Open Thread Friday: Youth-anasia

January 18th, 2013 10:21 AM

Dave Andrusko at National Right to Life analyzed the "serene and beautiful" suicide of twins in Belgium, or so suggested ABC News. This was the most chilling paragraph:

Euthanasia is currently “limited” to those over the age of 18. However “Just days after the twins were killed Belgium’s ruling Socialists tabled [introduced] a legal amendment which would allow the euthanasia of children and Alzheimer’s sufferers,” the Daily Mail reports. “The draft legislation calls for ‘the law to be extended to minors if they are capable of discernment or affected by an incurable illness or suffering that we cannot alleviate.’”

Comment on this or whatever else is worth discussing today.
