Mike...

Well, we will never know her motives and if they are ever found out I doubt the news will print it as it will be old news.
However, her method of public suicide and the involvment of innocent parties who will surely be traumatized for a long long time is suspect and not indicative of a rationale mind.
Further, and from the perspective of a mother, to leave your disabled, recently injured and needy child is beyond comprehension and absolutely unnacceptable.

This woman may have been a nice and good person, but clearly her action was irrational and not indicative of strength. George did not pass judgement on her life, he commented on the action.

I understand your concern, however, there are many more topics routinely discussed on TFL that would "turn off" a fence-sitter.
