This is possibly the best tribute I've seen/heard so far.. this guy does impressions of Robin all the time, great way to pay tribute.
I'm sure Robin Williams is rolling in his grave because he momentarily retracted his RIP in this thread. The humanity!Nah, you just said something Blue when you weren't in the man's shoe. Put yourself in a position like he was, check the severity of it, then make a judgement.
The fact that someone commits suicide and you don't even have the decency to say RIP is Blue. Doesn't matter even if you think suicide is stupid, because so do I.
It doesn't bother me like it bothers most. I may be oversimplifying the issue, but it is YOUR life, and I am all about civil liberties. If you come to the conclusion that your life is no longer worth living and you want to end it, that is your personal right. People say it is a selfish act? Bullshit. Do you want to know where the selfish motives truly lie? The people who selfishly want a person to continue living on this Earth against their own will... that is truly selfish. Why should a potentially suicidal person stick around just because others want them to? That is greed, not the act of suicide itself. If a person finds suicide as a release, for whatever reason, the people around them that cared for them should celebrate that release, not condemn the departed for it.I always felt like going out by one's own hand is somewhat positive, well maybe not necessarily positive, but I definitely don't find it to be weak or negative or anything like that. Why stick around if you're not enjoying life, or simply just want to end it. Whether it be because your suffering, or maybe even accomplishing everything you set out to do in life, I don't see a problem with killing yourself instead of waiting out the inevitable.

Ehhhhh, that's a tough comment. For example, if I'm about to give a speech to a group of teenagers about suicide, I would never say anything like you just stated. In a round about way, you're saying "if life is rough and you feel no way out....it's not a bad thing to just end it and kill yourself...." on the contrary, it is an awful thing to commit suicide and you should never see that as an option as there's always someone who cares about you and you could hurt by doing it. Again, your statement, intentional or not, is not the right way to go about suicide my friend. Believe me, this is coming from someone who has almost killed themself and been through it all.I always felt like going out by one's own hand is somewhat positive, well maybe not necessarily positive, but I definitely don't find it to be weak or negative or anything like that.

If and when we decide to condone people just killing themselves because they are upset with their lives, please just shoot me in the face. That's ridiculous. Sure, you have rights....and you can kill yourself....you act as if people don't have that right...they do. But it shouldn't be condoned. Most people who are suicidal don't really want to kill themselves, too. According to your logic, however, they might as well just load a gun when they're potentially suicidal and kill themselves....It doesn't bother me like it bothers most.

Yeah, but to force someone to take matters in their own hands and take such a painful and shitty death such as asphyxie is fucking inhumane. If only suicide clinics were allowed and suicide was actually a right, then maybe robin william's family would take some small comfort in knowing his death was painless and dignified.If and when we decide to condone people just killing themselves because they are upset with their lives, please just shoot me in the face.

It's not greedy for friends, loved ones, or family to want that person around either. Life is a gift....take advantage of it and live it. Some just don't see that as well as others.
You throwing around a bunch of shitty motivational speaker cliches doesn't make your point any more valid.If and when we decide to condone people just killing themselves because they are upset with their lives, please just shoot me in the face.

Nice way to dodge everything I said....sigh.....typical Dolph. Another pointless encounter.You throwing around a bunch of shitty motivational speaker cliches doesn't make your point any more valid.

To force one to either go on living a miserable and hopeless life or have a painful and salvage death is quite selfish. I'm not saying people should have suicide in the highest of regards or anything like that, it's just that, you know, if we're going to do it anyways, at least give us the rights to go on a more dignified manner
Also, if we do this and allow it....who's going to mandate it? Who's going to decide, yes, you should be able to kill yourself?....like the government? Healthcare professionals OPINIONS? I mean it would be insane and shouldn't be allowed.Yeah, but to force someone to take matters in their own hands and take such a painful and shitty death such as asphyxie is fucking inhumane.

There is nothing to dodge. You have this ideal that every life is sacred and I clearly disagree. If someone is suicidal, they don't view their life as sacred. I know you are going to say people have mental diseases or that people they care about will miss them, but none of that is important to me. If they have it in their head that death is the only way out, more power to them. I view mental disease and someone who wishes to die as natural selection. I don't wake up in the morning wanting to kill myself, so if someone does that is simply nature taking out one of the millions of beings that it will in that day. I also think suicide is a "Trendy" thing in today's society, and if people are that weak minded that they follow a trend as stupid as killing themselves, I have no sympathy for their "precious life".Nice way to dodge everything I said....sigh.....typical Dolph.

Uh, the person wanting to die? How hard is that to figure out?Also, if we do this and allow it....who's going to mandate it? Who's going to decide, yes, you should be able to kill yourself?....like the government? Healthcare professionals OPINIONS? I mean it would be insane and shouldn't be allowed.
