Rubbish. Why would any assisted dying doctor authorise a person that isn't going to naturally die within 12 months? This should only be for terminally ill people.
@@notyourordinarygran I am very sorry but it is a slippery slope. If we could be assured that it wouldnt seep out into other areas I would support. I was in support until I heard of a young girl in Belgium who had ptsd from a terrorist attack who decided to go the Dignitis route. That is wrong and said.

animals literally have greater rights in this area of the law. they’re allowed to be put down if their pain is deemed enough, but with humans many are so against the right to live or die humanely given to humans to the point where some would rather have a human alive and suffering daily miserable then have them choose to end their own life. humans should not be forced to stay alive.
Same here. I watched my father turn to a bag of bones (the big C). I'm now caring for my mother with Alzheimer's, another horrible way to go. I don't want my family to see me die in confusion and pain. No God for me.
I think it absolutely should be accessible. My neighbor killed himself with a gun in his backyard after 12 back surgeries that still didn't solve his back pain.
Well then the issue is that the back surgeries should have been done properly, not giving the state the power to kill people because of an illness or injury
ABSOLUTELY! I have been in EMS for 24 years and have seen a lot of terminally ill patients that had to suffer excruciating pain. Why is it that we have more compassion for animals not wanting them to suffer but have no compassion for those that want to end their life?
Initially I was sceptical of the potential of abuse but after reading New Zealand’s law and watching its implementation it’s something I am 100% on board with
Very well presented content that I feel represented the case for and against the issue quite well. Whichever site people stand on I think its right and proper that we should have a free and open debate about something like this. Its the sort of thing that I think a citizens assembly would be very well placed to discuss I do wonder if such an issue even if it passes both houses of parliament should have some sort of referendum(although I really would not want this to be something antagonistic like the Brexit referendum which is why I suggest maybe a citizens assembly as a way of incorporating some more direct democracy into the issue).
Animals get better rights than humans . If an animal is suffering they just put ta sleep. Yet humans have to suffer until there last breath. Both my parents have put DNRs in place. Its about time this was made legal.
Belgium has very poor palliative care because everyone chooses to die. Where does that leave those that dont wish to kill themselves. We need better care for those with terminal conditions not criminalising people for providing adequate pain relief. Dont kill. Also in the countries that have gone down this right to die it has seeped into mental health, disability etc. not good. Look under the lid of this, people are being given the option to kill themselves if things are too much because they cant get enough social care.
I moved from Tampa to Santa Clara a few months ago and I’m thinking of purchasing a single family home there, but with real estate prices currently through the roof, is it still a good idea to buy a home or should I invest in stocks for now and just wait for a housing market correction? Looks like NVDA, TSM and AMD and AVGO are strong buys this week.
I have seen my father and both my in laws slowly fade away in a nursing home. If I had a choice I
know what I would prefer.

No, it won't. There will be controls in place to protect anyone unable to consent.
A risk to talk vulnerable people into it. Careful not to turning into assisted murder...

I always think about it
Yes! If I’m sick and there’s no cure I ain’t waiting for no god to take me! I’m going my way
call the samaritans

The Samaritans are for people with depression, not someone making a reasonable decision to end their life.

What can they do? Throw her in jail?
No!!
Absolutely no
Animals in pain and suffering can have their life’s ended yet humans can’t

Hope so. Sick. Of this world.

it’s a personal decision, but according to Forbes, housing activities will remain stagnant for the most part of the year, so maybe hold off a little.
No It is a slippery slop
“Slop” is pretty slippery.
No.
Do we think mentally ill or suffering people should be allowed it aswell or just for peoole who have an incureable disease/illnesses
It's cheaper than treatment
@@adamshatwellwow and that folks sums it up and the real reason

No
And don't entrap next of kin. I nearly had that, even though the Belgian system gave me no say.
Ask Jehovah for help Esther. Don't end it too soon. Trust in this message. Ask Jehovah for help. Do not worry woman
I’m just not 100% sure about this . I think it would need two or three professionals to determine if it was ok .
poor Esther I thought you'd gone years ago😊❤
