They aren’t strict at all and pretty much anyone that wants it can get it.

Absolutely disgusting and barbaric.

You think it's disgusting and barbaric to allow people to make their own decisions about their own life?

I, ah, disagree with you. I personally think people should be allowed to choose what they do with their own life. Personal Freedom and all that.

No, I think it’s awful that the state will kill people that are not terminally ill. These aren’t the “strict circumstances” you justified this with initially. Now it’s a “personal freedom” thing? And the state should assist in this? Killing someone’s who is sad isn’t a mercy killing like your mother had. It’s active promotion of suicide.

Ridiculous. And still disgusting and barbaric.

Give it a rest, the state is a not "killing" anyone.

"The State" allows people to choose to end their own life if they want to.
