indoctrinated or not, suicide is a choice. having your head cut off isn't. that choice makes all the difference.

indoctrination isn't unique to religion. nazis were politically indoctrinated. that doesn't excuse nazi war crimes. we're still talking about adults with moral agency and autonomy

i understand that you're sympathetic to the oppression homosexuals face in america. cool. that's not an especially rare opinion these days. but don't jump the shark. being called a faggot and pushed against lockers sucks and pushes people into depression. it prompts suicides. so does bullying of non-homosexuals. that doesn't make it murder. bullying isn't comparable to being beaten to death for being an infidel

Sorry but I'll have to respectfully disagree. Tormenting a human to the point of wanting to end their own life because the suffering is so unbearable is certainly comparable to murder, the key is to know where to draw the line.

Obviously teasing someone once amounts to next to nothing, but when it happens daily, over a period of months it can be easily argued that is more traumatic than being stabbed. Over years, to the point where someone kills themself? It's not murder technically, but it's so close to that level of wrong that arguing the difference is mere semantics.

Wow. So much more enlightened than a religious ideology.

Not that bullying should ever be accepted but damn we're raising a generation of pussies. Know what I did to stop bullying against me? Threw one down the stairs at school. Fuck him. It stopped it and I didn't even get in trouble for it, but I'll tell you that's the last time anything ever happened. The next year I was a freshman in high school and made friends with seniors while the former bullies in my class were harassed. It's sort of like prison - you may think yourself a badass out in the world but in prison they'll use that ass as their toy.

This thread reminds of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RLQMDchy9k now by the way. Mark Mark Mark.
