We send people to prison as punishment, we no longer string them up and torture them because it's inhumane. But I see being trapped in a painful body, unable to do anything of pleasure and waking every day to the eternal nightmare as the same as being in a prison on a rack or being broken on a wheel only to wake to the nightmare the next day, like Prometheus and the eagle.
If that's what people want to live with then fine, but if they want an end to the torture then I don't see it as ending a life. Their life was over already. It is a release from pain and suffering. I simply do not understand why we cannot have a law like Switzerland. We are not children to be lectured to by State conservatism, we have a right to choose.
