WTF? They don't give him help, they arrest him?



This is incredibly sad, what? So a cry for help is an arrestable offense now?

(My country has terrible suicide statistics and I personally know of two people who have died by suicide)

The juvenile told police it was a joke "to try to get what he wanted for the game,"

Assuming this is true, they had reason to do something (arrest, I don't know...). It's a psychological attack on the Blizzard employee.

 

Yeah, I know... But suicide is a touchy subject for me.
