Do you support the right to assisted suicide or the death penalty for abortion doctors?

If you care to express your view,
go ahead.

Answer 1

I think that assisted suicide should be a right. I would rather have a medical professional helping me to die, rather then blow my brains all over with a gun or something and I think suicide should be a right.

As for the death penalty for abortion doctors, what are you nuts. Isn't there enough killing in the world without killing a doctor for performing a medical procedure.

Answer 2

I think that if anyone kills another human being should get the death penalty especially an abortion doc. He is making money from killing an Innocent child. As far as suicide goes nobody has the right to cause that much pain in the life's of others that the victim leaves behind, And i honestly believe if the person that committed the horrible killing of their self's if they knew ahead of time what kind of grief and pain and sorrow and confusion it causes upon the ones left to deal with it they would never do such an awful hurtful thing to their self and also I believe when someone commits suicide I don't think they are in their right mind at the time.

Answer 3

Assisted suicide should be legal. And death penalty for abortion doctors? Last I heard abortion still is legal, and should remain so, therefore a death penalty for the doctors is a mute point.

Answer 4

i dunno if the first guy is the best choice, he says it should be a right to kill yourself, but then in the next paragraph, he says there is too much killing already. that's inconsistent. I agree that there is too much killing. So you shouldn't be allowed to kill yourself (its selfish), but you should be allowed to die naturally and without extraordinary help.

PS: the death penalty should be reserved for hopeless causes or places that have no jailing systems.

objections to kill_yr_tele...'s falsehoods:

and for abortion, life is created at the moment of conception, so I'd say a fetus is a life. I believe a women has rights, the right to put the baby up for adoption, why should a pregnant women get to choose if someone lives or not, that's up to God. No one has the right to murder.

Objections to assisted suicide and abortion are based on morality.I think our government should have a basis of morality, don't you?

Answer 5

Im against abortion and the death penalty for anyone. It cost more money to put someone to death than to keep them alive in prison for the rest of there days.Who knows when life begins for sure? So why risk murder?

Answer 6

The basic question here is really "Who owns your body?"

If your body belongs to you, then you have the right to refuse unwanted medical treatment, you have the right to take the risk of very high doses of pain medication, including risk of death.

We don't have any clear agreement on whether or not a fetus is a person, and if yes whether this person's right to exist supersedes a woman's right to control her own body. (Don't start in with the PETA argument that if it has fingers and a heart beat, it has rights. That's a laughable position.) We DO know that an woman IS a person and DOES have rights. So we should go with what we know, rather than some faith based conjecture.

Objections to assisted suicide and abortion are based on religion. If our government gives force of law to religious belief, we are no longer a free people, we are a theocracy.

Answer 7

NO I DON'T. AND I DON'T SUPPORT ABORTIONS EITHER. THE MAKING OF LEGALIZED ABORTIONS WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO THOUGH. WOMAN WERE DYING FROM SELF PERFORMED PROCEDURES. I THINK THAT WOMAN WHO USE THEM AS A FORM OF CONTRACEPTIVE THOUGH SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH MURDER.WHY WOULD ANY ONE NEED MULTIPLE ABORTIONS IN ONE LIFETIME? BUT THEY NEED TO HAVE IT REQUIRED THAT THE WOMEN HAVE A PHYCHIATRIC EVALUATION BEFORE EVER PROCEDURE IS DONE. IT SHOULD NEVER BE PERFORMED ON ANYONE WHO IS BEING FORCED. AS FAR AS ASSISTING SOMEONE TO DIE, HELL NO. WHEN A LOVED ONE HELPS YOU TO DIE THEY ARE DOING MORE FOR THEMSELVES THAN FOR THE PERSON THEY ARE HELPING.
