We are brought into this world without our consent, and it is our life and if we do no want to continue to suffer for decades, we should have every right to a peaceful exit on our own terms. The fact that euthanasia and assisted suicide is outlawed in many countries is disgusting and cruel beyond imagination.
Some pro lifers argue that we are the bad people for "encouraging and accepting suicide", NO, we encourage free choice for people to escape their unbearable suffering and pain. It is infinitely more selfish to force people to be in unbearable agonizing pain for potentially decades than to allow them to choose to leave the world in a peaceful manner.
Banning euthanasia also leads to people performing riskier methods of suicide, which are sometimes illegal and can cause them to get jail time or risk injuring themselves due to complications and lack of proper research.
Ever since I signed up here, I have seen heartbreaking threads, people attempting to ctb by hanging (and failing), jumping in front of trains, trying to shoot themselves with a shotgun, drowning, dehydrating an starving, cutting their wrists, dying alone in forests, jumping off buildings and bridges, self immolating etc. Why should people who want to exit this world have to resort to such painful, risky ways?
