Why Do We Have That Relationship With Suicide?

The need for justice that we feel when a homicide occurs motivates us to take a greater collective interest in it. We do seem to be far more focused on that form of violence than the lethal self-directed violence that is suicide. And so I think it doesn't mobilize people in the same way that murder does or even in some ways accidents. It's deeply saddening and depressing and grim, very, very grim.
