Euthanasea – is it right or wrong, or is there no right answer? The debate is sparked up again as 4 members of the “Final Exit Network” were arrested yesterday and accused of providing assisted suicide, ilegally, in the demise of John Celmer (58) in June 2008. The Georgia-based organization says it is providing an invaluable and humane service but it is strictly against the law to perform a euthanasea service. John Bankhead of Georgia Bureau of Investigations said that “The law is very clear, and they clearly violated it”.
If you want to join the Final Exit Network, it will set you back fifty dollars. The service is that hen you’re ready to die or so you think, the Final Exit Network will send some “exit guides” to take you through suicide using some helium tanks and a plastic hood – inventive, painless?
Interestingly, the Final Exit Network members are not very pleased with the term assisted suicide being used for their work, protesting that they do not aid suicides but rather support those who wish to make a quick & sneaky exit. Should they be allowed to do this?
