assisted suicide

[saddlebum]

edit. I should have clarified medically assisted.
what are your thoughts on assisted suicide?
right now I believe Oregon and Vermont are the only 2 states that allow nonresidents to use the system

That is one way to get rid of Biden.


Seriously for really bad, painful, incurable health issues, I can see it. Not a fan of the idea but sometimes the pain is more than they can stand and I am sure God would forgive them.

If you’re not competent enough to do it yourself it probably shouldn’t be done. Back in my day people killed themselves without any help.

 

[MilitantBEEMER]

Not a fan. The closest to it that I can stomach is hospice.
If you needed to talk or someone to listen, let me know.

I hope I never have to complaint that. I’d have to be in an awful lot of pain, as doing that would be hard on family and friends.

i'm in favour. Your life, your choice.

if you're gonna die anyway, why force someone to go through a long, painful decline?

 

[Mr.Glock]

Helium would/will be my choice if/when needed.

Hell the government is doing it for us. Look what more them half the US is eating. If we could get rid of welfare we would drop a lot of dead weight pun intended. Just remember you only live once. Your life your choice

I'm in favor of it. I know; the slippery slope, but I'm still in favor of it.
My previous wife died from cancer and at one point she asked me with all sincerity: would it better to shoot under the chin or thru the temple from the side, to be sure the job gets done.
Her plan was to drive into the country, walk out into a field and do the deed, to be sure she passed before being found.

She ended up in hospice, which was a godsend. Still not an easy road.

Legal in several states, OK isn't one of them. Personally imo it's not the answer in any situation. I'd be interested to see commentary from family of those who's loved ones went through with it in one of those states where legal.
