Once euthanasia is legalized, it's easy to wreck people mentally, to drive people to want assisted-suicide/euthanasia.<br /><br />It happens all the time. Somebody who is targetted by derogatory reports rings the bell. It's turned-off and ignored. Patients get fed-up of it, and go machine-gun with their bell, every time it is turned-off.<br /><br />A worker stomps into the room, yelling at patients to stop ringing the bell, and give them time to get to the room. By the time somebody stomps into the room, they might be telling the truth, that they did not ignore the bell.<br /><br />Somebody might answer a bell, and refuse to do what a resident or patient needs help with. If all the workers (nurses or assistants) refuse to answer the request, the next thing which happens is, the person blows a fuse--usually me.<br /><br />Then the workers chalk-up a report, that they are victims of abuse.<br /><br />Through the past few years I was recovering from what happened to me in 2006, I've read several reports where residents in nursing-homes were raped by staffers.<br /><br />So, what I'm getting at is, that the non-solicited kills are pretty shocking. Imagine all the other events which they endure before their kills.<br /><br />So, with the malfunctioning cognitive-process of the Separatists, rejecting people who can't communicate in French, legalizing their kills will start their party.<br />Ironsideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859574716267489609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216787076261944467.post-12260422176264598342013-01-22T12:11:57.805-05:002013-01-22T12:11:57.805-05:00Dr. Emil's article highlights the most crucial...Dr. Emil's article highlights the most crucial issues in the debate. It is noteworthy that Quebec defines assisted suicide as " a health care solution for the terminally ill" and that “This approach abandons the debate over the legalization of euthanasia to situate it in terms of appropriate end-of-life care,” (Globe and Mail, May 22, 2012). In seems they place it in the domain of medicine, above and apart from the social world, removed from public opposition and Canadian criminal law. People don't seem to realize how subtly and easily this realignment of power can turn against them. <br />For example, I recently signed a consent form while under sedation on a gurney! I don't know what I signed. Medical ethics and public safety are not guaranteed by paper thin 'safeguards'.Madellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10429830888678597468noreply@blogger.com
