Hmm. I respect the dedication. But if your that dedicated to a movement, wouldnt you be able to accomplish more alive then dead?
Again, respect but i dont see the point.

Quang Duc's self-immolation was a rallying point for political protest in South Vietnam. Directly following the self-immolation:
the political climate in Saigon changed as if hit by the drop in pressure preceding a hurricane. Vast demonstrations broke out. The city people, who had for years remained passive, terrified before the Diemist police, crowded into the pagodas to kneel and weep, then, following the bonzes [Buddhist monks], burst forth into the streets calling for the downfall of the Ngos [the ruling family in South Vietnam] (Fitzgerald, 74).
