Killing the disabled
|
Quote:The case of a mother who petitioned a United Kingdom judge to allow her to kill her 12-year-old daughter by depriving her of hydration and nutrition is raising international concerns from disability advocates and others around the world. The only thing I see wrong here is this: " by depriving her of hydration and nutrition" We wouldn't do that to a dog. I've participated in canine euthanasia and it is over in a moment. The dog goes to sleep. Period. Once the decision is made we should do as much for the disabled as we do for a dog instead of making them die of thirst for some fucked up reason. Obviously, the shitstain who wrote the article thinks that such suffering is a great fucking idea. Assholes. Every last one of these xtian bastards is an asshole.

This. If you're going to euthanize the disabled do it quickly, don't starve them or let them suffer a slow death like that. To me it goes against a doctor's Hippocratic oath to do it this way. And we have to be very clear on the lines for which we define "disabled". Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
That's probably why having a court review is not such a bad thing.
I don't like the idea of killing someone simply because they're disabled, in the absence of a terminal condition.
