To think voting for assisted dying legalisation could be a huge mistake???

[MyLimeGuide]

In Scotland they are voting to legalise assisted dying. Looking likely to pass. I am worried this will come to England now. Kier is already proving he doesn't care about old and disabled people so this scares me.
Obviously there are 2 sides but how can people be so ignorant? If passed this could be one of the biggest opportunity for corrupt evil behaviour of saving money on the NHS, care, people literally getting away murder, playing god! No not good. It's so scary.

So if your against assisted dying then you should keep the animal alive. But there is a good reason many people make the decision to put the suffering animal out of its misery.

First you can you show me your study where doctors disagree.

Refuse treatment - You what? That's not an alternative is it. That almost certainly leads to an even more painful death.

Suicide - already covered

Anything else?

And a person with capacity who is begging for help is left to suffer. Why?

If they were given good palliative care which is rare, they may not be.

And palliative care can not ease all suffering.
People vomiting their own shit up?
You can offer terminal sedation, but who is that for? The patient, or the people around their bed?

Yes the fact its being debated and discussed with many doctors in favour of assisted dying. Its happening and for a reason.

You can absolutely choose that. Suicide has always been an option. What I'm saying is that you don't have the right to put me and my loved ones at risk so that you can have the exact death you want.

That's not evidence.

I put more value on a human life than on an animals.

And who will you and your loved ones be at risk from? Are you vulnerable? Are they vulnerable? Are you aware of predators and gold diggers in your close family?

No palliative care cannot ease all suffering and I didn't say it did. I said it was an option. Sedation is certainly an option.

Here's some information:

Please provide the evidence requested.

Refusing treatment would mean death is not prolonged. In some cases treatment can be very uncomfortable.

And yes, suicide is an option.

We never know what the future holds. Physical and emotional abuse can happen to anyone.

Ok in that case make the useless not so worthy animal suffer then.

I choose not to and if I had a choice I wouldnt have my loved ones suffer either.

Yeah but who from? Do you think your loved ones would turn against you when you are dying?

If it isn't a choice it isn't legal.

I don't understand the point you're trying to argue here. Are you incapable of seeing a situation from a perspective different to your own?

Yes it is. It's the doctors speaking up. They do disagree. Not all of course.

Why would you force suffering upon the thing you value more?

Bloody hell.

Some posters seem to lack any humanity and are not afraid to show it.

Who are you referring to?

We're talking about the assisted suicide bill.

I like animals, so I would (and have) put a dog to sleep to spare them suffering. I also know that many irresponsible owners put their dogs down for their own personal convenience. However, on the whole, I agree that it should be legal to put an animal to sleep even though it means other animals die unnecessarily.

I place much more value on a human life and so the cost of an innocent human dying unnecessarily is much much higher. I therefore don't think it should be legal to euthanise a a human if it means other humans will die unnecessarily.

I really don't understand why that's so difficult for you to understand. Humans and animals aren't treated the same (it's not legal to eat humans for starters) so I don't see the point in using them as a comparison or as a justification for our treatment of fellow humans.

To whoever is posting like this.

Why?

Who do you think I’m referring to?

Evidence would be for example, studies showing that good palliative care is not effective in the majority of cases.
