How can anyone think this is a good decision? Is no one here afraid of the slippery slope possibilities?

Yeah, sure the law in Oregon has "strict limitations", but the PRECIDENT for "legal suicide" has been SET!

What's next? A law that lets people off themselves if they just don't feel like living anymore? What if someone IS in a coma, like Schiavo was, and are deemed to be "unnecessary", like she was? I guess this decision is a good thing for those who supported her killing. Boy, I hope no one reading this now ever finds themselves in that situation!

"Oh, 47 you're just being paranoid, that will never happen". Yeah, right.

< sigh> Forget it. I'm sure this thread will reach 1000+ posts with people focusing on "individual liberties" instead of the larger issue, which is the ENCOURAGEMENT OF DEATH.

Anytime a society permits death as a means to an end, even in the name of "liberty", it cannot, by DEFINITION survive, because it's killing its own people!

It's that simple and I'm done.
