Robin Williams and Suicide

Hello,

Interesting conversation last night with my wife.

A fox news broadcaster (strangest looking human on earth) Sheppard Smith was talking about Robin Williams killing himself and said something about him being a coward. Felt pretty harsh to say, hours after the news broke. I mentioned this to my wife and I commented that it was a bit harsh and that I empathized with Robin Williams for being in that dark of a place. My wife sorta shrugged it and said its selfish and it is cowardly. She was pretty harsh about it(kinda put me off how she felt about it), while I just felt bad for the guy. Mind you, I'm the opposite of a bleeding heart liberal who feels bad for everything. I just feel bad for people who can't get out of thier own way.

Curious, what are your views on this? And are your views consistent with most people in tough spots (not feeling bad for homeless, or no sympathy for drug addicts etc)?
