U.S. Acts to Stop Assisted Suicides I figured that a discussion topic (other than Ghost's lack of love life) is in order to get things rolling again. Until reading this article, I had no idea that Oregon allowed assisted suicide. I personally am all for it. I want the right to die with dignity and on my own terms, should it come to that. A slow painful death that draws on the mental and financial resources of my family and friends is just not something I'm into. Discuss.
