:o) OK . . . I'm sayin' NO to nerds.
Headline: 40,000 suicides annually, yet America simply shrugs
Nobody's going to stop you from committing suicide on your own, because nobody can stop you. There's a suicide in the USA every 13 minutes. There's autonomy for you.
This business of getting your friends involved seems to show a real lack of consideration. You'd be opening them up for homicide investigation ---- because if the authorities don't investigate freelance "assisted suicides" as homicides, they're opening up bogus set-up "suicides" as a foolproof way to murder people. No socially responsible, liberty-loving person wants that.
To spell it out, getting your BFF's and kin involved imposes sticky complication for them and the rest of society. Even if you wanted to make a video of your full consent and the doing of the deed, there would still have to be an investigation to see if force, fear, coercion or drugging --- including the use of hypnotics, barbiturates and sedatives, or even alcohol --- were used to manipulate your consent through heightening suggestibility.
If they do such inquiry in the context of a criminal investigation, it's a hassle for your dearly beloved accomplices. If they don't do serious investigation, you've just made it a whole hell of a lot easier for "family and friends" to commit murder.
Again, logi, you already have the effective individual liberty to commit suicide. Nobody will stop you, because nobody can. You can make the annual count 40,000 + 1.
I am not recommending this. I am just telling you how it is.
I never wrote about that.
You play the straw man argument as well as a progressive. Look it up.
I gave you an excuse for what you wrote prior; you blew it.
YOU are the one engaging in personal attacks via straw man arguments. The 'wine' comment was a figure of speech; there is no apology for 'the way it is'.
