+340 If someone coaxes or councils another person to commit suicide then they should be charged with murder/attempted murder, amirite?

No they should be charged with being a good friend, for having the guts to tell that person what no one else will. I mean if the persons life sucks so bad they need to end it, lying to them things will get better, isn't a friendly thing to do. I would be like, "You want to kill yourself? What do I think of it? Go for it, man! Your life sucks, I'm surprised you're only thinking of this now!" Besides unless you brain wash the person into committing suicide, then it's the person who does the killings fault... you're probably American, the only place where it's socially acceptable to not take responsibility for your own actions

I agree with you that no one "makes" someone commit suicide, but I think other's actions can definitly prompt someone to

If you tell a person who isn't suicidal, to kill himself, s/he's probably going to shrug it off and not do it. How is a person supposed to know the other person will actually listen to them and kill themselves? You can tell the same message to a hundred people and only one of them might end up committing suicide. Does this make the other 99 people wrong? Or does this mean that the person who told these people the message is wrong?

I'm not disagreeing with you, if someone kills themselves just cause one person told them to then it seems they already had problems

Okay and you're right about that

I think it's called murder in the second degree. Too much Law and Order

This reminded me of Sherlock, that British show my friend showed me. The first episode was about a guy who talked to someone and got them to kill themselves.
