your opinions about euthanasia.

(go look it up on google if you don't know what it is, but here's a short, concise description)
euthanasia is currently illegal. it's assisting a person in killing him/herself. (kind of like helping someone die... who really wants to die)

2 examples:
> a man has incurable cancer and wants to be put to the end of his suffering. if a doctor supplies him with morphine to kill himself, that would be considered illegal.

> a kid is miserable and wants to suffocate himself. but natural human reflex forces you to loosen up when you start suffocating, so the kid asks his buddy to hold down a plastic bag over his head. if the friend agrees to help, that's considered illegal...


there are a lotta pros and cons points to this...
some pros:
1 put out of misery
2 more room in hospital

some cons:
1 its murder



we did this in debate team last year. just wanted to hear what you guys hafta say about the moral issues, etc.

I'm for mandatory euthanasia.

It worked for the Germans.
