Why is that my responsibility?
Push someone over the edge, however, when they do display a clear and present danger to themselves and I'll come down holy hell on your ass. It's not your responsibility to save them, but it certainly is your responsibility to not get us named in a Wrongful Death suit because you had to be an ass and yell "Jump!".
This thread is allowed to exist because it has been determined there is not clear and present warning signs from anyone. Nor is there anyone encouraging an existent person to do so.
However, I must post this, because you are straying into territory where you may feel it's your right to incite or amplify existing issues because it is "not your responsibility". That line of thought can invite really shitty things.
