Yeah? Do I also have to have lusted sexually for little kids to judge pedophiles? Do I have to have tried to murder someone before I can judge murderers?

Do I have to study culinary arts before I can comment about the food I eat at a restaurant?

The whole "who are you to judge" thing that ALWAYS comes up is nonsense and is the biggest cop out.

No one is saying depression is a cake walk. I'm saying it doesn't justify suicide. Never. It's selfish and I don't care how much pain you are or you think you are in. Selfish, self-centered. The coward's way out.
