I don't feel that if someone wishes to take their life we have a right to stop them. It is their existence, their experience, their decision, their right. We should not encourage it, but if we want to reduce the number of people who do it, then help them with their problems, don't go hunting them down, and locking them up in white room - mattress walled asylums in straight jackets, doped up on who knows what.
It's dangerous to allow the government the ability to predict, and then potentially take action based on it, far more dangerous than simply leaving people alone, even should they choose that awful path. People are creative, if they really want to leave this world, they will.
