Like, hypothetically, if you were to approach a mob guy and be like "whack me", would that be illegal?

Obviously not serious, but it's a funny thought.

You can do it for free with the police, depending on where you live.

Also obviously not serious.

Suicide is illegal? What are they gonna do, hold my funeral in jail? Is attempting suicide cause for arrest?

There's a reason when you attempt suicide they hold you in a hospital against your will for a few days.

Pretty sure vice police try to stop that.

Toke jopic, just stressed as fuck and not happy with where my life is going. Thought the concept of hiring your own hitman sounded hilarious.

It's mostly used to give police the leeway they need to intervene. If they have reasonable belief a violent crime is in progress, they can enter premises without a warrant. Useful if they need to, say, talk someone down from a ledge.

Not to say it hasnt led to absolutely awful consequences, too. Shooting people for not putting down the gun they have to their own head, for example.

Ah yeah thats right. I remember learning that years ago but I must have not cared about it enough and forgot. Makes perfect sense.

Suicide is illegal in the same way playing cards on Sunday is illegal. Eg. It's not actually illegal.

If you get caught succeeding at it, they have you put on trial, but it's usually pretty fast, mostly because if they took too long, your decomposing body would start smelling and the court room would stink for a while afterwards. So that's why we don't really hear about those trials, they don't last long enough to attract any press attention.
