my own personal feelings are once i stop being a productive member of society with dementia or any other degenerate illness then finish me off no problem .I watched my Grandad die over 5yrs with parkinsons disease there's no way my kids are watching me go through that or similar

then make arrangements to do so its not hard
BUT any law that legalises this will lead to mass ( i am not joking on that ) culling of the ill disabled and old
once the precedent is set even with safe gaurds such as for example the so called safe guards put in for abortion of 2 dr's agreeing the womans life would be in danger etc they will slowly slip as that has to now them wanting a nurse to authorize it and its basically abortion on demand with no thought of whether it is actually in their interest
