What I mean is that if they want to kill themselves, they already can do it. I agree it isn’t right in a moral sense but you can’t stop someone who really wants to kill themselves. What this “right to die” movement advocates is much more than simply a right to kill yourself. Its state-sanctioned MEANS to kill yourself. It will become part of taxpayer subsidized healthcare at some point.

I understand.

Just trying to make the point that having the power to do something doesn’t equate to having the right to do something.
