We extend more compassion to our animals, than we do our fellow human beings.

Speak for yourself. I would never murder a fellow human being. When given the opportunity, I always choose to care for them.

Murder is one thing.

When a person is being kept alive, with no hope of a cure, no hope of recovery ... and pleads with you to allow them to die.... what do you do?

Do you walk away and pretend you didn’t hear them?

Dr. Kevorkian had people COME TO HIM, who were dying; and he showed them how they could exit, on their terms, and set up his machine such they could activate it - when they were ready.

There is a huge difference between walking into a hospital, and deciding who is going to die; and assisting a person with terminating their life. One choice is involuntary, the other is simply helping a person perform a task that they are phyically incapable of performing now.

100% of Murder victims are unwilling victims. 100% of the patients Dr. Kevorkian assisted, came to him for help.

We both know, that if you were in a car accident this afternoon; and your brain was ‘dead’; the Doctors could keep your body functioning for years, depleting your retirement and insurance benefits to the point that your wife and kids would be homeless and in poverty; and you would still be dead.
