So, the second scenario I presented in post 82 would be acceptable? If not, why not?
Because it involves sacrificing someone else .

There is nothing wrong with combat pilots crashing their planes into enemy ships, buildings, or troop formations.

. It is absolutely wrong for combat pilots to shoot down their wingmen so their planes would crash into enemy ships, buildings, or troop formations.

Can you read?

I said the SECOND SCENARIO in post 82. I'll post it again:

Or what if a mom gets breast cancer when her kids are in their teen years? If she chooses treatment the family may have to drain their savings (intended for college tuition) to fund it. Instead, she could just choose assisted suicide right after the diagnosis. Sure, she might have survived the cancer, but this way no matter what the final outcome would have been, her kids will get to go to a good school.

Would that be acceptable? If not, why not?
