Is voting a right?

2018-11-23 18:58:02 UTC  

But life isn't a right.

2018-11-23 18:58:07 UTC  

The state isnt removeing that right, it is just giving amnesty to doctors who do it

2018-11-23 18:58:13 UTC  

But states may sanction others to take away life without due process? I'm deeply confused.

2018-11-23 18:58:19 UTC  

The Declaration of Independence has no legal standing

2018-11-23 18:58:28 UTC  

@Bookworm Exactly, you got it right now.

2018-11-23 18:58:29 UTC  

foundational document

2018-11-23 18:58:39 UTC  

No one is taking life away except the individual taking their own life

2018-11-23 18:58:54 UTC  

The doctor comes in with a pill, leaves,

2018-11-23 18:58:57 UTC  

"deprive"

2018-11-23 18:59:01 UTC  

you chose to take it or not

2018-11-23 18:59:08 UTC  

vs. assisting you to take your own life

2018-11-23 18:59:21 UTC  

Even Kavorkian's Machine required the person to press the button themselves

2018-11-23 19:00:09 UTC  

Btw cat, how old is your son?

2018-11-23 19:00:10 UTC  

Also, we turn off machines or withdraw tube feedings from people all the time because of their written and notarized wills or on the direction of their powers of attorney

2018-11-23 19:00:16 UTC  

My son in 17yo

2018-11-23 19:00:24 UTC  

Does he play any PC games?

2018-11-23 19:00:39 UTC  

Not really

2018-11-23 19:00:41 UTC  

RIP

2018-11-23 19:00:49 UTC  

I want more guys around my age to game with

2018-11-23 19:00:58 UTC  

Hey Doc, I've got this KILLER headache, got any pills for me?

2018-11-23 19:01:19 UTC  

I;'ll see about bringing him to Sakura Con

2018-11-23 19:01:37 UTC  

I will be 21 by then

2018-11-23 19:01:42 UTC  

That is gonna be fun

2018-11-23 19:01:50 UTC  

I have lots of ways to treat headaches, from a good meal to lidocaine injections in certain points of the face and neck.

2018-11-23 19:01:57 UTC  

Perfect, you can buy the booze for both of you guys then.

2018-11-23 19:02:12 UTC  

Not so sure how Cat would feel about that

2018-11-23 19:02:24 UTC  

It's not against federal law, so she'll be fine :D;;;

2018-11-23 19:02:25 UTC  

I think you'd find my son rejecting it

2018-11-23 19:02:39 UTC  

It's against state law

2018-11-23 19:02:51 UTC  

That is true too

2018-11-23 19:03:20 UTC  

Actually, isnt it okay if your parent permits it and it is in private?

2018-11-23 19:03:24 UTC  

Better doublecheck the wording on that. Most state laws are tricky about it.

2018-11-23 19:04:21 UTC  

Well that was my first time registering for sakura con didnt know I got a discount

2018-11-23 19:04:26 UTC  

Why do we even have federal laws against murder?

2018-11-23 19:04:35 UTC  

How is that a federal jurisdiction?

2018-11-23 19:05:38 UTC  

We apparently don't. Murder seems to be legal federally because it's not in the constitution.

2018-11-23 19:07:40 UTC  

We do.

2018-11-23 19:07:50 UTC  

Title 18 of the federal US Law Code.

2018-11-23 19:08:25 UTC  

because congress is granted the authority to create laws
