69% of Americans probably don't know what euthanasia is

The American sheeple have just opened the door for that familiar phrase to be ushered in:
“For the convenience of the State.”

Would you say that death has become “wildly popular” among 69% of the people living in this country?

quote “when a person has an incurable disease and requests euthanasia”

the key phrase here is the above.

This is a far cry from what the title suggests.

The question as asked would include someone asking to be taken off life support or end other types of treatment and simply be allowed to take pain killers while they pass away.

I have no intention of being stuck in hospital at my end. Once my number is up (if given the time and the choice) I will choose to go home and LIVE out whatever time I have left in whatever way I choose and control the pain with medication until the end.

I know JR and many on this board disagree, but I will say only once what I deeply feel.

The decision to end one’s own life is the most personal intimate and decision one can make. It is between the individual and his/her God or god(s). The State has no business interfering with that decision, and attempts to do so is statism in its worse possible form.

The only individuals who should even be involved in the decision should be those who know and love the person involved — but the person is the final decision-maker. Strangera should butt out completely.

End of rant.

Interesting headline. Was thinking 68% of Americans would be gone soon and real estate collusion and corruption would collapse. Of course, everything else would too.

They agree to a question posed on the telephone. That doesn’t mean that they would choose it for themselves or a family member.

This administration wants to force us to pay for euthanasia, abortions and sex “change” operations.

I can recommend almost 50% of the population for the process.

that if they personally had an incurable disease and were living in severe pain would they “consider ending their own lives by some painless means.
Therefore we have the government medical review board aka the death board. After all saving money was the sale point.

Is it wrong that I thought of Gilda Radner’s Emily Litella and her misinformed rants when I saw the title of this thread?

By a not-so-strange coincidence, thanks to public education, an even greater percentage of the American people does not know anything, about anything.

“EUTHANASIA” is just a nice-sounding word substitute for
“SUICIDE”. - Just as “ABORTION” is for “BABY MURDER”.
(In some cases, euthanasia is murder if it’s done without
consent.) With consent, it’s suicide AND murder.

I personally know of at least three families who couldn’t wait for a well-off elder to join the dearly departed.

And the elders involved were some of the sweetest people I’d ever met, so I don’t know how their kids became so cold-hearted.

I have a hard time believing this poll - at least partly because I do not want to believe it.

The problem is the slippery slope...look at Europe...and shat is hidden is there are killings of the sick by rogue personnel who decided the person should die.

and, like the Nazis, you will see it promoted in films.. an upcoming film Me over you, promotes the idea that euthanasia is good if you are disabled.

The disability activists are up in arms because it essentially says the disabled are better off dead.
