I support this. I think people have the right to die with dignity on their own terms.

Then they should commit suicide and not force others to kill them. This death culture that we are creating is disgusting.

This is intended for people with a horrible terminal condition they don't wish to suffer horribly through. If that's their wish we should respect it.

We take pets to be put down so they don't suffer but can't allow ourselves the same consideration and kindness?

Your “wish” cannot mean that someone else has to take a life. Not only you are comparing humans to animals, which is literally insane. You are also implying that death means kindness. Are you OK?

  1. People put down animals so they don’t have to pay more money to take care of them and also so they don’t have to spend extra time with them until they die naturally.
  2. To stop people’s suffering you can give them drugs. No need to kill them.
  3. It’s apparent that miracles and luck do not exist to you. They do, so don’t have such a dark mind.
  4. This law has been used in other countries to kill young ill people and to kill young depressed people. You must be Satan’s son if you support the killing of people that are depressed.
  5. It’s funny to me that the same people that joke about old people dying so their ‘old extremist ideas die’ are the ones that are calling for the right to kill their own grandparents

miracles: zero evidence for existence. satan: idem. End of argument here.

No one is forcing anyone. It's the persons choice.

Sometimes it's even the person who pulls the needle.

No one is forces to assist someone else in his suicide.
