Gutted for you buddy.... Jesus wept thats hard watching....

[Tigadee]

Shit, that's not living, is it?

[SMOKEU]

It would be considered cruel and inhumane to make an animal, such as a cat or dog suffer like that. Let the poor fella die in peace if that's what he really wants.

[willytheekid]

...poor bugger.

...His reaction was just heart breaking

It's a shame no judge has the balls to open the door for this.

Or is it Pandora's box?

as much as it pains me to say it, he may have a point.
While I think that people who can prove their sanity, and have legitimate reasons for wanting to have control over ending their own suffering, there are those unscrupulous motherfuckers out there who may find ways to pervert the law if it was okayed - although a few places currently allow it, and as far as I know, there havent been any issues thus far?

a topic bound to cause debate!

Bullshit.

Ed blindly believes in the sanctity of life regardless of circumstances.

He sees no further than that.

Edit: Although he's happy to allow a person to die for want of adequate medical treatment.

Who owns your body? The State? God? You?

Fundamentalists / conservatives amuse me no end....nanny state this nanny state that. Nek minit.....

I wondered whether Katman knew what Pandora's box was about. Trust him miss the point but then he's so prejudiced he can't see beyond his personal dislike of me. Silly really.

To make an observation about something is not to give personal opinion on same.

Agree with you Ed, maybe not for the same reasons as yourself, but strictly speaking the guy isn't dying. His quality of life is utterly deplorable, and I have no doubt that one way or another his life will come to an end peacefully in the near future...and someone will end up in court as a result...

Don't worry Ed, I'm well aware that is has nothing to do with a hairy minge.
