Pushing Starvation as "Death with Dignity"

But what about people who can eat and drink by mouth? Assisted suicide advocates argue that it isn't fair that they can't die too. So, activists promote a form of "self-deliverance" that they call "voluntary stopping eating and drinking," (VSED), by which suicidal people declare their wish to starve to death. Bioethicist Paul T.

Court Imposes Assisted Suicide in New Mexico

Jan 14, 2014
Tweet
comments on a court judgment in New Mexico. The judgment in favour of assisted suicide was given in a lower court, so we hope and expect an appeal by the New Mexico attorney-general. Wesley SmithIf you ever wonder why there are so many radical and extreme lawsuits, wonder no more. As I have often said about a variety of issues, it only takes one judge to break down the walls of democratic governance and impose an ideological view. Continue reading
