Is suicide a crime wherever you are?
No blast, no explosives, just plain old self termination.

Yes, that way they can commit a person to mental health care even if they don’t want it.
The police in America have a phrase “Death by Suicide”. When they get called out by a family member, roommate etc that a person is suicidal and see the person showing a weapon and gesturing like they are going to shoot the police the police will likely shoot them if it’s a gun they are showing. . Sometimes they will try other tactics if it’s a knife or they are threatening to jump from a high place. They’ll try to talk them down or talk to them for a long time to get them to drop the weapon or get help. I knew someone at work who was a painter at the university. He liked to go home and drink. His relative called one evening and said he was drinking & getting crazy and had a knife. The police tried to get him to drop the knife but he ran towards them and they shot him & he died. Likely his liver had a hard time filtering the paint chemicals and the alcohol both out of his system and the toxins messed with his mental state.
