There are more private ways to commit suicide, but not more polite. Someone is going to have to find the body, be it a shocked stranger or family member, etc. I don't think someone jumping out of a hotel window at Disneyland is all that more shocking than doing the same someplace else, despite the irony. People can feel miserable anywhere, even (or maybe more so) at the "happiest place on earth."
I don't know. Yes, it's a selfish act. Yes, it's sad the person saw no other option, and in some cases medication would have helped. Family and friends of suicides are dealt a terrible blow. And it's awful that some people commit suicide publicly. But, I also believe a person has a right to stay in this life or exit it at their leisure. Living isn't for everyone.
