Doctor loses license for assisted suicide

They aren't deciding.

Sure they aren't. Just like the Government won't decide when it becomes normal for assisted suicide.

Assisted dying is legal in Oregon, Washington, Vermont, Montana, and now New Mexico, although that one is being challenged in the courts. The law has worked out just fine for those few who truly want to end their lives due to a terminal illness. Keep in mind, their illness must be terminal and ruled so by two separate doctors. Also, the patient must have less than six months to live. Also, the doctor can only prescribe the lethal combination of drugs; the doctor cannot administer the drugs. The patient must be able to take the drugs on their own. This way if the patient changes his/her mind at the last second, nobody can force them to got through with it. Lastly, in the two states where there are a high number of assisted deaths/suicides, Washington and Oregon, the average number per year is only around 100 per state. Washington has a little over 100 per year, and Oregon has a little under 100 per year. The state is not killing thousands of people off because assisted suicide is legal. In truth, only a very small number of people choose to die this way, but at least they have the right to do so.

You own your own body. No one has the right to take that fact away from you.

An unborn human being inside of a woman's body is not her body. Fact.

The fertilized embryo attaches to the uterus in order to become a fetus. Without that attachment it will never develop into a human being. The placenta provides oxygen and nutrients enabling the fetus to grow. Without the placenta the fetus won't survive.

The fetus is part of the woman's body up to the moment of giving birth. It is entirely dependent upon her to survive. The fetus could not survive on it's own in the first 2 semesters any more than your kidney could survive if it was removed from your body.

Wrong a baby can survive at 16 weeks.

Prove it!

Proven in hospitals all the time.

Wrong, wrong, and wrong again. Ten years ago, 24 weeks was the cutoff. Today, some babies born at 22 weeks will survive, but it is still rare. Most born at 22 weeks will die despite the best care possible. Anything before that and they won't even try to save the baby, because they can't. Not sure where you are getting your info, but you are wrong. My youngest son was born at 30 weeks, and my girlfriend works in NICU.
