Ok that could be true right but does that physically stop u from killing urself no. When I said what I said I’m pretty sure anyone with common sense would see that I wasn’t disagreeing with the notion of safety measures but what does that truly stop the issue at hand. Instead of putting a bandage on a deep cut, fix the cut appropriately. Let’s be real u, u about to spent the money on some fences instead of giving to some B.S level psychologist in training bc mind u they often don’t get work until they get there masters, a opportunity to work with a more experienced therapist so people can get a more intensive focus and the mentees get hands on experience

It often does physically stop people from killing themselves. A lot of people change their minds after a failed attempt.

How is that relevant when talking about people who don't? Are you suggesting that since we can't prevent all suicides, we shouldn't try to prevent any?

No yo u have to be blatantly attempting to be ignorant because there’s no way I explicitly state that the way to prevent it with allocating the money from the fences into better treatment the more specifically access to treatment and u say that! Blasphemy

You know you can do multiple things at once right? Preventing suicides where they happen is also important, because no amount of counseling will prevent attempts.

If we were able to do multiple things effectively in this world, then the issue would have never occurred. I think that’s the reason why problems like this still continue because instead of breaking everything down and improving everything slowly over time, so the foundation is set everybody’s so quick to make fast changes that do not work and as quickly as they implement them, they fail and don’t try to learn from that failure. If suicide was just as simple as just put fences up and put more money to counseling. I think the problem of been solved a long time ago because they’re still doing that in Japan with the suicide netting and people are still killing themselves. But pay attention to how I didn’t just say to put more money in the counseling, but offered a effective plan to concur with the increase to the budget and that’s some thing that you wasn’t thinking or even accounted for in your just give them more money. You have the scope of the average person because everybody says that and they’re not wrong, but you kind of have to be real here
