Hey, it's just a fad... ignore it. 😉

It's kinda hard to ignore when some idiot lands on your car and offs your whole bloodline. 😛

These people don't want to die.....if they wanted to die
they would jump and not stand there and cry for attention.

They had to put these up all over the LA area years ago because of these idiots.

If you want to off yourself, more power to ya... but why be such an asshole as to do it in a way the endangers other people???

because it doesn't matter to you anyway 😉
 
that's lame.
i remember we were in a traffic jam a few years ago in Toronto and some truck driver yells down to us "did you hear what happened?"
and we're like "Noooo.." ... he goes..... "some guy jumped off the overpass.... rotten bastard should burn in hell for what he's done to us..." me and my friends were LOL over that statement. i mean, sure someone has died, but still, that's funny coming from this truckdriver stopped beside us.

This sh*t has got to stop.

Some loser pulled this on the downtown connector (I-85/75) during rush hour not too long ago and the massive amount of TV coverage has spawned a bunch of copycats. Now the already cash-strapped city is going to spend millions to put Anti-Nutcase Fences on the overpasses. I say fine these fsckers for everything they've got to help fund the fencing. :|

/rant

Why cant you just let police snipers shoot them? Either it is what they want anyway, OR it is a just punishment for attention whores.

Can't the cops just shoot them?
Nope. Amusingly, the first asshole who started this whole thing ended up falling after the cops tried to grab him and pull him back over the rail. Fortunately, he lived (with lots of broken bones) to stand trial for Felony Dumbassedness. 😀

Still think it's a better idea to shoot them

Nah...potential for lawsuits. Hitting them with one of those big sticky-nets and then leaving them on the bridge for a few days to ponder the error of their ways is perhaps a better option. :evil:
