    That would depend upon one's perspective, I believe.  If someone with MPD threatened suicide, their family, psychiatrist, and the police would be unlikely to consider it a hostage situation.  I am reasonably certain their alter egos would disagree, however.

  • If they blow their brains out is it a mass shooting?
