Corse it is. A damned sight more dignified than just letting nature take 
its course, particularly with the more obscene problems like not being 
able to breath properly or avoid shitting yourself/wetting yourself etc. 

Nothing wrong with choosing to skip that last period of a pretty obscene state of 'life'

Crap, in many cases its the sensible decision, just like it is with a pet/animal.

Says sweet fuck all about people who end their own lives for sensible reasons.

It would have been a lot more dignified if we had the sense to make it convent
to end your life with dignity. There are some disadvantages with say having 
cheap and effective pills that will kill you, say like many had available in the 
40s, and the injection route has got its problems when most people cant 
do it themselves, but it should be feasible to do a lot better than a rope.
