This is some sick stuff, folks. But the culture of death is coming down to that. When you start putting conditions on the absolute value of human life, there's no stopping which conditions will be applied.

If anybody's interested, the authors advanced the following idea a couple of years ago:
Death Fiction and Taking Organs from the Living:
But there is another more radical way to increase the supply of organs. We could abandon the dead donor rule. We could for example, allow organs to be taken from people who are not brain dead, but who have suffered such severe injury that they would be permanently unconscious, like Terry Schiavo, who would be allowed to die anyway by removal of their medical treatment.

The only ones needing to be put down are the sick Romanian bastards who posit this dung.

For Democrat politicians, DEFINITELY! Would you want to know that you received a vital organ that was from a Democrat? ;-D

So liberal logic is that organs that die with their owners go to “waste”, but fetal lives that are snuffed by chioce are discarded tissue
Seems to me “choice” is “choice” when it comes to who does what with an individual’s body

Why don’t we just outsource organs to communist China?
They’ll just shoot a political prisoner in the head on demand.

I hate when something as generous as organ donation is taken too far. If you want to donate an organ, have at it—but please do not speed up my delivery.
I would rather be the “cable company” of organ donation: I will deliver it sometime between 50 and 100 years....”

There has got to be a young entrepreneur out there who could come up with an idea that would allow us to render our organs unusable after death. Something that can be taken by a person who knows they're going to be leaving this world no matter what within months.
That inventive person would become a millionaire overnight. (I'll have to check my really old herbal books to see what I can find.)

The justification for this point of view is nothing new. It surfaced on a grand scale at certain “Medical Labs” in Europe. They were located at places like Ravensbruk, Treblinka, Sobibor, Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Terezan, and many, many others. Personally I’d believed that those people had (happily) left this earth. Guess not.

maybe we should start thinking of patients as patients rather than potential orgen sources?
that said, I have no objections to decisions best left between families and physicians.
