You shouldn't attempt to discredit his post because of one error.

  You shouldn't read more into a post than is there. You might find yourself arguing with someone you don't disagree with.

You need to avoid narcissistically "correcting" other people's "errors" when the only error is yours. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_legislation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_legislation Quote: "Suicide has historically been treated as a criminal matter in many parts of the world." At this point a civilized person would post an apology for being utterly wrong, but, having spent my life dealing with people like you, I won't hold my breath for that outcome.

  I'm sorry you don't understand present tense vs past tense. I'm also sorry your narcissism doesn't permit you to admit an error. I'm further sorry that you're unable to read past the first sentence of Wikipedia articles.

    > I'm sorry you don't understand present tense vs past tense. I didn't include a tense, past or present -- you wrongly assumed one, and there are still places where suicide is a crime, enough to justify my original claim. > I'm also sorry your narcissism doesn't permit you to admit an error. I used a literature reference to prove that the error is yours. Here's another: http://news.fredericksburg.com/newsdesk/2013/08/02/in-virginia-suicide-is-a-crime/ http://news.fredericksburg.com/newsdesk/2013/08/02/in-virgin... It seems that suicide is still a crime. For my one-word claim to be true, suicide need only be a crime somewhere, and it is. Man up -- apologize for wasting our time dealing with your ignorance.

      > I didn't include a tense "There are" is present tense. As is my statement, "is not". > there are still places where suicide is a crime The relevant jurisdiction is Palo Alto, California, USA. > Man up Apologize for your disgusting sexism. > apologize for wasting our time No one forced you to comment in the first place, much less respond to my comment. Apologize to yourself for wasting your own time. Your Virginia link is absurd. There can be no crime in the United States without a codification of the crime. "Common law crime" is flatly unconstitutional and unenforceable. Your eagerness to argue this point would be amusing if it didn't reach clinical significance. I pointed out a minor error in a comment I otherwise agreed with, and you've just completely blown up. Seek help. For the record, by the way, I corrected you because the notion that suicide is a crime adds to the social stigma and discourages people from seeking help. You were doing a small disservice to society, and I wanted to undo that damage and make the world a little better. I'm sorry you can't stand that.

By definition it's international. Only a narcissist would try to claim that an Internet post can only apply to where he is personally sitting. >> Man up > Apologize for your disgusting sexism. Precisely how does "Man up" disparage women? Think before answering, and again -- I won't hold my breath for that outcome. > Your Virginia link is absurd. That's an interesting way to acknowledge that you have been defeated by readily available evidence. It's a defense typical of narcissists. > "Common law crime" is flatly unconstitutional and unenforceable. Suicide is illegal in Virginia. Which word didn't you understand? Or do you believe that (as just one example) common-law marriage isn't an enforceable contract? > I pointed out a minor error ... You did no such thing. You were wrong, I was right, I proved it, now you're displaying classic narcissistic hand-waving behavior. > You were doing a small disservice to society ... By pointing out that suicide is a crime, and then proving it? Nice distortion of logic. > I wanted to undo that damage and make the world a little better. And, according to you, all evidence to the contrary, you're not a narcissist. It's a good thing that, unlike suicide, being a narcissist is not a crime.
