Kevorkian would have it where those who do not really want to die (as in those sad cases in the Netherlands) are pressured into bumping themselves off anyway.

Pain can get out of control but it can still be fought. An intentional fatal dose of morphine is never the solution.

Not your decision. It's mine to make. The issues isn't temporary pain for me. It's amount of pain, severity, persistence, and prognosis.

The larger issue, is do you believe a person has a right to commit suicide? If not, what punishment should the government enact for your decision?
