How is it a mental illness? Usually the people who go for euthanasia are those that are terminally ill and in a lot of pain or something. So given their choices are choose to die right away or live the rest of their short life in agony. I don't think choosing to avoid that suffering can be called a sign of mental illness. Besides, it shouldn't have anything to do with the government. It would be each persons choice to make by themselves. It would just mean people who were suffering could ask for help to end that suffering without the government punishing those people. |
Its an mental ilness, its not normal to wish death for any life form. These termanlly ill people with a lot of pain cant think normally like people who are under heavy drugs and alcohol. So its unfair to assume they really want death.
Still it could be abused, people could just kill someone and say he wanted it just because he looked a little bit of emo to the public. And the goverment could claim the same thing if they dont like someones opinion.
And so more its abused privatley you will see the goverment stepping in taking controll for who can life and who has to die like nazi germany did.

It really doesnt take much effort thinking ahead where it will be going.
