Discussion Here's the last thing I'm gonna say to the folks coming in from NYT, or just generally here for journalism or outrage-viewing

If you disagree with what's going on here, that's fine. If you think this site should be gone, I get it. But whatever you do, PLEASE respect the privacy and humanity of the people on this site. Don't use random excerpts of posts without permission in articles, don't disrespect the deceased or the families of the deceased, don't disregard the opinions of the suicidal on the basis that they're "irrational", don't look down on the people here as if you're superior to any of us, just treat us like fucking people. Have some fucking compassion for people who are hurting. I'm incredibly worried about folks on here getting doxxed or tracked by people who think they're being good samaritans and saving lives. Respect the privacy of others just like how we respect yours in turn. We are not going to deny your right to be here, just please have some fucking decency.

You're absolutely positively correct. If this county had more compassion, cared more for fellow human beings, and everyone had the right to "death with dignity" perhaps there would be better support systems. Pax
