Unfortunately, they were clueless about his deep-seated feelings...  There was no one to probe his thinking...

Riiiiiight...
I find it kinda messed up that the article author said "As police entered the room, the audience's reaction was filled with Internet shorthand: 'OMFG,' one wrote, meaning 'Oh, my God.'" Let's hope we don't have a bunch of computer illiterate people running around talking about OMFG and thinking they're only saying oh my god.

Having an online video streaming of a suicide is kinna like a snuff film? Just asking, 'cuz I don't know--meaning, I need the GC lawyers to let me know.
Because watching a snuff film--isn't that illegal?
ETA: Answered my own question... This was a suicide not a murder and people watched it and no one who watched it felt compelled to stop it, if there was a way. But it is not a "snuff film" based on the current definition. But it could easily be classified as one along with the language we find in kiddie porn and abuse...

First, that is the stigma attached to seeking qualified care by licensed professional healthcare providers stops...
Read this paper, it is quite disturbing. If this is what is going on in disparity communities, while quite unfortunate, it suggests that all of us need to be vigilant in reaching out to people who call out to the universe... The ignorance is stifling, and the stigma is killing us...
I have already noticed the comments written by those who are hurting and suffering have some pathological implications... My knowledge is only cursory and circumspect, but, it is quite obvious that those who suffer need some gentle but firm encouragement to seek professionally licensed care and provide tools they can use to become an advocate of their own health, at least mentally. Basically, it puts the ball in their court to seek their most optimum care. And finally its their choice. If they choose differently, welp, it cannot be due to not knowing.
Support can motivate and bolster individuals to triumph. Chalk it up to what happens to the "written word" and "reading those words"...
