Should assisted suicide be a federal right

[Man of Ethics]

I ain’t well !!!

Please speak to a therapist and a rabbi.

May G-d help you!

Half the city here is either on illegal drugs or is mentally ill

Why a Federal right? Why not leave it up to the states? States can now compel rape victims to carry resulting pregnancies to term. They can compel vaccinations. They can tell you what you can eat, drink, smoke, fuck, think, and speak. Our bodies and lives are subject to whatever the state thinks appropriate.

In other words, not much has changed in 6000 years.

It’s very odd ???
Old age just comes at you like a bolt of lightning

I go to bed a young man and wake up like an old one

Life insurance does not pay out for suicide. For this reason people have to endure slow lingering death for the sake of their loved ones. This is why there has to be a law that protects suicide for the terminally ill.

Not true.

The truth about suicide & life insurance | Coverage.com

It doesn’t matter how old you are, what your financial situation is, or the status of your health. Suicide and its contributing factors can affect anyone, and for those left behind, it’s something that can never be fully understood.

www.coverage.com

Most insurance companies have a 2 year exclusion clause for suicide. After 2 years the death benefit will be paid assuming the policy premium is paid up to date even if the cause of death is suicide.

 

[Blues Man]

Most make the decision, and carry it out, privately.

I would add to this.

Carry it out but don't leave your mess for someone else to clean up.

 

[sparky]

I think most deserve the chance to die with dignity and efficiency

Perhaps there should be a Suicide Pill.

The question was should the government ASSIST in a suicide nothing about the government telling someone how to end their life.

well yeah the point of insurance is for accidents not intentional things you do.

Not true.

Most life insurance policies will pay out even for suicide after the policy has been in force for 2 years

 

[occupied]

The point of insurance is to make money for the insurance company.

The point of insurance is to make money for the insurance company.

well yeah they want to make money, that’s the point of running a business. The product they sell is insurance…and insurance is not met for intentional things…who would insure someone if they have to pay out when someone does something intentional to themselves or property?

interesting never heard of. such a policy

i suppose there could be such a product for life insurance…but i was speaking in general for insurance

for example my home owners insurance isn’t going to pay me if i purposely take a hammer to my wall.

The only insurance that would come into play for suicide is life insurance.

 

[struth]

The only insurance that would come into play for suicide is life insurance.

I suppose that makes some sense after two years, because the person being paid is the surivor...with that said, they wouldn't pay if that person murdered the policy holder.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Suicide is an overt act and presumably a decision by the victim. You do the hardworking people in the medical field a disservice when you accuse them of assisted suicide when they terminate life support.

I am not talking about terminating life support.
Look up what a DNR is.
Also terminally ill patients have to choose between spending $10k's - $100k to keep someone alive to only die anyway days or weeks later - or simply let them comfortably die.

It seems that nut case assisted suicide fanatics want to leave it up to the other nut case to pull the trigger.

 

[Baron Von Murderpaws]

I fully support, back, advocate, condone, and endorse forced assisted suicide for all Democrats, starting immediately.
