personally, i have no problem with people that want to kill them selfs… thats their choice… hey, life is hard, and its a way out…
but on a more reasonable note, what was this guy thinking… you can’t have someone kill someone else… especially not children >_>
Suicide is one thing… murder is another…

If I were to do something like that, it would be a ’sex party’!
Instead of killing yourself, lets all get off at the same time!
Bring your Mum and Dad!

Yeah being a loser sucks. I guess he thought this would be a way to end his misery. Now the authorities are even taking this relief away from him.
If I were a loser, I’d probably want to buy the farm myself.
