I actually was surprised that the voters passed this. But what the heck the whole night was full of surprises. I honestly thought I would wake up today to find out that Rossi was our governor. The liberals have such a stranglehold on this state I don’t know if we can ever break free.
I will add Washington to my ever-growing list of western states I never plan to visit again. Along with Oregon, Nevada, New Mexico and Montana.
There’s always Idaho, though. Or Utah.
HOWEVER
Having someone help you kill yourself is just asking for all sorts of stupid situations. Can you imagine all the dumb circumstances this is going to create:
Deciding at last minute not to kill yourself, but talked into anyway
Having someone decide you are to chicken to kill yourself and they help you anyway against your objection.
Handicaps, Retards, Old timers, all are going to be persuaded to kill themselves ... or helped without being persuaded ...
[insert stupid scenario here] etc ...
Talk about a stupid initiative.
If you cant commit suicide on your own, you have lost your right to do it.
St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle
Be our protection against the wickedness
and snares of the devil;
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God,
Thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits
who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen

This is absolutely wrong. Not only should doctors NOT assist suicide, they should warn their patients about what can kill them.
It is a moral duty.
