what I am talking about is people who are going to die, or who are going to end up in a vegetable state, braindead, who want to end their lioves with soem dignity, with some semblance of themselves still existing.
have you ever watched a loved one die of cancer, watching their bodies and brains get eaten up from within, taking a YEAR or more to die? Lying in a bed, shitting themselves, unable to talk for the last 4 months of life, weighing 75lbs? I HAVE. I watched my father die slowly and ignobly and painfully. The horror in his eyes for the last 3 months of "life" was something that fucked me up for years and years. fuck that shit man.
Go read up on euthanasia and Dr kevorkian and his crusade for people to duie with dignity, not to die numbed by morphine for the last months of their lives.

yes, actually I HAVE watched several loved ones die from cancer. it is not easy, but that does not give anyone the right to add needless options. I have also watched several people have full recovery from terminal cancers in stage D, so it is not hopeless. I went went my grandmother to her chemo twice a week when I was kid for nearly a year. she should have died twice, and the was in immense pain, had to have a colonoscopy etc.... etc.. and yet, she absolutely NEVER lost her will to live. now, what if my Grandmother, in a darker more depressed moment, decided to kill herself rather then endure? Further, my friend, be honest with yourself, we all feel hopeless and depressed sometimes, and some of us to the point of suicidal thoughts, but we cant just
legitimize these thoughts because of pain. no good will come from it I assure you....
what if everybody killed themselves everytime they felt like it? we might start piling up bodies like at Jonestown I swear, think about how depressed the world is right now. one hundred million prescriptions for anti-depressant medication in America alone last year...
