Discussion Should Mean/Bad People Kill Themselves in Your Opinion?

[OutOfThisBody]

Title.

If your argument is that mean people can change - what if they don't want to change? What if they can't change?

if that's sincerely their choice then it's their right to do so, unless they plan to commit suicide to escape from, say, having committed mass murder or anything similarly detestable. but most will probably view it as unfair if they've inflicted a great deal of pain onto others without seeking to absolve themselves first. assuming that they commit suicide in order to be unburdened by pain (and no other reason which might ostensibly called selfish by others), their decision, if non-impulsive, will meet the threshold for sufficient reason

My mind says yes, my heart says no.

 

[LunarLight]

I don't have a say in other people's lives.

 

[Reflection]

No, unless they made some crime which involves taking an innocent's life or anything equal to that.

I want to ctb because I feel like I'm a bad person

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Most people cannot be categorized as either bad or good and a lot of people have their moments where they can be mean. I'd prefer for people to just work on improving themselves to best of their abilities instead of killing themselves because they feel like they are a bad person.

 

[SVEN]

I'm pro choice, so if they wish to ctb that should be their right. If not, then no.

 

[YandereMikuMistress]

Well personally I don't think they deserve to take there own lives, and I'm talking genuinely evil people, if your just a general douchebag I don't have an opinion.

 

[ThisIsMe1357]

It should always be their and their choice only. By that I mean we as a society are not supposed to claim any general "They should" or "They should not". And that includes people who are truly horrible criminals and people who cannot change. The only general "should" in these cases is that they should be punished by law where applicable or locked up in prison to protect the society if necessary. Anything more can only be their personal choice based on how they feel, but it should not be morally required of them.

 

[Trav1989]

I don't have a say in other people's lives.

Yep, can't really decide what others should or shouldn't do because they aren't me. Just because I dislike what another person has or possibly will do doesn't mean I should have a say.
