Robin Williams dead at 63
Barmymoo:
I don't think that's fair. It is incredibly courageous to take your own life. That doesn't mean it's a good thing to do, but the idea that it's the coward's way out is unfair and untrue. It's also extremely insulting to say that mentally ill people can't make rational decisions about their life. You contrast suicide with euthanasia; euthanasia isn't offered, even in places where it is legal, to people who have crippling mental illnesses that no amount of treatment has improved, despite the fact that a mental illness is just as agonising and debilitating as a physical one.

Agreed, might be worth a mod edit.
