All Americans should have access to assisted suicide

[Markle]

Like many, I have mixed feelings. Okay for me, but I'm afraid you will find a way to take advantage.

My issue is the focus of ending lives.

Democrats love this kind of talk, since they are all about policies that promote depopulation.

Why on earth do you have to declare taking your life a human right when no one can stop you in the first place? Just walk down to any street corner and buy the only affordable thing you can thanks to Joe Biden inflation, which is deadly fentanyl that just came across the border and overdose. Easy Peasy.

Idiocy.

What will happen, is that democrats will promote people to kill themselves off like they are doing with blacks in inner cities as they shoot each other to death, or in New York where there are have been more black abortions than births. They are embracing self genocide.

Imagine if Hitler had convinced the Jews to do this for whatever reason.

I am making no judgements here other than the unhealthy and ghoulish preoccupation with euthanasia, much like Hitler sending the medically unfit to the basements of hospitals to die because they are not productive for the state. But to fail to take into consideration the altered mental status of people to make such momentous decisions, alongside the manipulation by others for them to off themselves from the state because they don't want them around any longer, is beyond mystifying to me.

As a society, should we not instead be focused on the right to life? Again, if people want to off themselves when they get to be an adult, who can stop them? No one can. Or if they want to cut off their genitals and pretend they are another sex when they get older, who can stop them? No one can. But are these healthy things for a society to focus upon and should any of this be offered to children? Hell no!!

They have a right to fight for alternatives.

So you're saying a person with dementia suffering for years is going to add to the population?

The "preoccupation" is yours.

These people just want to be left alone to make their end of life decision on their own. That you want to use the government to intervene on YOUR behalf because YOU think they should make that decision truly shows your love and addiction to the power of government.

No one mentioned children. But, since you seemed focused on children...

there's a child with severe birth defects that will result in death sooner rather than later, perhaps a few months at most. But, till then, the child would suffer in terrible pain, unable to eat or digest food they must be fed through a tube. The child is blind and deaf.
The parents, knowing their child will die soon don't want the child to suffer and want euthanasia.

But you'd rather use the government to force this child to suffer till the end?

We don't even treat animals this cruelly.

Why do laws need to be changed, if someone wants to kill themselves, then they just do it, the police arent going to come up to you after you expire and write you a 100 dollar ticket for loitering. Or arrest you and give you a life sentence in jail, for first degree murder. But, it is always those left behind that have to deal with the tragedy. My aunt lost her son (my cousin) because he had a terrible life, first when he got out of high school, did drugs and went to jail for 5 years. Then when he came out, he tried to straighten up his life, got a girl pregnant had to work some really shitty jobs(because it is hard to trust a felon from jail) was supporting the girl and his daughter, then the girl started playing mind games with my cousin. After a couple of years, he, my cousin found my aunt's 38 and blew his brains out, and my aunt had to do clean up the mess, and think what she did wrong in bringing up her son. Now there is a young girl out there without a father who was there for her all the time, until her mom chased him away, forever. Do you think the daughter will wonder why daddy never comes to see her?

I dont have the courage

 

[JOSweetHeart]

Why do you people advocate for making someone else a murderer when the suicidal person can just take care care of it themselves? Put it back on them.

I second this, but that right there is just it. If a person is suicidal enough, they are not going to care who is impacted by their passing and in whatever way it does happen to take place. One way or another, anyone who cares about the person will be those who only end up with a lot of grief on their plate.

God bless you always!!!

P.S. One of my most favorite singers shot himself, Steve Sanders of the Oak Ridge Boys that is. My only question is what or who drove him into thinking that a gun was worth turning into a final meal for himself?

No wonder you want to off yourself.

To die when you feel it’s the correct time
A human right

I know exactly what you mean.

But may be when we think is the correct time, it's not.

And the when the deed is done we can not go back

 

[Man of Ethics]

Many of us want to die with honor and dignity

Maybe you suffer from a severe anxiety disorder or chronic back pain or just want to “ wrap this S up “

NO!

Suicide is a sin as great as murder.

 

[Man of Ethics]

Meh, a length of rope is pretty cheap.

NO!

Suicide is a sin generally carrying a more severe penalty then murder.

 

[1srelluc]

Dementia patients should be given a suicide pill in a box that says take this pill if you can't remember what it's for.

Then we would have Cumswalla Harris as POTUS.

 

[1srelluc]

NO!

Suicide is a sin generally carrying a more severe penalty then murder.

Not for the unaffiliated.

 

[Man of Ethics]

How cruel !!

Why let a man suffer

According to The Tanya by Alter Rebe, a little suffering in this World counts as much as a lot of suffering in the next World. The ratio is the same as the ratio of the movement of the shadow to the movement of Earth which produces the movement of the shadow. About 1:3,000,000.

Human Life is G-d's Creation. Life is precious.

 

[Man of Ethics]

I've got the same cancer that killed my mom. They tell me I'm doing well but just in case I have a few exit strategies in mind. Not going out in terrible pain, despair, and doped up insensibility like she did.

May G-d help you!

 

[Mr Natural]

Human Life is G-d's Creation. Life is precious.

There’s a big difference between living and being alive.

Not sure your meaning but
If I wanted to "off myself" I wouldn't want the government forcing me to do otherwise.
But there are people who want to use the government to force their beliefs on people.
They're called "conservatives"
Actual Conservative find using the government this way abhorrent.

My reply was meant for our friend Quasar.

Not sure how your name got in there.
