Everyone has and is entitled to their opinion and there are a lot of SIGs out there that I feel are wronger than the wrongest of us! There's no such thing as "society", you cannot point to it, whatever you are responding to is your own perception of what "society" is.

I could talk about or tell anyone I wanted to, take ads out, etc. if I wanted to commit/talk about suicide; I don't think I would want to though because I can not see the "point"?

It is your "right" to kill yourself, no one can stop you if you really want to do that. It would upset the people around you, some of them that had to "clean up" after it it might upset badly (a woman in my apartment building who I knew jumped from her 6th floor apartment down the hall from me) and so the people in our communities who are charge of taking care of the mess one would make by committing suicide do pass laws, etc. Suicide is expensive to a community, both in the "clean up" and in the emotional toll it takes on those left. Family and friends are left with the pain, anger, and confusion of a loved one's suicide, often for many generations. My great grandfather killed himself, all because of pride/money (and probably because he was Irish/genetically inclined to depression?). My grandmother and her sisters and all their families were out of town on vacation and the authorities did not tell my great grandmother until some of them had returned (after my great uncles were told, no doubt, and had to break the news to their wives, my grandmother and her two sisters), the next day. My mother died when she was 40, I was 3; same grandmother whose father killed himself. . . I can't imagine the pain she must have felt.

It's been almost 100 years but there are ripple effects. . .
