When the assisted suicide lobby tells you that assisted death will be limited to terminally ill people who are mentally competent, they are only presenting the talking points that are designed to sell the legalization of assisted suicide.

AC Grayling, an author, philosopher and outspoken advocate of assisted suicide stated that:

“If as an act of compassion you wanted to help somebody escape suffering, then why only in the last six months of a terminal illness? Why not for somebody who simply cannot come to terms with being wheelchair bound let us say? Or who is clinically depressed and is never going to be independent of medications for the rest of their lives?”
