I had to edit the headline as it was too long.
Imagine the doctor ending the life of your loved one because the bureaucratic system is short of money.

Once they figure out how much these lethal injections are costing the government, they are going to look for a more efficient method - like gas chambers.

This isn’t “killing”; it is murder in the first degree. Evidently the Dutch have become Nazi’s.

"

They do understand it. They just want us to be at the bottom of the slope.

How many of these killed people were muslims? Do the Dutch have the balls to
“euthanize” muslims?
