I agree with free-speech.. fine. But not in certain instances where its inciting people to do 'bad' things they might not do otherwise.

Perhaps you scanned through my post. Here's what I said:

...I would suggest otherwise but would provide information on how to do those things if their decision was already made.

This means that I would tell them that it's not the answer, but if what I say or do still doesn't convince you otherwise, here's how you do it. I'm not going to deny someone support and advice just because they do something that I disagree with. Anorexia isn't against the law, it's a moral issue, and what they do is beyond my control. People make their own decisions, regardless of what you tell them. Just because someone told me to "go kill myself" doesn't mean I'm obligated to do it, and just because I provide information on how to become anorexic doesn't mean that I'm promoting bad decisions. No, I'm supporting decisions in general that are not illegal.
