Doesn't really work that way. What makes it selfless is doing it yourself.

But a wife that euthanizes her suffering husband is a hero.

It can be hard to work up the courage to kill yourself though.
And what about suicidal teenagers? Should parents start being heroes and assisting their children to kill themselves?

"The memorial service for Robin Williams is expected to be a small, private affair. But that hasn't stopped members of the Westboro Baptist Church from suggesting that they might picket the event."
"Westboro, a Kansas-based group known for hate-filled protests sometimes targeting gays and their supporters, has mentioned the idea of a protest on Twitter several times in recent days."

I have a question. Is it illegal to use a public forum/social media to ask for the deaths of someone/a group of people? I realize that putting a hit on someone is illegal but I wouldn't be offering any reward, just providing an address (3701 SW 12th St, Topeka, KS 66604 across the street from a cleverly painted rainbow house) and asking if anyone has the kindness in their heart to wipe out every human there.

Would there be potential legal repercussions to such an act? If so what are they? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Yeah, I saw the news story about this. What a bunch of inbred idiots. Robin Williams played a gay man in a movie once, The Bird Cage, so it calls for picketing and protesting and trying to upset his family, apparently. After which all of them will gather for their usual activities; sister-fucking and collecting roadkill for their church end-of-summer barbecue.

Was there a link between Robin Williams dying and the tranny porn starting?

Someone got too attached to this movie...

Number one is the selfish mentality. I don't want to deal with pain, I don't want to fight for only 10% chance to live, I don't want to go through surgery, I don't want to risk the unknown, I don't want to risk my memories, I don't want to go through chemo, me me me me me, etc...

Whether loved ones feel the above decision is right or wrong by the person commiting suicide is not relevant. The decision to go through with suicide is still selfish.
There is a complex relationship between our personal narrative and our biochemistry. It is true that you can affect your mood and biochemistry through an improvement in personal narrative and thought processes. However, there evidence to suggest that the inverse is also true; personal narrative and thought processes change almost reflexively as a response to "efficiency of neurotransmitter function," for lack of a better phrase. We see this in medications which are sometimes effective. Another thing among many to consider is that the atrophy of the hippocampus can occur during early stages of brain development (you can't fault a child for having a shitty childhood), and we are not certain that neurogenesis due to CBT and other narrative-improvement therapies can fully restore healthy brain matter in all cases. And this is only part of the issue.

If you have a healthy mind though, it is selfish of you not to do a little legwork before you piss out your stupid, shitty opinion.

I do not see the point you are attempting to make. No one is arguing mental illness is not real, or mental illness can not alter brain chemistry over time.

Sorry but i'm thinking about myself in all circumstances first. I love my kids but something was wrong with me and i was not in the right mind to be with them then why be there. Personally i have mental issues that i deal with. When my kids get older i will sit them down and tell them all about it and what i'm going through. Because there might come a day like Robin that i choose not to continue on in this world. When that day comes i wouldn't want it to be a shock or surprise to anyone. Not sure about you but the day i can't wipe my own ass is the day i dont want to be around anymore. I have too much self respect to let someone else do that for me. Hopefully though i go before that day comes.
