I think it should, yes. Why do they have to have something terminally wrong though? Why can't they just want to die? Who are we to decide that someone can or cant handle their life, either close to death, or in their prime? That is a personal decision. The question is, what makes people think that giving life is so great? What gives them the right to judge that creating life is good and destroying it is bad? Every beginning comes from another beginnings end. Destruction is creation, our society is so caught up with morals and ethics and BS, we should be on other planets by now, selling them our technology, or creating a race of creatures who we will eventually sell our technology to. If someone wants to die, kill 'em off. A lot of people are waiting for someone to do just that.

Yes. God, religion, and the Pope aside, I believe that all human beings have the right of self-determination, including the right to have themselves put to death. There may well be a minute number of people who choose this for what are deemed unethical reasons, but the vast and overriding majority would be those who are dying a miserable, prolonged, painful death from which there is no escape.

Yes it should, but it should be controlled so people do not take advantage of it. Like the gold-digging wife bumping of her terminally ill husband because Hugh the cabana boy can't wait another 3 months for him to kick it.

People should have to see three doctors (their own plus two others) who must all agree that the condition is terminally, or incurable. They should also have to undergo psychiatric counselling, before they are allowed to be euthanised. This is to test their mental status and because some people just need someone unbiased to talk to.

if the bed ridden person is willing for euthanasia YES it should be legalised because its his / her life.

people proudly say that life expectancy has increased in India
average age is about 65 and is slowly increasing.
but are those people living a healthy life and at what cost?

citizens who are living with the help of lot of medicine and in some way prolonging death day by day and are making life miserable for themselves and for the family members should think practically not sentimentally can end their life.

no one should wait for law to yes or for what others will think.

it is better to end life than living in hellish conditions.

Of course not. Once people are allowed to manage their own deaths,they might begin to ask for more freedoms. Freedom is a slippery slope, and we don't want to open the flood gates. The U.S. government only really wants freedom incountries like Iraq, where Bush knows that it will never be implemented. He would never be for freedomin the U.S, because people might actually like it and demand more.

...yes... "we" treat our animals and pets better then we treat the irreversible suffering of humans. Notice the "key" word, irreversible... If we can help, make better and aid in the healing... then do so... if not, let not suffering be a way of life.
Yeah, then you'll ask "who" decides etc. etc. your question just asks "should it be"... and yes it should...
