This is so wrong on so many levels. I'm not going to scratch the surface....

But this should happen at American Idol if anywhere....


'BAND'S SUICIDE BATTLE

A rock group says it will go ahead with an on-stage suicide during a concert in the US next weekend, in defiance of a hastily-enacted law designed to scuttle the plan.

Hard-rock band Hell on Earth said a suicide by a terminally ill person would take place during a concert on Saturday in St Petersburg, Florida, to raise awareness of right-to-die issues.


The city council unanimously approved emergency legislation making it illegal to conduct a suicide for commercial or entertainment purposes, and to host, promote and sell tickets for such an event.

'While I still think it's a publicity stunt, we couldn't sit idly by and let somebody lose their life,' council member Bill Foster said.

A judge granted the city a temporary injunction against the band, preventing them from advertising the show and allowing the suicide.

But band leader Billy Tourtelot said: 'The show will go on.'

Tourtelot, 33, said the concert will be played before 'a select few people' at an undisclosed location in St Petersburg and will be shown live on the band's website.

He wouldn't disclose any details about the terminally ill person or say how the death would take place.

The Florida-based band, known for such outrageous on-stage stunts as chocolate syrup wrestling and grinding up live rats in a blender, created the furore by announcing that the suicide would happen at the State Theatre in central St Petersburg.

But the theatre's owner, David Hundley, promptly cancelled the band's show, and another venue also turned away the event.

Tourtelot said the band was aiming to raise awareness that physician-assisted suicide should be legalised in Florida.'

I guess if you don't believe in god, then commiting suicide is no big deal. Once again you are supposed to live your life, not end it because you're sick. Every life has value, it's ashame that people don't see it that way. So you are stuck in a bed and can't get out, but you can help out folks in the future by letting modern medicine work on you and make progress in finding cures for terminal illnesses. I will admit that I'm a tad shallow but nobody here can convince me that killing ones self no matter what the circumstances are, is best. Death should happen when it is supposed to not when you want it to.

Yeah that knife thing is sick and wrong. Also the one where a guy is lying on the ground blindfolded and they shoot him with an ak-47 and a chunk of his face gets shot off. Soooooo wrong and disgusting.

Thats so fucked up, i dont know why anyone would want to watch someone kill them selves... and how do they know the terminally ill person really wants to kill him self, how do we weven know that the band didnt just tell the guy that he wanted to, if they told him that he wanted to kill him self over a period of time i wouldnt doubt that the guy just started to believe taht he wanted to...
i dont really know but thats a really fucked up thing

i think that the bad should just kill themselves if they want to make a point about suicide, living their lives the way they are and doing things like this and putting live rats in blenders is just suffering for the rest of the world, and they should kill themselves if they really believe in assisted suicide so much

Last time i checked, it does not say anywhere in the bible that VICTIMS of suicide go to hell. As you said yourself, they are victims of a disease, depression or the sort, and should be helped through it. i think the same goes for the terminally ill. It is a proven fact that alot of them are depressed and should receive professional help. I think suicide is wrong and should be avoided at all costs, but they DO NOT GO TO HELL.

^ I don't have a bible with me, so I can't quote it specifically, but it does state in the bible(the old testament)that your soul will be damned to hell if you kill somebody(and it doesn't say unless your at war either), take the innocense of a child(sexual abuse) and taking ones own life. There are no clauses or fine print stating unless of course a human doctor says your going to die then by all means take your own life. Before anybody gets their panties in a bind, let me say this I'm not an authority on the subject this is just my interpetation of what is said in the bible. someone else might read it and get a whole different meaning to it. Life is a privilege and can be snatched away at a moments notice so take advantage of every second. I try to laugh every day and always hug and hold and kiss my wife and kids everyday several times. Let the people you love know it cause you might lose out on the chance.

God would have taken most of these people with terminal illnesses LONG ago, it's unnatural for us to keep them alive and suffering just because we can.

jibberkid, God will forgive you, but that doenst mean consequences wont occur. It would be ridiculous for God to not give consequences to those who sin.. They are part of the deterent to sinning, but he will still forgive you no matter what you do. It's not hypocrital if you take the time to learn about it in detail.

sixonthemolly:

You contradict yourself. One of your premises is that the person should stay alive to assist modern medicine in helping people down the road. And then you state that a person shouldn't die when they want to, but when they're supposed to. One thing keeping these people alive IS the modern medicine. So in essence modern medicine can be keeping people alive just to attempt to treat them. As much as assisted suicide goes against 'God's' plans, so does keeping someone alive under severe conditions. The only way I could see you rationalize what you're saying is that the context of 'God's' plan involves the medical treatment keeping them alive, and that is a very convenient rationalization.
