Welcome Back Jack

Dr. Kervorkian served over 8 years in prison for relieving suffering. He helped those who couldn’t help themselves die with dignity. He did break the law and was willing to accept the consequences. He is unrepentant. Though Virgil thinks he’s a hero, he also believes in the rule of law. If it is going to be the government’s decision instead of the individual’s as to whether that individual may die, maybe we should have the death penalty for any who attempts or assists in an attempt to commit suicide. Maybe we should have the death penalty for everything. It would prevent a lot of suicides and abortions. Hang a few speeders from the yard arm, and we’ll have safer highways, and save a bunch on prisons.
