Agreed. I am a person who would want millions spent to save my life, but despite that I take further issue with all this: people who refuse treatment are forced into a hospice because they are not allowed to choose euthanasia.

You either suffer through a shit medical system, or have a needlessly painful/uncomfortable death.

Killing babies is OK and now so is euthanasia? But suicide is used as ammunition to remove access to guns?

I would not compare euthanasia and abortion.

Euthanasia is a choice you make governing your own life.

Abortion is a choice you make governing another being’s life.

As for suicide and guns - I’ve never heard this one before. There are plenty of options for suicide that don’t involve guns.

These arguments seem unrelated. Any combination of opinions of the availability of abortions, the availability of euthanasia, and the availability of guns is possible. I'm not entirely sure who you're trying to strawman here (I'd say a generic liberal, except the liberals I've heard argue against gun ownership are way more upset about mass shootings than suicides).

He's not really trying to strawman anyone, he's either a nut or a troll.
