Hello everyone, in this post I want to share a story about euthanasia that made me very sad.
This is the news (it is in Spanish):
https://www.elperiodico.com/es/soci...z-video-declaraciones-eutanasia-mujer-7392243
Basically it is the story of a woman with sclerosis, who no longer wanted to live because her illness had paralyzed her entire body (she could not speak, eat, move, or do anything herself). This woman asked the government on multiple occacions to let her die from euthanasia (in Spain it is not legalized). Seeing the government's refusal, her husband helped her die, basically gave her a deadly dose of some medication.
Her husband recorded a video where the woman can be seen taking the dose and giving her husband consent to help her die.
Once the authorities found out, they arrested the husband, yes, they arrested him for helping his wife fulfill her last will.
Right now, her husband (Angel Hernandez) is free, but with a lot of charges that could take him to jail, although I don't think that will happen, given that this case is having a lot of mediatic pressure.
What I want to express in this post is simple, how the hell can a government decide for the lives of others? We are not talking about a 14-year-old boy who wants to die because his girlfriend has left him, we are talking about a person who had been sick for more than 30 years. It personally disgusts me as a group of parasites that all they do is waste time in parliament, they can decide when one should die.
Anyway, I just wanted to let off steam a little, and forgive if there are spelling or grammar mistakes, English costs me a lot.
