Delaware House Vote Could Legalize Euthanasia For "Intellectually Disabled" People
stream.org
The Delaware House is set to vote on a doctor-assisted suicide bill soon, which will allow “intellectually disabled” people to be euthanized.
The Assisted Suicide Bill
House Bill 160, or The Delaware End of Life Options Act, was introduced by Rep. Paul Baumbach, D-Newark. It passed through a legislative committee in June of last year. HB 160, with its Amendment 2, provides that terminally ill, intellectually disabled people may qualify for assisted suicide.
Wesley J. Smith from the National Review writes:
These are people who can’t legally enter contracts! They can’t control where they live! They can’t make their own medical decisions! They also can’t vote, pursuant to the Delaware Constitution!
Yet, if they have a terminal illness, they are going to be able to commit assisted suicide if a social worker — who may be ideologically predisposed in favor — confirms that they “understand” that they are receiving a poison prescription? It doesn’t even require approval of a guardian, as would corrective surgery or treatment to cure or palliate.
