The difference with Keith is that he chose to get involved with the 
Scientologists. How many cryonics patients commit suicide, and out of the 
ones that do how many do so in a rational state of mind and choose to die?

I am not saying that people should never be helped who cause their own 
problems (we're all human and make mistakes after all), but it does not 
reflect badly on one to not help someone who brought on their own problems. 
Friends of Keith I would imagine have good cause to help him, but to make 
this into some kind of moral duty for others is misguided in my opinion.

People considering cryonics normally judge it based on technical merits or the 
standard criticisms/questions such as "what if the organisation storing me 
fails? etc.
