Could you leave my (and HH's) ancestors out of this, please? Is it really so hard to see the difference between genocide and "killing" a braindead piece of flesh?

It's really simple: you have your opinion, and see mercy killings as evil; we have ours, and see it as humane. The courts seem to be on our side in this, and I would guess that that isn't because they *like* killing helpless people. Just because you don't know all the details, doesn't mean those details aren't there, nor that they're all fake/wrong.

I'm a bit vocal about this issue, because I saw the whole process from up close. It's really different when one of your loved ones is suffering on a daily basis. Because of this experience, I think that forcing people to experience that is less humane than putting an end to it.
