    You're just arguing out of an emotional position and trying to rationalize it. If a person wants to die, it's their right to be able to do so. That doesn't mean society should just say "fuck it" instead of providing proper mental care, however.

      "You're just arguing out of an emotional position"

      So where did they make an emotional argument?

      "It's their right to be able to do so"

      And here you are inventing positive rights!

      Where does this right to any action come from? If you are paraplegic do you have a right to walk? How would this right be granted? Do you have a right to psychically expel your kidneys (an apparently impossible task)?

      The fact that you are unable to perform an action does not entail that others must perform it for you.

        A cursory glance at your post history tells me more than enough to know I should just ignore you.
