough to simply ignore him all together

It only takes 1 or 2 good trys. He'll be dead before the guard can get his keys out.

[Spire]

Not that it's a good thing...

 

But yes, if someone wants to end there own life, it's up to them. If someone is that miserable that they want to kill themselve, why stop them and make them suffer more?
