Comparing assisted suicide to abortion is comparing apples to oranges.

Physician assisted suicide involves a person deciding for themselves they wish to die, while abortion, on the other hand, is having death forced upon them by someone else.

Perhaps you are right, one is the murder of innocent infants, one is the murder of innocent adults.

Physician assisted suicide involves a person deciding for themselves they wish to die,

Except when it DOESN'T:

Actually they are very similar.

Both involve non-natural death, and both involve the medical profession in killing instead of healing, and both involve large government meddling and beaurocracies and funding. And both are beloved causes of leftists.

Not really. How many people decide they are going to have an abortion, and how many people “decide” because thats what everyone else wants them to do?
