New Law Passed: Mentally handicapped will be forcible EUTHANIZED?

Question

http://www.thehealthcareblog.com/the_health_care_blog/2004/12/policyethics_fo.html
What do you think of the new US law to euthanize mentally retarded people who are unable to care for themselves? I think this had to be done to get our budget under control but it is still sad. Should we perhaps extend euthanasia to prisoners serving life sentences and also the elderly with terminal disease?

Answer 1

i think that sick. it makes me want to throw up! is this REALLY a law? the US is so disturbed. they say its a free country. a free country for who? the young rich and beautiful. mentally challanged people are loved too, just because they cannot physically care for themselves doesnt make it right to kill them. they still have feelings. its like if we dont like someone we just kill them off instead of dealing with the problem. im disgusted by what this nation has grown into. i will defiantly not let my children grow up in the morbid atmosphere. its not there fault they were born like this.

Answer 2

in case you like a sturdy talk board of opinion in this i could reccomend you watch the sequence Torchwood: Miracle Day and look on the somewhat some discussions that began. What in fact happens is no person can die anymore(in any respect) or perhaps bullet wounds to the top enable the guy to stay. yet healing continues to be customary, no longer invulnerability or speedy healing or something like that. So 1000's of human beings are born each and every day and no person dies in any respect. They finally end up having to 'save' the human beings who're ideas lifeless and wounded,and so on. I won't inform you greater for spoiler protection.

Answer 3

Once upon a time man, as all other creatures, lived by " survival of the fittest," but man has proceed to have the weak and useless survive and on top of that multiply. Therefore the over all natural level of man kind has slowly been reduced and all future generations will pay and pay for this foolish and illogical action. Also, once there were no " Lifers " in prison...again the unproductive of society carry on the drain the over all resources of man kind. This is merely based upon reality and logic, without prejudice or animosity.

Answer 4

Wow...Have to recommend checking your facts before you post stuff here.

You can't even VOLUNTARILY be euthanized here in the U.S. There's NO CHANCE they'll ever make it mandatory!

Maybe you should read the article. It's actually about euthanasia of infants born with severe, incurable problems - in the Netherlands!

Answer 5

I'm going to call you what you are...a TROLL.

Every other word on that page is "DUTCH"

The finishing paragraph was written by a Dutch reader who was pi$$ed off at American News Sources for mis-representing laws in their country.

Pretty much like you did with this question....when you failed to read the source you posted....dumb@$$

Answer 6

There is no such law in the United States. Even the article that you posted (from 2004) notes that they are looking at changes in DUTCH law.

Answer 7

You cannot believe everything you read on the internet. If so, by now I could leave three trails in the sand at a nude beach

Answer 8

See? This is what always happens to globalists! They bablle and try to afix those laws here.

Answer 9

Finally some work is getting done around here.

Answer 10

I think it's so wrong. I never even treated someone badly who was disabled becaus it's not only stupid but it's not cool and to kill someone just because they are born disabled is wrong.
