What are your thoughts on this?
For those of you that don't know what it is, Euthanasia is the term used for an assisted suicide. Basically helping someone who wants to die but for whatever reason, can't do it by themselves.
There have been cases of this but more often than not, the person that helped them was jailed for manslaughter. I personally, think that it's wrong to jail someone for Euthanasia. I think that if you are in intolerable physical pain every day of your life because of a serious long term illness or you're old and debilitated and have been proved sound of mind, then it should be allowed. Obviously there should be some kind of guidelines set up with strict monitoring and so forth but I personally am pro choice on this issue.
I think the Swiss have got the right Idea when it comes to Euthanasia but then I think they've got the right idea when it comes to a lot of things. But that is for another day.
Anyways, thoughts? Has this issue affected you personally? How would you feel if someone in your family or a friend wanted it? How do you feel about death in general? Would you support the decision?
