I really believe a lot of this has to do with fear of death. People who are afraid of dying may want to be drugged. And family members who are afraid of their relatives experiencing pain may want them drugged. If it wasn’t an option, it wouldn’t be such a difficult decision. Sort of like abortion...
But not exactly, because those experiencing death as a result of drug overdose could and should have some say in the matter. But fatal overdosing should still be illegal. Sorry to be harsh.
I don’t think your opinion is harsh at all. I also disagree that fear of death is necessarily involved. I think comparing it to abortion is misguided.
