Brad Delp dead at 55

My penny on the matter.

I do support suicide and assisted suicide as well as euthanasia. I consider is ANYONE'S right to take your own live (as long as you don't endanger anyone else).

Since self-preservation is the most intense instict in any living being, suicide is therefore (in my book) an act of high bravery to overcome the most intense instinct. It's not cowardice, not puss, no nothing. A very big (and final) decision like TSO said.

I'm with you buddy.
I've gone through a lot of things,things that made me want to kill myself. And I never tried to go against it, though I never did it, Id always think of the ones I'd miss and how they'd felt after my death. I believe it's the choice of the one who no longer wants to live, and no one elses.
Just back over hundred years ago, ppl used to do it for lesser reasons, and everyone understood that, that person has his/her reasons and that's all that needed to be said.
may he rest in peace and suffer no more.

no offense to everyone hear because i respect your opinions but forgive me if it ticks me off at what you are saying... if i learned something from Tess's death is life is too precious to take it away... she had wanted at one point felt suicidal and such but she regarded how it would of affected me and her family (especially her daughter)... all said and done it may be easy for you guys to say such things but when it comes down to it I think you would think otherwise when death faces you (either yours or your loved ones)and you most likely would not bring yourself to do it (either your own life or euthanizing someone)... I believe in a individuals choice to end their life in the event of a physical terminal illness but not at any point for a mental illness... a mental illness can be cured or treated but a terminal illness can't and is painful... could I have done Tess's request and helped her kill herself... I don't think i could but then again I did not have to face that because she never asked me to and wouldn't of had she survived in October because she thought about others before herself... and i love her for that as much as just for being Tess... and to have been in my life... :: sigh :: i need a break from this forum and/or internet... not good for me...
