"Doctors in Oregon are not allowed to "kill their patients". Its assisted suicide, not murder."

And I suppose you think abortion is merely "assisted termination of a fetus".

Whatever. This is Oregon's issue. If the citizens of Oregon wish to allow suicide in their state, that's their decision. Just don't use federally controlled substances, that's all.

I'm sure these "doctors" can find another way to kill their patients. They're smart.

Get a grip paulsen. -- Doctors in Oregon are not allowed to "kill their patients".
They are allowed to assist in suicide, not murder.

Whatever. This is Oregon's issue. If the citizens of Oregon wish to allow suicide in their state, that's their decision.

Thanks for conceding the main point.

Just don't use federally controlled substances, that's all.

Back you go, - in circles. The narcotics used are the best substances available.

In this issue, feds are trying to control suicide, not 'substances'. -- And they are not empowered to control either one..

That sounds like you wish to wield federal power merely to be an annoyance, and to achieve no meaningful end.
