Took a trip to South Carolina, started to fill up and the guy looked at me like I just kicked his dog. Like .. I was the worst haha. And I realized how good we have it have it here in Mass .

Umm ok? Name calling would be me saying “You’re an idiot.” I didn’t.

You’re definitely making a slippery slope fallacy.

You’re claiming that, despite there being over 20 years of data related to the law being safely enacted and protected here in the US, that somehow we’re just going to backpedal and start expanding DwD to groups not covered under the current laws, even though you have zero evidence of that being discussed in any real or likely manner by anyone with the power to expand those laws. Your evidence so far is that in Canada (a different country) it’s being “pushed for” - pushed how? By who? How likely is it to happen? Is it on a ballot? And again, even if Canada decided to expand on it, we aren’t discussing Canadian policies. This is America, where these laws have been pretty strictly adhered to in the few states where it has been legalized.

Making the bizarre equivalent between this topic and gay/trans rights, which has literally nothing to do with this issue, is a totally illogical connection and does nothing for the supposed points you’re trying to hammer.

Wow. Asshole.

I definitely voted yes for death with dignity. There is a time in my life I will probably need it and I want it

Because of the amount of discrimination against people with disabilities who want to live. Legalized assisted suicide is full of ethical concerns for those of us who are disabled.

I’m really sorry to hear that. Yes, fuck cancer.

Chronic disease, no cure. Thanks.

I'm not name calling *Proceeds to say talking out of your ass* lol. You never addressed how this isn't a slippery slope. You don't want to have an actual conversation about this because it will lead to topics you don't wanna talk about. Clearly bringing up the gay marriage to trans kids pipeline was your third rail.

Talk to me when you actually want to have a conversation about this not PC nonsense for your Reddit upvotes.

Someone from Braintree visited Weymouth, the rest is history.

Ummm. We do. Because we have a legal duty to act. And without protections in the case of death (Massachusetts uses the MOLST form) we now either violate your desire to in peace and dignity or we risk our jobs. So, yeah. Tie up some important lose ends and most of us will be VERY behind this.

But there’s no dinner my mao-loving friend, just the need for a wheelbarrow full of cash if you need a place to live. Landlords are banned, what do you along with everyone else new to the area do - buy a place for a million or so each time you need to move and lose a cool hundred grand or so in selling and re-buying expenses each time you need to move elsewhere, or spend more on a couple days at a hotel than you would have spent on a month at an apartment owned by one of those rent-seeking parasites? Use that gray squishy stuff between your ears, it’s got to be at least somewhat functional with that fancy title of yours!

How many cars merged back into traffic from the 95N exit lane while you got this pic ready?

Prices are down 2-3 percent since last year, imho gonna get better.

My friend chose this. She lived in Oregon. She was suffering and had the choice to end her life on her terms. Fuck cancer. I miss her.

Medford is partially illegal I think. The Stop and Shop is half full and half self. I think they're not allowed to have full self serve. But there's a Sunoco on the Fellsway and a few Mobiles that are self so I'm not sure.

I didn’t call you any names. I said you’re talking out of your ass, which is a common phrase for someone throwing around a bunch of nonsense.

Not biting on fallacies =/= echo chamber.

It’s a shame that you’re afraid of something that has no evidence of occurring in this country after literal decades of data and which could help a great deal of your fellow humans who are needlessly suffering while terminal diseases ravage their bodies, while their families have to sit by and watch and while incurring unnecessary medical bills.

You probably wouldn't have to keep going back if it was better. /s

I'm glad they have helped you. It's not ALL bad. The doctors at least have an associates degree there.

If I recall correctly, the Weymouth mandate came about because of a gas station explosion in like the 40/50/60's due to user error.

You die. Fast. Hence this report.

Who cares about the after. If someone is suffering they should have the choice to end it.

Nope. For me (paramedic) the procedure was to be handled poorly. There was (and I’m trying to remember, because it’s been a while) no accommodations made for the people who are forced to manage the after. There was no connection to existing end-of-life orders. So when we responded to a residence for a well-being check there was nothing that prevented us from doing our jobs. I 100% support your right to die, but I’m not letting you die peacefully and without intervention just so your pissed off relatives can make my career a living hell.

Yeah can't properly respond just name call and have a fit. Enjoy your echo chamber.

>I don't want to deal with mao-worshipping deadbeats like you

My professional title is "Mixed-signal integrated circuit design consultant." Mao-worshipping deadbeat is just a hobby.

>Also my other question still stands - got a million for a condo? Or $300 per night for a hotel, perhaps?

You could at least offer to take me out for a nice dinner first, I'm kind of old-fashioned and like to get to know a person..

"some places" are full serve just about anywhere. The point of the post is that some local or state governments prohibit self-service.

I've only lived here a few years, haven't stopped in there yet, but it's got a line pretty often.
