Here's something that might rile up quite a few of u.
Why is it that only indians commit suicide. I dont see black people or any other race attempting this. Of course I could be wrong, and I would stand corrected if so.

Indians in Guyana, T&T and Suriname have far higher rates of suicide than do other groups. It gets deeper than this as it turns out that it is a rural Hindu phenomenon.

And we are looking at Indians being potentially 6x as likely to commit suicide as non Indians.
