    Yeah but I’m not so sure we should be allowing people to make that choice on a whim because they’re depressed or feeling down at the time. Humans are wildly impulsive sometimes.

      They’re not drive thru places. Typically you have to go thru counseling and thru evaluations to make sure it’s what you want. But right now people are just buying guns to blow their heads off and leaving their body for first responders or their family to find. People are always going to kill themselves, you might as well make it a clean and dignified end.

        People are always going to kill themselves, but programs like MAID make it more attractive to people that normally wouldn’t.
