I dunno, to make it easier or something.....

I don't really get it, what if they enjoyed those last minutes of their life? What if they actually thought "These are some nice people, I could enjoy my life with them", would they tell that or would they shut up about it?
What if every single one thought that but shut up about it.... they died for nothing.

Suicide is very selfish by the way.

No it isn't. The person who tries to stop the potential suicider from killing themselves by making them feel guilty about causing pain for the ones that love them is selfish.

Taking the initiative to take ones life is rather frightening... doing it in groups makes it more uh...comforting, and also ads an odd element of peer pressue, as well as reassurance.
