NO NO NO a thousand times no. Sheen is still a total libtard Obama supporting jackass, and I totally disagree with him (and some of you) on the assisted suicide issue. Talk to someone suffering from ALS or certain other HORRIBLE diseases. They have every right to decide when they’re done suffering/fighting. Thanks to idiots like Sheen thinking they have a right to make decisions for others, my dad had to take a much less dignified path to end his own suffering. To make matters even worse, he knew he couldn’t tell any of us, so no time for goodbyes.
Shame on everyone out there who assumes the right to decide personal issues for others, whether it’s time to die or whether or not we can salt our food. I hope you never face anything as horrible as ALS, but it’s easy to judge when it’s not YOU losing more of your independence each day, unable to swallow food, or take a decent breath of air. /end rant

I submit that the tragic loss of your father, and the resulting grief you have no doubt suffered, renders your objectivity moot.

Uh...some of us ARE struggling with terrible (truly awful) elder care issues and we still refuse to accept legalized euthanasia. If that's the why you feel, you need to seek outside help for your feelings. You cannot go through ALS or senility issues alone. I'm learning that now. You need to take time for yourself so you don't give in to the euthanasia fantasy. Euthanasia is NOT a conservative principle.
