In the United States, suicide is not illegal but may be associated with penalties for those who attempt it. Physician-assisted suicide is legal in the states of Oregon and Washington.

But something being "not right" or "unethical" (and again, I disagree with you on whether suicide is that), is completely different for a person to have an "obligation" not to do it.
I don't think being a drug addict is ethical, but why should it be their "obligation" not to do it.


A little off topic?

1-my post was a direct reply to your post. If anything, you were the first one to go off topic.
2-I don't think you were though, as discussing what is right, wrong, unethical, should be outlawed (etc.) is completely appropriate in a thread about euthanasia and suicide

That's why I literally don't know what to say. I think you're just trying to wind me up...

Suicide should be only accepted when you take your loved ones with you,no one should have to suffer for you wanting out.

I already explained why suicide is wrong; from freedoms come responsibilities. You have a responsibility to family and society, an obligation not to commit suicide.

If you decide to commit suicide, let me know so I may pray for you.

Although I completely understand how an argument about euthanasia is possible and could be interesting, I sincerely have no clue as to how suicide can be discussed in a "for/against" manner. It's just pointless. There is nothing anybody can do against the fact that people will take their own lives. I even feel it's a little misplaced to pass judgment about something we who have never committed suicide can never really understand. The only thing we can do is regret those we know who have done it ; feel sad that somebody should even think of it ; or, like Naples, regret what it costs to society (I personnally had never thought about that, as it seems completely absurd to me, and I wonder how much it would cost to constantly try to prevent suicidal people from killing themselves anyway).

Anyhow, euthanasia I'm in favour of.
