Does that excuses it, though?

What exactly do you mean by this? Life isn't something that has to even out in the end. Why does she need an excuse for her behavior?

I'm continually mystified at how heartless people are. Compassion isn't easy. It's easy to feel sympathy for the man in this situation since he is so clearly a victim of an unfortunate circumstance.

You trace this woman's life back and I guaran-fucking-tee you will come up with a tragic story deserving of sympathy.

If yes, then, yes, it's always a possibility.

So you don't consider willfully veering your car into a stranger grounds to consider they weren't thinking clearly? Like you suspect maybe she had some sort of fucking motive beyond desperate mental illness?

I would take a fucking hard look at yourself and others who judge this woman this way. How difficult must it be to get help for her? If she can try and obliterate herself in a manner so clearly indicative of mental illness and all she gets is hate.

It's not selfish people like this woman that causes these problems. She is the end result of a society that lets people twist in the wind. Demanding money at every turn and damning you if you can't get it

Want to stop this from happening? Then start being more compassionate towards everyone. Must specifically those who you feel deserve it the least. That's where it's needed the most.

Not because it's a good thing this woman murdered this man. But because the only fucking way to change this situation is by alleviating the immense suffering of mentally ill people.

I stood at the edge of a road once on a really dark day. I was trying to convince one of the drivers to forgive me, to try and imagine how desperate I was and how much agony I was in. You could argue that I was being a selfish jerk but if people are getting to the point that they are throwing themselves infront of cars then perhaps the problem is a bit greater than the individual.

And since then even in a country with socialized medicine I have been unable to get treatment for my mental illness because I've been unable to afford it. Every bit of therapy I've received I've had to pay out of pocket so far and frankly I'm to nutty to hold a job.

So if you dangle someone along month after month on $500 with crushing suicidal tendencies and emotional regulation issues. Are they really the ones to blame when they finally snap?

Do you not understand how being such a huge asshole to people who need help furthers the problem? Compassion for fucks sakes!
