I know they would be in pain and until I was in that situation myself I probably wouldn't be able to say but I've gone for no simply because I don't think I could bring myself to do it.
I done this last year in R.E. Euthanasia I think &_&.. but, I hope I never have to come to the situation. If they had no chance of recovering, then I might.. but if they had even the slightest chance of a recovery, then no.
Oh, yeah I sorta forgot to mention. They were dying, and in alot of pain, with no hope of recovery.Quote:

I would if they asked, because i know they would be happy then and out of their misery and pain... (hope im never in the situation tho.)
Because you're putting your wants before your loved ones.Quote:

I couldn't bring myself to do it, it's your dearest closest friend, friends dont kill each other..
I agree with Mark. Euthanasia is a much debated topic but if they were in that much pain that they asked to die then I couldn't let them suffer.Quote:

I don't think I could bring myself to do it.

Aslong as the person takes it themselve, I don't think they should be force fed it.
It's a very tricky issue, since it is classed as murder in all..
Ohhhh Kkzzz i get it now :d
Correction - I think it should be made Legal.Quote:

Oh smiddy. You fool. I think it should be legal but I don't think I personally could still do it.Quote:

I'd do it, I mean yeah it'd be hard if it's a loved one, but it'd be harder to see them suffer.
I wouldn't.
I'd go to prison for a long time.
not that i don't care about the other person, its just I'd rather live my life to the fullest without prison.
Taking their life away would take half of mine.
No, watching them suffer is funnier.
I wouldn't have the heart to do so. If they're really suffering bad, then I'd get someone else to do it. I could never kill someone I loved.
Same i agree tho there is a chance you will go to prison if u did but lets hope none of us get into this problemQuote:

If i knew, they were dying & suffering in so much pain, i don't think i could even bring myself to see them also, because it would be bad enough knowing & seeing them would make it worse.
But, i guess i would feel guilty for not doing anything also, because i could of helped them get out of all the suffering & misery they were in, but instead, i didn't & i let them suffer.
I don't know, it's a hard question.
