Starvation deaths are very unpleasant.
Abortion gets ‘em on one end, this gets em on the other. A worldview that accepts abortion has no problem accepting killing the elderly.
“Starvation deaths are very unpleasant.”
If I may append a brutal fact, such deaths are from dehydration, not starvation.
Such deaths are far from free of suffering, but I will spare fellow FReepers the details.
Death by dehydration is easy to spot on the patient charts - look for the NPO which medicalese for Non Per Orem which is nothing by mouth. NPO and no IV for any length of time can only result in dehydration.
Why we approve this form of torture/death instead of allowing a drug to induce a painless death is something I have not understood.
Perhaps others might have more data?
