How has this place not changed in 4 years? Mine is only one opinion and is not the opinion necessarily of the site. Don't blame or profile the entire site simply because my opinion in the soapbox differs from your own - in fact, looking at the "poll" here, I'd say your opinion may be in the majority, and mine in the minority (at least here on this site... which based on demographics, I can understand).
At any rate, let me explain my above statement better as I can see it could be taken incorrectly, or at least not as intended, especially if out of context. For that, I do apologize.
What I am saying is that if you believe there is a stigma about suicide, and I agree there is (I work hard every day to try to change that), then you should take steps to try to decrease the stigma. Pro Suicide Sites only ADD to the stigma. It may not appear as such if you are in the inside looking out, but from the outside looking in... people who are not suicidal quite naturally look negatively upon anything that is pro-suicide (hence, increasing the stigma). A person who is depressed should be seeking help, and it is understood that the depression can create a barrier that prevents that, but sites that would promote suicide as "a good thing" are stigma fuel. This is what helps maintain the stigma and that which prevents people from becoming better educated about suicide prevention awareness. Your own post seemed concerned about the stigma that exists, and I was only attempting to add comment as to a potential, and likely, contributor to such.
That all said, I'm not really sure why, on a pro life site such as this, we are discussing whether or not pro suicide sites are good or bad. ???
