Lethal injections for incurable diseases, and for old people? That seems to be what people are talking about. OOPS, looks like you have advances stomach cancer. Have some poison for a merciful painless death, you welfare-dependant parasite!

Sadly, I tend to think that having the option of a painless death is a good thing. If I developed an incurable degenerative disease that would cause unimaginable pain and suffering and destroy my quality of life entirely until I eventually succumb, I'd want to end it on my terms. In a way, it's a kind of protest. Suck it, cancer! Can't kill me if I kill myself first!

The thing most conspiracists seems to be protesting ius the idea of *enforced* lethal injections, regardless oif pantient wishes or prognosis.
