LANSING, Mich. (AP) Michigan officials say assisted suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian will be paroled in June.
If a person wants to off himself, what are they going to do, put the body in jail?
This is about having others assist persons in suicide.
"If a person wants to off himself, what are they going to do, put the body in jail?..."
A character in Dostoyevsky's THE POSSESSED explained that suicide was the only way that one could become God. But that was a well-named novel.
Apologies. This site is running too slow today to respond to each person individually.
I meant to include that part of my response to Scarpetta and Canticle_of_Deborah, but left their names off the To section.
probably the cops, the DA, witnesses, etc.
What a dumb statement.
Do you have a list?
Last time I checked it was not in my job description to decide who is going to hell. It's not in yours either.
You brought up your belief in an afterlife.
The fact that you can not follow a logical extension of your own argument tells me it is time to stop posting to you.
So sorry to have offended you. But I don't think for a second my "tone" was hectoring. And for the record, I had to make my post to someone but it was not specifically directed at you.
You know what I think? I think you are acting like anyone who suddenly discovers their hero is really a bad guy and attacks, well...attacks the messenger is the phrase that comes to mind.
Hey, I didn't make Kevorkian a creep. He did that himself.
Oh...and NOW the conversation is over.
No witnesses. And besides, it was a private conversation before the murder and the "victim" didn't have any last minute regrets.
Trust me.
Thank you. No, my father was in the VA hospital in Tampa.
VA medicine isnt the best medicine.
Normally, outside the medical education circles such as the VA or other teaching hospitals, people are well medicated for pain, and no one cares about life shortening effects.
When one is in the VA hospitals or in teaching hospitals, one is often assigned to be some med student, intern or firt year resident's lab rat. It is a good experience for the student and it is awful for the patient and family.
Never go to die in a teaching hospital, get transfered immediatiely. Always know who is working on your loved one.
LOL, logical for whom?
Have a nice day.
Is Judge Greer presiding over the parole board?
Thanks for saying what I was thinking.
but the evidence shows a struggle
I'm against posing nude & getting tattoos, and radical Muslims and atheists, so is my stand on one of those the reason that I find no favor with you?
Nope. No struggle. Just a little Polonium. She wanted to go that way.
Trust me.
Thank you for your answul.....it was beauti
Thank you for your answer...it was beautiful.
I don't like you because your opinions are severe, overly broad, ill informed and poorly substantiated.
Oh, and you are humorless as well.
Good day.
