It depends on the situation if they are just sitting there and say about suicide no but if they have a gun in their hand on on the side of a bridge call 911 ASAP.

What should a police officer do when confronting a suicidal person that has a gun that is not posing a threat to the police officer?

Any person with a gun has the potential to be a threat to a police officer. A suicidal person with a gun in their hand is a significant threat. If the gun is pointed at the officer, he would be justified in trying to stop the imminent threat. If the gun is not pointed at the officer, the officer should have his weapon at the ready, and take cover.

Taking action about suicidal tendency?

Feeling suicidal? Do three things: Get help, Get help, Get help. Know someone who's feeling suicidal? See "Feeling sucidal?", above. Let's tighten up the question some - what kind of action, coercive or cooperative? Voluntary or involuntary? Should police be able to determine who is suicidal and needs to be locked up for 72 hours to 14 days? Would you be comfortable sending police to deal with a relative you thought might be in trouble? This is current standard practice. Police departments do not require college degrees for entrance into their training programs. Do you think police should be involved in suicide prevention?

Suicide is the act of ending your own life. If you are constantly having thoughts of ending your own life, or killing yourself speak to some one about it. Even me, a stranger.

If people are teased about what they wear are the more likely to commit suicide?

The acting out by a person of a suicidal impulse, thought or plan that results in their death by suicide may be triggered by one or a series of "triggers". Each death by suicide is a uniqueevent unlike any other although perhaps appearingsimilar on the surface. This means that what appears to be 'teasing' about what they are wearing, may be perceived by a person on the receiving end as 'bullying abuse'. If this is highly vulnerable person who is harbouring suicidal thoughts then teasing may be 'the last straw' that triggers a suicidal act.The lesson here is that we should be gentle and compassionate with everyone because vulnerability in human beings is not always visible to observers.
