but all assisted suicide is murder
Care to elaborate? I'm for assisted suicide (along with medical marijuana and abortions, the Christians just love me). You can think of it like someone goes into a gun shop and buys a gun and kills themselves. Now, you have background checks but not for psychology. The person that sold the gun doesn't get arrested when someone kills themselves, they just provided a means, knowingly or unknowingly. There's a fantastic documentary on Kevorkian that was aired on HBO a while back. It's a person's choice. If you had a loved one that had a terrible quality of life would you rather see their brains sprayed across the wall, their limp body dangling from a staircase, throat or wrists cut or would you rather have them give legal consent to end their life in a peaceful sleep? This is America, you live your life how you want, why can't you choose how you die?
