So I ask you the same question. Do you hold racist bigots in the same regard?

As suicide? No.

Racism is an action against a fellow human being, or a belief held about a particular group of people, based solely on their ethnicity.

Racism is more akin to murder: It's an act which violates the sanctity of another human being, with the intent of violating the individual rights of that other human being. Suicide is an act with the motive to end one's own life, not the life of another.

Still. Racism is an entirely different topic with layers of complexity involved. For instance, holding a racist belief, while perhaps immoral, isn't necessarily worthy of being called an illegality because it's a belief, not an act. Racially-motivated crimes or discrimination, on the other hand, is an act, and should be dealt with accordingly based on the situation at hand.

...Versus suicide, where barring mental instability, if a perfectly sane person wishes to end their own life, the only person they act upon directly is themselves, right in the same vein as choosing to drink alcohol, do drugs, smoke cigarettes, drive a motor vehicle at highway speeds, jump out of a plane, or owning a pet that could kill you in seconds if it went berserk.
