Why would people be so selfish as to put the burden of their own death on someone else? If you want to die kill yourself. Suicide is illegal, but that is pointless because the only punishment to that is to keep them forcibly alive and if you can say you want to die I don't believe that should happen. If someone wants to die their friends and family should try to stop them plead with them try to get them help at least see one psychiatrist even if you don't have friends and family, but in the end it should be only their decision man up be directly responsible for your own death. If someone is too afraid to kill themselves there could be hope for them and that is too great of a burden to put anybody, to kill someone who might have lived a better life. If you are in favor of euthanasia could you do the deed? If not how can you put that responsibility on someone else? You should always side on the side of life choose you this day either life or death.

Now we come to the hardest part what if there is someone who is physically incapable of killing them self and is asking for death? As a last resort taking all the steps deemed necessary by friends family or government to dissuade them come up with a way for them to kill them self like holding a button for a specific amount of time say a minute or to with a real dramatic countdown to see if there absolutely certain and at one it will inject some kind of painless potent drug into their IV. The drug would be died black and it would slowly diffuse though the IV bag and travel slowly up the long tube giving them more time to back out as well as having a antidote ready or something else in case they back out a little late. If they can't even hold a button use some kind of eye tracking technology.

Of course we can't for see every circumstance there might be exceptions and someone will have to deal with those as they come along, but general policy should always be to err on the side of life there should be no easy way out just in case you are wrong. If you don't believe that then what is there to stand for if it is not life and love?
