The poison it uses, potassium chloride, is the same as that used in executions in the United States.
"The machine is on offer to terminally ill people," says Kusch. "No one has to use it, but I think this is a topic that moves people greatly."
I guess that Zyklon B was unavailable.

A one push button solution to permanently solve very temporary problems.

I assume it’s rented on a strict payment-in-advance system.

Good question and do they lose their deposit if they don’t return in on time?

Uh - can you really collect a refund after you've made the Final Exit? I don't think so.

It is absolutely Orwellian to call this infernal device an “act of Christian love.” It is satanic.

Okey dokey, I don't get the button part. If the renter still has to put the needle in, then why not just push the injector thingie on the syringe and save the button fee?

Yep. When Terri Schiavo was being murdered, they explained that she was experiencing “euphoria” from being started and dehydrated. Why don’t they try that on convicted murderers.

Again, this is not a funny subject...by the time someone would be at this point, they are in so much pain and despair. I’ve been thinking about this because just yesterday my SIL called me up and was very upset. Her best friend is dying of Cancer...she called my SIL and begged her to bring over a shotgun..begged her. This is no laughing matter, folks.

This guy expects the person using the device to be able to find a vein in which to insert the needle? How many untrained folks could do that, alone, while supposedly sick and weak? Somebody else is going to have to be present to be the phlebotomist.
