I disagree, why should so many people have their lives disrupted because of the actions of one man, I doubt anyone has anything but sympathy for people at their lowest ebb however that goes out of the window for me when you have people chucking themselves under tube trains and the like having seen the trauma the drivers go through.
That's a bit harsh..What about the disruptions that people suffer when accidents occur.Shouldn't we still have sympathy for anyone injured under those circumstances? If you substitute mental illness for injury why should the circumstances be any different?Surely someone threatening to suicide count as mentally ill?So isn't disruption a small price to pay under the circumstances?
