A fine example of how something so little explodes in your face. No offense, but that is so stupid. You're THREATENED with suspension and then sent to your hotel room, big fucken' deal, nothing to kill yourself over.

The coming generation of kids are either a buncha wussy, overly sensative pussies, or try hard gangster wannabes. People please stop breeding.

Overly sensitive people don't make it in the real world, if you can't deal with the consequences of reality and your actions then you shouldn't of done them in the first place. Deal with them in a mature manner and you'll get some leverage and the consequences lessen. People, KILLING YOURSELF IS NOT THE ANSWER. Do we not hence that enough??
Maybe I'm just desenstized, oh well, I bet his coach or whoever is feeling pretty guilty now for the kid's death.

personally, i don't see why people kill themselves. we're all going to die sooner or later, so you may as well enjoy what time you're given.

^if you'r enot enjoying the time you have then it's a soluton to "speed up the process" I guess..
stabby, aren't you assuming too much from a small paragraph description? I mean, I'm sure you opinion is based on some sort of personal experience, seeing that it's descriptive and sharp, but for all we know (From the minimal facts presented) the suspension could be totally unrelated to the suicide... did you know this guy or something?

Perhaps the suspension was the final straw that broke the camel's back? It's obvious I didn't know the kid personally, stories like these come up often. Kids in Japan kill themselves all the time with the stress in school, failure to meet perfection and whatnot. You either pressure them too much or not enough, either way, you still end up fucking them up.
No wait, people have thier own consciences and can take control of their own actions. In the end, it was his own choice to take his life without any warning to his friends, family or whatever, kinda insensitive thing to do.... or perhaps his 'pain' was so unbearable it'd be insensitive to stop him.

there's gotta be more to the story than that, no kid in his right mind is gonna kill himself over a little shit like that. he must have been mentally ill or had a bad home life or something, maybe the hockey/weed smokin thing was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
that is fucking sad though, whatever the circumstance he probably could've gotten some help. i guess... but i really can't relate to anyone who would actually off themselves. it's not an option as far as i'm concerned

Isn't anything justifiable to a degree in life? I could sit here railing coke off a naked girl and justify it for being moral and good, doesn't mean it's right. Just like how the suicide could of looked like a justifiable decision in his mind before he did it, no matter how "wack" other people might think it is.
I'm not saying it's right, I sure as hell wouldn't do it unless I was in an intense amount of PHYSICAL, shot gun blown to my face but slowly dying kinda death way. But I'm sure most the people who do commit suicide probably have their own reasons for it, most the time I think it's a pretty weak idea, but maybe they're just the stronger ones cuz they have the guts to do it? Hmmm. BTW, I would have to of started breeding before I could stop, whereas, in this case, I have not breed yet, therefore I cannot stop, but can only be prevented, okay? If you're going to try to insult me at least get it right. I know it's a difficult idea to comprehend, but you'll get it one day.

^^ then if he came from an abusive home and he knew if he were to get caught he wouldget the shit kicked out of him, he shouldn't be doing it in the first place.
i agree with stabby on this one. like seriously HOW BAD could the consequences be that he would have to kill himself? even it his parents would kick the shit out of him, big deal, i doubt they'd kill him. and could he not have talked to his coach about keeping it between them and not get his family involved because he would've been shit kicked or something? there are alot of ways that kid could've dealt with what he did.. and killing yourself is one of the most STUPID ways. killing yourself is not only STUPID its SELFISH. he may have felt that it was the easy way out for him. but he forgot to think about how "easy" it would be for his family and friends. :Peenutt:

IMO, this kid probably had some sort of depression or stress disorder, and this one event probably just made him snap. I highly doubt that he just went and killed himself simply because he was threatened with suspension. He probably had a whackload of other issues and, like Stabby already said, it was probably the last straw for him. Vince, you can sit there and say that suicide is selfish, but is it not just as selfish for us to expect people to keep on living even if they are totally miserable? There's no right or wrong answer when it comes to suicide. I've lived through the toughest possible scenario when it comes to this subject, and having done so, I have a far better understanding of the entire process than those who have never experienced it. When a person has a mental disorder, or multiple mental disorders (such as depression, bi-polar, anxiety, schizophrenia, schizotypal, antisocial, dependent, avoidant, etc), sometimes life seems like more than one can handle. Unless one is a sufferer of one or more of these disorders, it's nearly impossible for one to understand and fully comprehend how they affect the living and thinking process. It's really unfair to judge and call "selfish" someone who has taken their own life because you're not them, and therefore, you can't possibly have been feeling the pain and sorrow that they were feeling at the point where they made their decision.

^ I agree with Nat 100%
"When a person has a mental disorder, or multiple mental disorders (such as depression, bi-polar, anxiety, schizophrenia, schizotypal, antisocial, dependent, avoidant, etc), sometimes life seems like more than one can handle." You guys are in NO position to be passing judgement.
