Don't like the use of the word Martyrdom here. Although there are quite a few definitions of the word, in general it means someone killed themselves to send a message or prove a point. I very much doubt Aaron killed himself to be a martyr, but largely because he was depressed (in the clinical meaning) and couldn't see a way out or a future.

- SeanDav 14y agoThat he he was forced into that position is what outrages.
