Do you believe in, or advocate, assisted suicide?

If you are assisting someone to die, are you by proxy a murderer?
First, I don’t think we’ve met . Hi!

No, I don’t believe assisting in a suicide is always murder. This is my opinion.

You see things in life that make you realize “dead” is not the worst that can happen.

Intense constant pain, mental or physical. My youngest brother died this year. He was in agony.

Not for an instant would I have dithered if he had made that decision, and asked me to help. That wasn’t his choice.
Do you mean euthanasia? Choosing death by legislation? If so, I agree. Being in healthcare for 28 years, I do value life and choices especially in terminal situations. Define what you mean by assisted suicide.

I am very much in favor of assisted suicide in cases of incurable diseases, unalleviated pain, etc. It is not murder to aid someone end their pain and misery.

I do support it I wouldn't describe myself as an advocate for it but I believe the law should allow it. With appropriate safeguards in place. Ie it shouldn't be little old me feeding someone an overdose. It should be a medical professional after someone suitable has checked the person wishing to end their life is sincere in that wish, not being coerced etc.

Yes I believe in assisted suicide. I'm very glad it is available in Canada.
No one should be made to suffer
Calling it murder is a little ridiculous

@Lilymoon I am not, I am merely repeating what some believe!

We can get lost in words.

But no, I would not say so.
