Well, first, let me appologize for my belated reply. The first thing I would like to say is, GF Salmo g. The great thing about these boards is that you can go back and read what you typed. The previous 2 posts I put on this thread were pure questions and I was looking for an answer. Anyone suggesting my opinion on an issue from a question is guilty of being a dumb ass. Anyone who does not have a legitimate answer should STFU about how I feel about it and worry about there own well being.

I understand you could just be poking the bear because he is fun to piss off. No problem, thats OK, I accept that, please keep poking.

I have just spent the weekend dealing with the death of my wifes mother. Nothing terminal, she just checked out in the middle of the night. Believe me, I just found out, cost is very much an important issue when regarding death.

If you care, my mother has just been diagnosed with liver cancer. I'll will let you know that she wants to fight/live because that is her natural instinct to do what she or her doctors can do keep her alive. We are unsure of the future and certanly scared. I will also let yo know that cost and quality of care are an issue.

So, again, GF Salmo g., for assuming my beliefs and then directing it towards yourself.

You also bring up the point of personal freedom. Personal freedom is a much larger issue than just assisted suicide. Personal freedom is huge. If you really gave a sh!t about personal freedom, you would not care in any capacity the outcome of voting because it is a personal choice. Since you have posted comments in contrary to true personal choice; you are a hipocrit. FOYFPOS

Now, here is my real opinion/s, since you care. I hate it that hese everyday life issues have to make it on the political ballot. In my view death strikes everybody, evenly, across the board. I agree that death should be quick and with dignity but that is selfish because I dont want to see the suffering and I dont want my family members to experience any pain. That is a me thing. I am a hunter and I hate it when my prey suffers, so I make every effort to end it quickly. Thats a me thing. I dont care if this passes but I want to be sure that there are no loopholes to get abused by anyone involved.

We all fvck the same and we die the same, please keep it off the ballot.
