    Assuming that your question was genuine (the downvoters probably assume you’re a troll), I am just philosophizing. A lot of conservatives have a complete lack of empathy for other people and will often become angry at seeing people who present as “weak”. It’s the way that bullies work–they look for the vulnerable people and target in on them for harassment. I am convinced that conservatives can’t handle the concept of suicide. They have spent their lives not really introspecting and so never have the capacity to feel that way. I feel that they react emotionally and violently to the thought, which is what leads to so many police officers simply shooting and killing people who wanted to commit suicide.

    Google it, you’ll find 5-10 or so articles about this EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
