I dont think there is a magic number, I think the hope behind these actions are to inspire to enact more change and to show all human life has value, I think disregarding this as nothing demonstrates a lack of empathy or working class spirit.

No one is regarding it as nothing. We're regarding it as a very high cost form of protest which doesn't seem to be more effective than non-suicidal methods.

That was the vibe I got from other commenters that havent replied to me. I appreciate you and others have less deranged views on this.

Fair! :) Maybe some ARE regarding it as nothing, in which case I agree with your view.
