The right to control one's OWN life, including deciding when to end it, is alive and well in America. The government doesn't own individual citizens' lives, and Hillary's "village" doesn't own individual citizens' lives. Individual citizens own their own lives, and can dispose of those lives as they please.

The problem comes when that next step is taken and others will be permitted to decide when you die.

Correct. The government doesn't own us.

It always gets me when I see Freeper thread like "THERE IS NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO PRIVACY"

Well, it may not be specifically enumerated, but just because it isn't, that doesn't mean if I'm walking down the street, a federal marshall is allowed to grab me, pull my pants down, and laugh if he wants to.

Of course there is a right to privacy, there has been a right to privacy in every society that ever existed.

The same people who don't want a right to privacy because of the abortion ruling will scream bloody murder if they try to get on a plane and they get patted down...

So it's gotta be one way or the other.

Bravo!

The opinions of both Hillary's 'village' and certain wackaloons on this site are completely irrelevant.
