This is one of the most hypocritical things I've discovered suicide and society. Suicide is legal though a majority speak ill of it and never believe it's justifiable unless in cases of terminal illness.
Homicide however, doesn't receive the same stigma. Though illegal with many exceptions, one can argue that the social support for it (believing it's justified) is always there. For example a father killing a pedophile etc...Even when it's illegal the social support can overturn the legal status. As well as that many wars are technically illegal (Iraq War) but get a lot of social support and are never questioned.
How can this be?
