Re: Arndale car park..... Suicide

While I understand your point of view accyman, it isn't something that the person committing suicide will(generally) consider....unless they do not mean to do it.
By that I mean that some people will stage a suicide attempt to get noticed.
Someone who jumps from a tall building onto hard concrete doesn't fit this category......they just want to end it.....they do not give a fleeting thought to the consequences, because they know they aren't going to be there to be affected by them.

Somewhere in our town this morning, a family is in bits. Asking themselves why?
Also questioning whether they should have spotted it coming and been able to help.

If you, or your family, has ever been touched by a suicide you will know a little of the pain they are feeling today.
