  • If you knew anything about assisted suicide, you'd know that it has always been a "legal grey area" in Switzerland. Medication is much more regulated in Europe than in America to the point where you can't buy Cough syrup without multi-doctoral approval.

    Assisted suicide is legal by non-enforcement in Switzerland if you can consent and commence the suicide by yourself. In the traditional case this has been via Barbiturate self-intake. In theory, giving someone barbiturates for the purpose of facilitating suicide may be a crime, but it has never been enforced. By criminalizing NOx-assisted suicide, your are effectively criminalizing any chemical assisted suicide.



  • Guys it reminds of me of an episode in old-person future cartoon so it must be bad.

    Note how every criticism of this is purely on aesthetic grounds. The American who used it was in pain and a had a lethal diagnosis.

    The grounds of this arrest is extremely problematic and could set a precedent effectively making assisted suicide illegal. If buying NOx violates dangerous chemical acts/laws, what is stopping any shithead conservative org from going after assisted suicide via barbiturates? Or opioids?
