ABC News is now reporting that Tony Scott had an inoperable brain cancer. Is that why he committed suicide yesterday?

He was Ridley Scott's brother, I didn't know that.
So sad when someone does this. But what a shock that two major directors come from the same family. You know what they say, the line between genius and insanity is often blurred.

If only America's laws weren't governed by religion (they're not supposed to be) he wouldn't have had to jump off a fucking bridge |

I guess mental disorders are all made up then.

Tell us what a pussy he was then | the point is revscenes traditional attitude of berating/belittling/antagonizing/etc/etc anyone who "holds up traffic", etc, because they're wanting to commit suicide/committing suicide/ failing suicide / committed suicide

Clearly this guy offed himself because he was going to die anyways, and had no other means of doing it since the doctors won't put you to rest. Killing yourself because you're depressed is completely different, you have a chance of overcoming it.

Brain cancer or not, I don't get the whole "get mad at someone for committing suicide" thing. It's his life, he can do what he wants with it. He doesn't owe you anything. His wife and kids should be mad, but then we don't know his mental health state either.

I think people get mad (or dissapointed) that often that when people commit suicide they could have gotten help, etc.
