"Yes, I think Dr. Bob should be totally without feeling and be ready to witness suicide. He shouldn't get involved because we are not his patients."
My personal opinion is if there is someone about to do harm to himself it and if I could do something to stop it then it would be completely imoral on my part to not interfere.
There may also be some legal issues, as in by not helping are you assisting? And it could result in lawsuits from surviving family members.
As far as I know it has only happened with one poster - and she later thanked him for it.
