The trouble is that you do this every year, whine about the TT. And yes, it is whining, sanctimonius hypocrisy at it worst because you raise absurd arguments and then complain that no-one has answered your stupidity in terms you want to hear.

Firstly, why should you stop the TT just because someone dies? Why should we care if many people die there, it doesn't affect us, it doesn't kill uninvolved people and the medical costs are borne by the race organisers and insurances.

So just what is your beef with it? You don't like teh idea of someone dying, presumably because you have an issue with that. Do you also parade round military bases suggesting that people don't join the military because they might get injured or killed?

Now, you would be much better off demanding to have football stopped. So far 8 people have died in Brazil and 400 in Quatar, and that's just in the construction. On average there will be 5 deaths at every key match, people who die of medical complications exacerbated by the emotions raised. There will be a much greater number who get serious and life changing injuries such as hearing damage, getting trodden on and so forth.

And the jingoistic nationalism at such events means that rampant racism is encouraged by every news outlet across the world.

And you are worried that someone might kill themselves unless you stop them doing an activity.

I take it that you also opposed hunting, not because of any issues with animal welfare but simply because the number of deaths while hunting has statistical relevance. (Let alone the fact that riding horses is at least twice as dangerous as riding a motorcycle.)

Until you can provide a compelling argument as to why people should not kill themselves if they want to, why everyone should be forced to conform to your standards, then your annual rant is seen as simply dictatorial authoritarianism.
