Re: euthanasia?

I believe in euthanasia for people who have a terminal illness and want to die with dignity, but I don't believe that it should be available to anyone who wants to die like it is in the Netherlands.

Re: euthanasia?

What's wrong with all the youths in asia? When they are doing what they are supposed to be doing, relatively speaking, suiciding hopeless people painlessly, I would say that it is fine, as long as it is consented. But there should be major counseling first, as well as a major effort to get their life goals done before those youths in asia do them in.
