" - obamacare intends to address the old folks by offering drugs to check out early"

Bullshit.

You have nothing.

Enough.

Ignore.

I'm for anyone who is an adult checking out whenever they want.

Young people are a little different. They are prone to irrational episodes- the product of their brain development. Anyone who leaves a gun where a young person can find it to use in a suicide should be prosecuted for murder, imo.

I find strict constructionists who aren't really strict constructionists about everything very amusing in a "OOH look at the giant hypocrite" sort of way. No need to construct a straw man about me finding any of the rest of it amusing. Unless you're just spoiling to twist what I said. And why bother? We disagree about plenty without manufacturing disagreements.

"I just find the strict constructionists arguing for high firepower to be really funny- probably one of the few funny things about the whole issue."

>>As for suicides - teens or old folks, it's a sad sad thing for anyone to reach that place - obamacare intends to address the old folks by offering drugs to check out early and in fact I sort of agree with it when they choose to end physical pain, mental pain - not so much.<<

That is simply not the case.
