This is where assisted suicide comes into place. If you’re going to kill a person, make it swift and painless.

“This is where assisted suicide comes into place. If you’re going to kill a person, make it swift and painless.”

Even for a 17-year-old.

"This is where assisted suicide comes into place. If you’re going to kill a person, make it swift and painless."

I cannot agree. That's like saying don't mess with random fires, let's just do an intentional controlled demolition of Notre Dame. Fast results, less mess.

From the family members who valued his life:

"This cathedral of humanity that had been burning for a week under our powerless eyes has collapsed. No account has been taken of the dignity of this handicapped man, [who] was condemned because he was handicapped.

"For the first dignity of all is to respect a person's life."

This was not assisted suicide. Or any kind of suicide.

He did not refuse food or water it was denied him.

This was out and out murder.

Vincent did not want to die. From the Opening Post: “..showing a remarkable will to live ..”.

Furthermore assistant suicide is WRONG in any event.
