Man. what do you guys think about this? Me, from a medical and human suffering standpoint I think it should be an option. From a spiritual/religious standpoint, I just don't know. :confused:

Here's my thinking.  It starts out voluntary..and too soon it can be abused.    By doctors/nurses....family perhaps.  Then it becomes coercive or even forced.


We're talking democrats and we're talking Minnesota.  I don't see good things coming out of this.

As long as it's not about money I think it could be looked at for people who are in unbearable agony. If insurance companies start pressuring people to kill themselves because it's cheaper than the treatment that's not okay. So there would have to be laws protecting people from that.

I would hope the doctors can't be forced to do it because if I was a doctor I could not.  I don't think if I was a veterinarian I could do it to animals. As a pet owner I never like to have to chose to get it done.  I could never be the one to actually do it.

Doctors are doing it now you just don't know about it.  They make the determination themselves without family approval or knowledge.  And then their candidate is buried and family hasn't clue one.  Nurses do it too.  So do governors.  What do we want to do?  Make it easier for them to escape any unlikely consequences?

Something like putting China Virus infected seniors into nursing homes?  Or the Obamacare death panels?  Seems democrats are far along in this....

The "cancel culture assassinations" are just a dress rehearsal for the real thing, legalized euthanasia. America has already legalized the murder of infants, why not political opponents?
