I mean he's right about the suicide thing. Its the difference between traumatizing someone and taking them with you. Both are terrible, sure, no one is denying that. But one of these involves killing (or at least attempting to) somebody. So yes, murder is worse than giving someone PTSD.

    People in the cars in car accidents can die too y'know. Plus the driver doesn't necessarily know the person is committing suicide, making them think they're a murderer. The word that was used to compare the two was "similar", I truly don't see how anyone could argue they're dissimilar. No one said they were exactly equal.
