I'm not sure. I know that if he does go through with it, the hostage negotiation team considers it murder.
I do not see how it would become a hostage situation. I would take it as this person crying out for help. If this person is already on medication maybe the meds needs to be altered somewhat.
I feel really sorry for someone that has to live their life like that. I hope you care enough for this person to help him/her out. Good Luck!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
