Australian euthanasia campaigner Dr Philip Nitschke holds up a plastic "Exit" bag. That Photo is out of Date. Now it is a Drink that gives you the Exit. "We're talking about rational adults. They should have that option and when people have that option they stop worrying about it. Elderly folks stop worrying about it and they actually live longer, so we need to have some way of giving people access to choice." http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-...e_Right_To_Die He was on Sky News saying Adults should be able to board his ship. I guess it could be called the Down Under Death Ship. Sign Of The Times. |

Fair enough. It's up to people what to do with their lives, even if it means ending them.

Like many things in life this is a choice issue and I dont believe anyone should be denied the right to choose what is right for their own life or body.

He had a Talk in Bournmouth
and loads of Old Folks were happy to visit Dr.Death. (well thats what the Bloated BBC just called him) Some even paid extra to see him in Private It was held in a Private Hotel with Worldwide Media buying Tea. No Bag over your head just a simple Drink you can buy. A better way to go as jumping on Rail Lines and the like is not fair to others. Sign Of The Times. |

I can't grasp how other people can take issue with euthanasia - it's a choice. There are, in every case I can think of, always valid reasons for a person wishing to be euthanised, normally because they're terminally ill and will live a poor quality of life if they continue living. Why would anyone want to oppose that? It's cruel to deny someone that opportunity - regardless of "morals", it's surely worse to make someone suffer than to let them kill themselves!?

It is the Church people moaning that someone could be down and then do it. But that is Bollocks |
