WaggleBee,
The doctor and nurses were NOT deliberately trying to "murder" the patients ...
Had "deliberate murder" been their goal, they would have put a 45 to the patients heads, and pulled the trigger ...
Or even better yet, the doctor and nurses would have SIMPLY LEFT THE HOSPITAL and ABANDONED the patients.
If it would have been one of my parents, or children, perhaps terminally ill in that post-Katrina New Orleans HELLHOLE (where I lived for 20 years) ... I would have felt much better knowing that my family member's suffering from Unbearable Pain, in the face of certain death ... was minimized ... and that the doctor's "extra" dose of pain medication would be "quite" acceptable.
BTW. I'm a Christian, too ...

To: Patton@Bastogne
Please answer these questions for me:
Did they administer lethal doses of drugs or not? Yes or no?
Did these lethal doses of drugs cause the patients' death? Yes or no?
Were these lethal doses of drugs given in order to cause or hasten death? Yes or no?
Was there a lack of consent from the patients to use lethal doses of drugs? Yes or no? (I suppose that some were unable to consent due to their condition.)
If the answer to these questions is "yes," then I call it murder, not matter what justification the doctor has about how horrible the conditions were.
