Anyone that is dared to kill themselves and goes through with it without being overwhelmed with consideration for who may miss them or what ramifications their death may cause is, quite frankly, someone that doesn't deserve to live but, moreover... anyone that feels sympathy for someone outside of their family who committed suicide on a dare is just stupid.
Here we have a guy who didn't think of his family first.
He didn't consider any friends or alternate families that would be upset by his death.
He was selfish and thought about himself before others.
He killed himself for the media and the exposure and you should never feed such a thing with attention!
And here we have half of the internet and the rest of the free world who actually care enough about this guy to feel emotionally hurt by it. Anyone who sympathizes with someone who has committed suicide and had more than a handful of reasons to live is sending a message to someone else who is on the verge of committing suicide because they feel that someone might feel sorry for them and their anguish or unhappiness may have a channel in which to tell their story.
Whoever sympathizes with someone as stupid, selfish, and overly inconsiderate of even their own family is a fool.
I wouldn't wish for him to die, but after seeing that he more-than-adequately fits all of the criteria above, I'm glad he's dead.
