    damn i understand if you had a bad day but to light yourself on fire... thats a little extreme... kind of like the people killing themselves after seeing Avatar because our world isnt as good as that one.


    weird.

    Wonder if he had health insurance to cover the burn treatment.

    Well, he must, right? I mean, he's getting treatment...

    If he's still getting treatment, he must have really good insurance. Since he's dead and all.

    Nope, wasn't witty. Even I generally try not to speak ill of the recently deceased, self-inflicted or not. If he's in the hospital getting treatment it brings up a bunch of questions and discussion points. If he's gone, then... :dunno:

    Man this guy was not having any luck at all today. Now it's being reported that the cops pepper sprayed him by accident when he was on fire.

    Ouch!

    There's a non-hateful-sounding joke about flaming homosexuals in there somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it.

    I believe that an emergency room must provide treatment despite ability to pay. You still owe the money...
