You should be given the Hyperbole Award.
In order for policy to become law the government must be involved, whether on the local or federal level. Once policy is passed, it’s the governments responsibility to oversee the implementation and practice of policy, whether this involves abortion, euthanasia, or gun control, etc....
If an individual decides to take his life, that is his freedom.
“...laughable” What a moronic statement. I don’t even know who George Lane is. You also win the False Equivocation Award. Apples and oranges, my friend. We’re not talking about a man choosing to crawl up stairs and being arrested. We’re talking, or, I’m talking about government setting policy with an ulterior motive and using people and their desperation to do it.
“... your ghoulish laughter echos...”
You’re kidding me, right. What are ya, a drama queen? Humane my ass. Killing yourself, or having someone kill you; it’s all horrible. And while you’re at it, I’ve sat at the bedside of loved ones who were dying. They died with dignity, though not by the assistance of a physician, except to administer relief from pain.
“Maybe in your leftist...” Nice twist. You’re an award winning drama queen and ballerina.
“I suppose that’s why you want to control them.”
You can’t control people in the privacy of their own homes, but you sure can control them when they are in a vegetative state without a voice, eh. Terri Schiavo comes to mind. Or how about that doctor that kill all her patients in New Orleans. Oh, how humane of her, although they did not request death.
Click on a UK news agency and check out all those “humane” killings. How did that work out? Not very well for those patients, but hey, it was humane and loving.
And how abhorrent it would be to overcome your ignorance!
Here you go...
"Can Disabled People Be Forced to Crawl Up the Courthouse Steps?"
Obviously, you feel that anyone can walk up courthouse steps, if you believe anyone can commit suicide at will.
I find your disregard for disabled persons to be absolutely abhorrent. Call it hyperbole if you wish, but so it is.
