Wow... what a bummer. Had to happen...
Florida Teen's Suicide Streamed Live On Internet

Some thought the event was a hoax until Abraham Biggs Jr.'s body was found by police.

A Florida teen who intentionally overdosed streamed his death on the Internet while it occurred Wednesday.

Others watched online as 19-year-old Abraham Biggs Jr. died. The Broward County Medical Examiner's Office told The Miami Herald that he took a deadly mixture of prescription drugs.

Media reports and comments on discussion boards -- including some posts from those who claimed to have witnessed the incident -- vary on whether Biggs actually ingested the drugs on camera. Accounts also vary as to whether people may have encouraged him to kill himself.

While some members of online discussion boards posted chat messages showing that at least one person encouraged Biggs, the timestamp and corresponding video archives seem to indicate that it was after Biggs fell unconscious or died.

Perfection is a silly ideological concept that no one can achieve.

No one can ever be perfect.
 
It's a judgement-call.

So we agree that no-one is perfect.
 
Why do you think homeless people chose to be homeless?

People are free to choose. Homelessness is not forced upon them.

Ah contraire, homelessness is forced upon people that can't afford to pay the rent everyday.

It was just a matter of time, unfortunately....
 
America has adopted a culture of death and nothing illustrates that more than this country just having elected a President who supports the evil, brutal and vicious practice of ripping a baby from its mother's womb and murdering it.

I agree with you on America's Culture of Death and I agree that the Pope's view on sexuality is THE healthiest, wealthiest and happiest life style choice. The problem is that the Netherlands has one fifth the abortions, drug use is 15% vs. 85% by the time a child is 18 and we won't even go there with the violent crime rates.

We can not save every baby, but at least let us try to save every baby we can.
