How are you going to pull your own plug if the country you are in suddenly makes a law to prevent you from doing that?
Laws against suicide are notoriously difficult to enforce, for obvious reasons.
It already is illegal, and euthanasia while "tolerated" is also illegal to perform by a medical professional.
What are they going to do, arrest a corpse? Fine by me.
I'm not suicidal, but I have considered how nice it would be to diary in a date where I think "yep, i've had a titsful of life now, time to fuck off to sto'vo'kor" or whatever.
The only thing that stops me taking it seriously is the prospect that it may be subjecting others to criminal investigation or court process.
I've heard Switzerland is lovely this time of year
I think you need to die in battle if you want to go to Sto'Vo'Kor. Killing yourself would be without honor.
Good point. Might have to noise up the French on the border or something.
What are they gonna do about it? Kill me?
Lock you up with suicide watch. So essentially sleep deprivation by keeping the lights on and checking up on you every 15 minutes.
Are they gonna lock everybody up? How are they gonna know ahead of time?
A lot of places have those laws already. They aren't stopping anyone. What, someone suicidal is supposed to go "oh, guess that's not allowed" and regain their will to live?
