I really don't feel comfortable ever saying that someone died out of their own stupidity. Things happen, and sometimes when you least expect it. We all do stupid thing without thinking sometimes, and some people die because of those exact same things, yet we did not. I think it's always tragic when a person dies, even in a way that could have been avoided. I didn't know the girl and don't know what the actual circumstances were, so I don't feel it's fair to judge the situation in such a crude way. So I voted #2.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
