ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Chelsea Manning was recovering Wednesday after attempting suicide while jailed here for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury investigation into WikiLeaks, according to attorneys for the former Army intelligence analyst.

What is up with these mentally ill trans people and suicide? Deep down, do they hate themselves for what they've become?

rburgOK, I was going to ask why I should care. I do hope the attempt was painful. If he manages to croak, its OK with me. If he suffers greatly, that's OK with me, too.

You said it - they are ill. They need help, not a pretend disease that can be fixed by dressing differently and made up pronouns.

95flhrFailed attempt at suicide in my book generally means the person wants more attention than they are getting.
If serious, the deed would be done.
