Not at all. I'm just trying to figure our whether you mean what you say.

Do YOU mean what you say either?
This is about euthanasia.
And if they can equate a feeding tube with a ventilator, what else will they equate with it?
A colostomy bag?
A pacemaker?
Prosthetic appendages?
A wheelchair?
They claim this is about 'suffering', but where will it end?
Someone somewhere will see any of the above mentioned items as being a sign of the user 'suffering'.
This is a slippery slope, and rolling over and letting this issue drop isn't an option.

Last time some group decided to show 'compassion' by 'mercy kilings' it ended with millions dead and a global war that didn't really end until two cities had atomic bombs dropped on them.
Just some small perspective on it.
