One of the reasons, certainly, was because her state would not allow assisted suicide. That forced her to move elsewhere to die.
I wonder why Ms. Maynard did not just do it herself in her home state?
No, actually it wasn't. I didn't ask why she moved to OR. I asked why, if this act of self-destruction was so personal and private, she felt the need to make it such a public spectacle? I don't care where she did it, except for the fact OR is a deep blue state and as always with Liberals there is an exaltation of death.
