Rest in Peace Hunter Thompson
Thomspon, Hemmingway, Plath, Sexton...
All of these people have many things in common: they were great writers: they were troubled souls: they killed themselves. While I understand the point that Torog makes about personal responsibility, I do believe that one should be allowed to terminate their own life. I would argue that their death could well serve as a lesson for others, not as a signpost for other like minded individuals. BTW, the logic you employ in your comment, "...if by your praise of the man,someone else thinks that it's okay to commit suicide,because one will be praised and not criticized." is amazingly boneheaded, and does not really stand up to your other arguments; you might want to rethink that.
