If I lived in San Fran I would be depressed. Sadly, every day the depressed people of the City will face a billboard telling them to die.
"A new billboard in San Francisco is drawing criticism from suicide-prevention experts, who fear it may encourage desperate people to take their own lives.
The sign, which went up last week at Howard and South Van Ness, reads: My Life My Death My Choice. It provides a Web address for Final Exit Network, a New Jersey-based organization that supports people who wish to end their lives to alleviate suffering from debilitating or fatal illnesses.
Final Exit Network paid for the billboard and said it hoped it would provoke discussion about the right to die.
But suicide-prevention experts say that the billboard could lead those who are suicidal over the brink."
Thanks to labor policies, tax policies and corruption the city of San Fran is about to die. It has inoperable cancer--liberalism--and has a $483 deficit today--one billion dollars in two years. The city has dying from suicide, so why the need for a billboard. They need all the people they can get, alive, to pay the bills.
These are sick people who need medical care or at least get back on their meds. This is what society needs, along with billboards for hotels, fast foods, we need one telling us to kill ourselves.
"Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in the United States, according to the American Association of Suicidology, a nonprofit organization aimed at preventing suicide. There are about 100 suicides a year in San Francisco, according to San Francisco Suicide Prevention, which provides emotional support for people in crisis.
Forty-five years ago, San Francisco had the highest suicide rate in the world. In 1962, the city developed the first crisis hotline in the United States, a model now replicated around the country. Since then, the annual suicide rate in San Francisco has dropped by half."
With Obama as president, Arnold calling himself a Republican, the deficits, the unions, the drugs, the illegal aliens, the actor Gavin Newsom as Mayor, I understand why people in San Fran are depressed--maybe moving rather than billboards promoting suicide would be better?
