Haha! Gravityz0r3d!
Oh, no! Suicide! Off the bridge! That's terrible!
First off, there are crisis counseling phones on the bridge. Seriously.
But money concerns should be secondary to the human cost, several board members and citizens said. They urged the district to seek grant money, donations from the public and help from organizations and philanthropists who want to halt the suicides.
"Put up electric cattle guards. I don't care," said a tear-streaked Terry Oxford, whose husband handed out invitations to a memorial service in Salinas for her daughter, Jennifer, who leaped off the bridge early last Friday morning. "If I had $2 million, you'd have it. My child was worth more than that."
If it only saves one life, it's worth it, no matter what the cost. Like, if it only saves one life, killing 500 people is worth it.
And all these folks coming forward crying about how their kids or friends or whatever killed themselves... nice job! Way to be such great friends! It reflects poorly on you when the people around you want to kill themselves, you know.
Just let them jump. It's their life.
