It’s Enough To Make You Want To Kill Yourself

Boston is hurting the self-esteem of people who are thinking of killing themselves by jumping off the Tobin Bridge:

Just a week after the Herald revealed that anti-suicide signs on the Tobin Bridge had been removed by a state road crew, the signs are back – but with a wrong number.



Massport spokeswoman Danny Levy said yesterday the agency received six new signs from The Samaritans of Greater Boston and put them up on the bridge Tuesday.



But the phone number on the new signs – aimed at offering a potential lifeline to troubled souls considering suicide – is disconnected.

Just remember: suicide is against the law. The penalty is death.
