Media reporting of pro-life news

Landmark Ruling: Supreme Court Sanctions Assisted Suicide

The Carter decision: before and after Health care = caring for patients but never killing them AFTER: Health care includes killing patients

At risk: the sick, elderly, people with disabilities

“Physician-assisted dying” = ??? Assisted suicide only? Euthanasia also?

The Slippery Slope: The Abortion Analogy Abortion first legalized for “hard cases” Abortion on demand Assisted suicide / euthanasia legalized for “hard cases” Patient-killing on demand

The fuel that greases the slippery slope: “It’s my body, my choice.”

Holland and Belgium: Euthanasia imposed Similar “consent only” law to that proposed by Supreme Court Elderly persons with Alzheimer’s killed – no consent Newborn handicapped babies killed – no consent

Who among us may not one day be sick, elderly or have a disability? Is anyone safe? Who among us may not one day be sick, elderly or have a disability? Who among us may not have a life that is considered “no longer worth living”?
