Dear Dr Ken Stevens: "Death with vanity?" Fuck you, you fucking sanctimonious prick. Let's see how much bullshit you talk about vanity and control when it's your dumb ass dying in agony.

the general message of this is right on; however, stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason.

@slaughtz Also, no one can argue against self ownership, without exercising ownership over themselves (using their vocal cords to speak, fingers to type, brain to formulate sentences, ect).

The problem with euthanasia,assisted suicide or whatever you want to call it is that, if it becomes legal, there will be some sick doctors/nurses that will kill old people who do not wish to die even if they are in pain.
And there's another problem. The requirements for a safe and precise way of utilizing euthanasia will cause such a process of discussions and meetings with the subject that they may die from natural causes before the reasons for them wanting to die are seen as valid.

@AlekSensej Nope, this custom actually EXISTED here in Serbia too. Just was not practiced as much. Mom told me the details: they would place bread on the old guys head and smack him with an axe. That way, it wasn't the sibling killing him, it was the bread that killed him. Of course, today, we quit doing that. (I hope XD)

@Ritualist89 The only country that killed there old people before the age of 50 is Sparta.I know the show is funny and all but not all the sides are represented as they should. Depending on where the elder people live and there genes they are going to be more or less active.

AHAHAHA! Didn't expect Serbia joke at the end. XD Very sweet, me coming from Serbia, find this highly amusing. Reminds me of time we knocked my grandad. We were nice. Although he wondered why whole city gathered to see him eat spaghetti. And why were that much spicy?

What do think that they aren't going to be old someday?
The way I want to die would surely have to be in a state of euphoria! High higher than ever... Gonna buy £60 of crack and £40 of brown and die with that great feeling! Ive cleaned up myself but thats the way I want to end my life if it doesn't get ended before its intended!
By the time its over, I'd be gone far enough to care or give a shit about relapses!

Three cheers for Bullshit for speaking truth to power! I for one find old people much more agreeable than young people!
1) Any young people need to realise, we didn't invent the internet, or tv, or the car... So younger people who are born with these advantages need to thank old people for giving them to us.
2) What would you choose, 2 years of agony where you can not even stand the pain of breathing or a quick simple death now? What quality of life is it where you are stuck in a bed in agony watching your family worry about you. Forget assisted suicide, id go find a big fucker building and jump!

@eklera I own me. Not God. Not the government. Fuck the idea that anyone or anything else does.
Why do I say my life is mine? Logic. If I do not own me, then I cannot be consistently blamed for sin or anything I do that is malicious.
