So, the higher courts have apparently upheld Oregon's assisted suicide law. Now, terminally ill patients can opt to have their doctors give them a lethal dose of medications, in effect killing them to ease their pain and suffering.

Supreme Court Rules on Assisted Suicide

Humane treatment of the terminally ill, or playing God with life?

Keep the discussion level-headed, or I'll get Mingez to break out the Hulk Hands!!:lol:
 

Ok I'll take the first swing. I don't really care. No one in my family, myself included, would ever rather die no matter how bad their circumstances were. If some people out there choose to end their lives then go through whatever they're going through then that's their decision. Whatever one other person believes is morally wrong doesn't matter because they're not the judge. And if they believe themselves to be the judge then they need to reevaluate their decision making process. That's just my opinion.

Let the games begin!
 

It would have to be a deep personal decision to make.

My Mother died of several cancerous complications. The end was not pleasant but she fought it as long as she could.

She told us the day of her death that the end was near. It was a sad thing to witness.

She looked very at peace when the end came, but suicide was never in her complications.
 
The Supreme two-faced court.:evil: :evil: :evil:

Ruled in this and called it "states rights".
Where are the so-called states rights when it comes to teaching intellegent design along with evolution?? or over-riding Texas' anti-sodomy laws..

When they want to over-rule an existing state law, they just come in where they are not welcome and take over the soverign state.
Then they pull this crap and say its states rights... Two Faced Tyrants!


There has been no states rights since the War of Northern Aggression.

I know that somebody needs to get Kevorkian out of jail now and appoligize to him big time!!

A little late for that, wasn't he murdered in prison??? Possibly he mentioned to someone in passing that he'd rather die than live in prison so some kind soul decided to perform his own justice on him ;)

(staying out of discussion, but wanted to point that out)
 

Seems to me that it should be the right of the individual to decide such things instead of the state.

Though I'll most likely go from a massive coronary, so luckily (unluckily?) I'll never have to face such a decision.

Though I've told the wife that if I make it to 80 I'm picking up smoking and plan on drinking burbon by the barrel. Thats assuming that the NWO hasn't made tobacco and alcohol illegal by 2057. Though as long as I am able body enough to make apple wine and corn squeezins....

Nope. You must be thinking of Jeffrey Dahmer. Dr. Jack is still alive in Thumb Correctional Facility, although is dying of liver failure from contracting Hepatitis C while testing blood transfusions during the Viet Nam War.

I was.

Here's some food for thought for ya before you get all giddy inside and dislocate your elbow from patting yourself on the back...

Note the asking of a question, as I was unsure. Some of us do that instead of misrepresenting thoughts as fact. :idea:

:rolleyes:
