"You know that infamous Vietnam War-era comment to the effect that 'it became necessary to destroy the village in order to save it.' Well, one thing I don't get ... Oh, OK, one of many things I don't get, is the tendency in recent years for law enforcement agencies to respond to reports of despondent individuals on the brink of self-destruction by dispatching teams of armed, aggressive police officers. So, you've got a guy actively contemplating the dark attractions of the eternal sleep; do you really think you're going to make things better by creating a situation in which the fellow gets his wish merely by making a sudden move for his cell phone?" -- J.D.
