I want it to be legalized in the US. What I mean by legalize is make it so one can’t be involuntarily hospitalized for trying to commit suicide, since now one can be involuntarily hospitalized for trying to commit suicide.

I don’t want this thread to be about whether my proof is right, but assuming my proof is right, who will volunteer to have a court hearing to legalize what I’m talking about legalizing AFTER I prove to them that suicide is okay.

Some of us have trust issues, here; you’re probably going to have to provide your proof before you get any serious offers of help on this.
