essay will be discussing two specific methods: jumping from the Golden Gate Bridge and physician-assisted suicide. The Golden Gate Bridge is 1.7 miles long, connecting San Francisco to the Marin Country, as a symbol of hope after World War I. Moreover the same bridge is also the cause of 46 deaths in 2016.
