Bellringer 1/11/16 Morrie expresses a strong desire to be allowed the right to choose his own death. A current debate in this country is whether to allow people who have an incurable and terminal illness to choose how and when to die. States like Oregon have laws that allow Physician Assisted Suicide, where a doctor comes and administers drugs that will put you to sleep before the disease you have kills you in a different and often more painful way. Some people think this is humane, while others believe that this is murder. In a paragraph, make the argument about whether or not physician assisted suicide should be legal in all states for people who are terminally ill or if this should be considered murder.
