New Zealand to Introduce Extreme Assisted Suicide Law
Reformation Charlotte ^ | October 30, 2020 | Staff

New Zealand has voted to introduce an extreme assisted suicide law in a binding public referendum.

Preliminary results, announced by the country’s electoral commission today, show 65.2% of voters supported the End of Life Choice Act coming into force as a new law.

An estimated 480,000 special votes still need to be counted, but the margin between the support and opposition is so wide that the referendum is likely to succeed.

The official results of the euthanasia vote will be published November 6, with the new law coming into effect one year later.

The introduction of the law follows New Zealand introducing the world’s most extreme abortion law earlier this year. Both changes were backed by Jacinda Ardern...

New Zealand has become a test platform for the Elite’s stratagems. Gun confiscations, quarantine camps for Covid-19 tracing resisters, and now “involuntary“ Euthanasia.

Wake up and get ready for what is coming...

Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always**, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

They will probably spike a drink with something to mellow the vic out first.

I was thinking the suicide had to be extreme.

Examples of extreme suicide:

Both, at least initially.

Eventually, killing one kindly will go to the opposite extreme. Cheaper that way.

Back when Holland first made suicide legal, many elderly people refused to go to physicians for common illnesses as they feared the Dr might decide, on his own, that the patient had “no quality of life” left and give them poison instead of medicine.

We already have assisted suicide in the United States. It’s called the living will, or advanced health care directive. When you remove a patient from life support or deny them food and water because of instructions in their AHCD, you’re killing them just as surely as if you gave them a cup of hemlock to drink.

As time went on, those older folks were proven to be quite correct.

I recall reading several articles from different sources where it was shown the doctors were actually doing that, simply based on asking the FAMILY MEMBERs if they believed it should be done.

Talk about a freaking conflict of interest.

It’s amazing, how many folks think this type of ‘death process’ is painless and nice. Starvation and/or dehydration is not in any way, at all, painless or nice.

My father, with his 2nd wife had decided on having her in Hospice at the house. He lives in MD, by the way... On the 2nd day he actually told them to get their stuff and get the hell out of his house. My step-mother lasted a good while afterwards. He was so PISSED. He was told by the Hospice folks that once they were in the house he lost the legal right to make a different decision.

Wrong thing to say to a former son-of-a-sharecropper from Mississippi.

He told them quite clearly how to exit the hell out of the house.

So, so, many people do not understand in some states what happens.

When that dipshit of a Bush in Florida couldn’t even protect one woman from death, it sent millions of folks like my beloved and myself to our attorneys. Why? To make sure we would be treated humanely at the end of life and not as freaking lab rats to be observed during the ‘death process.’

Whew. I really must get off my soapbox.

Now, what? In some countries children are allowed to make their ‘own’ decision about death? It’s all about getting humanity to the lowest level of caring.... UGH.
