As a supporter of medically assisted suicide, I will remind you that this is the 10th leading cause of death in the good old united states. If you break it down by age, the picture gets much worse:
2nd leading cause: People ages 10–34.
4th leading cause: People ages 35–44.
5th leading cause: People ages 45–54


Could you please link up that data?

Not that I don't believe you, but it is a very hard sell considering only 10 states allow it. That would mean assisted suicide is overly heavy in those 10 states. I only did a very quick search after reading your post and didn't see much.

Can we start killing the violent criminals first?

Why is it a problem if people are agreeing to it?

The claim hospice care is giving elderly patients these two meds on a 2 hour basis is ludicrous. It would likely kill them


Hmmm, I wonder if that's the point he was trying to make? People in hospice do tend to die very soon after entering hospice, both my great-grandfather and grandfather died within 2 days of entering hospice. The whole point of hospice is comfort, whatever needs to be done to make the patient comfortable is done, regardless of how much it shortens their remaining life. It's de facto MAS, it's just not considered so because it kills you over hours to days and not over seconds to minutes.

MAID


Calling physician assisted suicide medical aid in dying is absurd.

Physicians aid patents in the dying process frequently to control symptoms and provide comfort. That’s not the same thing as killing them.

It is not uncommon(around here anyway) for the patient to be prescribed morphine and ativan very 2 hours on an alternating basis.


Controlling symptoms of terminal agitation/anxiety and dyspnea to alleviate suffering is completely different than euthanasia and I’m sure you know that already.

That data is for all suicides in the US. Not just assisted.

Suicide is a major problem in the us. So much so that the left often colors gun crime data with suicides to make the gun violence problem seem dramatically bigger than it is.

The government has a monopoly on the use of justified force, at least thats how it is meant to work.

quote:

Military action protecting our freedoms
Death penalty
Protecting your family from other persons.


These are all things they have a moral obligation to undertake to varying degrees as holders of such a monopoly. None of this involves killing innocent people who just happen to be a little sad at this point in their life or may have a terrible illness like cancer.

You originally said that Canada didn't kill people like this. Now, you are making excuses for it. Be consistent.
