Yes, we don't have to eat a gun here in Oregon.
You can go to Georgia for that.

It seems that killings are just fine when suits YOUR purpose, only instead of enabling armed citizens to kill in the name of security, you enable doctors to kill in the name of convenience! Barbarian, hypocrite, and as an Oregonian ... ACCOMPLICE!

Ouch ! such name-calling

Call me when you, or someone close to you, is terminallly ill.
Oh wait, I probably won't be around then.

Take a few minutes to read our law (ORS 127.865 (2)).
You just might want to come to Oregon or Washington.
... and until, then as Reagan said, I won't hold your youth against you.

You old people are so funny!

Actually, my Spec. Ops. medical training included euthanasia. When operating in denied areas, situations can occur in which someone becomes mortally wounded; but, can neither be taken with the rest nor left behind without risking compromising the mission (that many other lives may depend on) if the mortally wounded lives long enough to be captured and interrogated.

You've probably heard the saying: "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." If you've forgotten what it means, that's OK, I won't hold your advanced years against you.

What's with all these diversions... abortions, assisted suicides, drownings ?

Dwellars are bright enough to know none of these have anything to do with guns killing people.
Abortions might be brought to zero
Assisted suicides might be brought to zero
Drownings might be brought to zero
... and guns would still be killing people just the same

If you know this is happening, what do you propose ?

A reasonable extension of your rhetoric would have been:

Abortions might be brought to zero
Assisted suicides might be brought to zero
Drownings might be brought to zero
Shootings might be brought to zero

Then you could have asked for proposals on how to accomplish it; but, you didn't. Instead you went off with language that irrationally attributes actions to man made objects that aren't capable of acting on their own.

Where others see analogies, you see diversions: that's because you're set on one course of action that you see as a panacea while others see it as a placebo. You can't get rid of all guns any more than you can get rid of everything people can drown in, that people can use to commit suicide; or, ways people can perform an abortion.

You exhibit the same kind of mindset that causes me to think of some people as gun fanatics, in your case an antigun fanatic. There's no real room for discussion with those in either group. You've convinced me that your question was rhetorical.
