Pity its about the people who ARENT about to 'die peacefully in their sleep' Jan.

We've got the utterly ludicrous situation where if you treated your pet who was
in the same medical situation as those people who want a doctor to assist them 
to die like you 'christians' want it done, you will quite rightly get charged for it. 
Fine if its a human tho, no matter how bad they are, you cant possibly assist in
in any way legally. 

Its now perfectly fine for them to kill themselves while they are capable of doing
that, we eventually decided you 'christians' should be to get stuffed on that, but
if they cant do it themselves, they get to die rather unspeakably most of them.

Barking mad.

Pity those who are doing the dying should get to choose what they want 
to do Jan. And they do while ever they are physically capable too mostly. 
I'd far rather they get to do it effectively too rather than that only being
available to those who know how to find out how to do it effectively. Mad.

Basically you 'christians' are sticking your noses in other peoples business.
