They Shoot Horses, don't they?

[denso13]

A fatal dose of opioids (doctor prescribed) can be relatively quick in some and take much longer in others, there is nothing to suggest that would be different with assisted dying. Or worse, as seen with botched death penalties in the US. There may be a way forward that is compassionate but doesn't involve state sponsored suicide, for example cps guidance, or acceptable medical advances. But end of life is not the same as ending life

Do you think people should have the right to ask for assistance at the end of their lives or not?

they already have that.

The bill is about assistance to end their life, due to terminal illness.

It really is that simple.

But gets avoided.

And approves of a large dose of morphine to hasten the end

Amazing that that needed explaining
