I hope someone notified the authorities. I see that his post has one of the highest note counts I've seen - more than 300 :cry: :cry: :cry:

Come on, the guy's out of work for two weeks and he's ready to off himself? That's not even long enough to try qualifying for the myriad assistance programs out there. And his final, heartfelt words to his family include babble about "the 99%"?

Please. This is made-up moonbattery at its finest.

I get the feeling though that DUmmies would love for it to be true if it added to their propaganda.

2. Oh no ...
   
Terrifying.

What is going to happen to his family if he killed himself? How could his wife deal with these burdens?

6. I'm guessing that he believes that the only way he can support his family
   
is by having them cash in his life insurance policy. He's hardly the first to think this way; and if the OWS movement doesn't succeed there will be thousands more like him.

36. Sadly, I don't find it the least bit surprising. (nt)

To their credit, some DUmmies do question it. Of course they are bashed for being insensitive.

life insurance policies are usually voided in the case of suicide.

When I had life insurance, it didn't pay out in case of suicide. I call bouncy.

Edit: Damn, got beat to it.

Stop crying or I'll give you something to cry about.

Some, but not all.  Here in NC, the "Suicide Clause" of an insurance policy states that no death benefits will be paid if death occurs during the first 2 years of the policy because of the intentional loss of life from a self-inflicted injury (Premiums with interest are returned to the beneficiary).

I agree.

More likely, he is abandoning his family like a coward and setting off a'hoboing because the kid with the epilespy is driving him nuts and the wife with type I diabities has ballooned up to the point where he rolls down the mattress at night to wherever she lies. Easier for the state to pick up the tab with a run-away spouse. Society would be better off if he did remove himself from the gene pool.

But, he still has his computer and printer! (note the text and format of the letter.) And such a nicely manicured finger, still can afford that.

[GOBUCKS]

I've never heard of a life insurance policy that didn't pay in cases of suicide,
if the policy had been in force for at least two years at the time of suicide.

Maybe that's a regulation that differs from state to state.

Someone got trolled.

I guess this is the DUmmy version of the Wall Street letter.

[DumbAss Tanker]

life insurance policies are usually voided in the case of suicide.

Depends on the state insurance regs, most I've ever seen do pay, but only if the decedent had the policy at least two full years before the suicide.

ETA - Oh yeah, forgot to add:  I don't believe for a minute he offed himself, or that the family really exists.

That's what it sounds like to me.

[USA4ME]

Whatever the real story is, it's an emotional appeal, there's no logic involved at all.  Plays right into the hands of libs since their whole ideological approach to life is based upon emotions and not analysis and logic.

Not only a flag on the bouncy, but an all out whistle blow to go with it.

This DUmmy is "gone", just like TwixVoy has emigrated to Portugal, and nutcase nadin has moved her wisdom to Crazy Andrea's place.

New twist on the "Good Bye Cruel World" meme?

Originator sitting back, munching Cheetos, counting up all the DUmmie pleas to not off himself? With no remorse toward the few coherent DUmmies worried about the non-existent family?

By the time you read this, I too will be gone, hopefully my wife will be home and we will be eating supper by then.

Of course. The same thing happened with the whole "Trig Palin = Bristol's son" rumor, with some DUmmies back then actually encouraging each other to keep spreading that rumor even if it turns out to be a lie, because they felt that the end (Stopping Sarah Palin's political ambitions and getting Obama elected) justified the means (Destroying a good family's reputation by deliberately spreading a vicious rumor that they know is untrue).
It also is the case every time some nutjob kills a bunch of people and they think they can blame it on conservatives even if it turns out the nutjob in question was liberal (i.e. Joseph Stack, and especially Jared Loughner).
