I'm glad to hear you say that and I agree with you that it should be a personal decision. I hope everyone is considering a living will.

Here is the logic that you Brainiacs fail to grasp:

Sometimes killing somebody a little sooner IS a personal decision. BUT... The decision of when killing someone BECOMES a personal decision rather than murder is a GOVERNMENT decision and that is what is at issue. Government decides when it is appropriate, the standard of proof and conduct and by whom. If killing someone were always a personal decision then anyone could kill you right now. So the mantras about "personal decisions" and "less government" are misleading slogans and simple-minded inanities.
