>>635888It's not really outsmarting the system though. It's within system lines. It's not sneaky, I mean maybe if there was no precedent it would be dubious, but there is. Suicide for the sake of itself is bad, but it certainly isn't if it's in service of self sacrifice.
Something like suicide by cop is trying to outsmart the system. Kinda like how in 17th century and 18th century Europe suicidal people would kill babies in order to get capital punishment but because the babies are innocent they go to Heaven even if the are killed so it apparently doesn't count as a sin because of that (not sure how that negated them killing someone though)
By the way, what you say reminds me the other day a random friend made me open his car in his yard so he could get his drink out of the cupholder because apparently they're not allowed to open car doors I guess. I thought I was gonna get jumped or abducted or something. But he just wanted me to open the door.
I didn't see this post before and I don't feel like bumping this back up so…
