"angering some locals"

Locals get angry about everything. Shut up, locals!

I don't support killing anyone. I do support a person's right to choose how they live their life, especially in their final days, as long as it does not cause harm to others (which assisted suicide obviously does not).

It doesn't surprise me that in a place like New York, you're all in support of killing others.

Yeah, we are talking about murder. We love murder in NYC. Just going up to people and murdering them. I do it all the time! We're not talking about people with terminal illness choosing to end their own life. We are talking about just walking up to people and killing them, for no reason. I love it! Let's do it every day!

The Right To Die movement is almost entirely made up of people who want to put someone else to death, ie. they are family members and caregivers who want to kill off their relatives to cash in on the inheritance (or else to stop paying for health care). If these people are really in such a terrible state where they want to die, can it truly be said that they are cognizant enough to make that choice?

Another truth these people don't want you to know, is that many sick people do recover-- they recover from comas, strokes and heart attacks. Greedy families may want to kill their grandmothers and grandfathers off to cash in on their property and this group gives them moral cover to do just that.

It is truly disgusting and offensive.

The only people AGAINST right to die people are Christians. Not cause they care about people dying or not but because they want to feel self righteous indignation. The one thing about christianity above all others is smug superiority. Yes they are superhypocrites but as long as they truly believe then it's okay. same shit with abortion. People protest against abortion not cause they care for fetuses but because they want to be a better christian and want others to know they are better christians.

I'm a Christian that supports a person's right to die with dignity as long as it's their choice. When it comes to fetuses it's definitely not their choice, and I'm upset abt the wasted potential of a life that could have made a difference in the world - it's not b/c i need to add a notch to my imaginary holiness belt. Of course there are "Christians" who are motivated by ticking off a checklist of rules, and in doing so somehow think they qualify themselves to judge others, which according to scripture is actually quite un-Christ-like. For your own sake I would ask you not to file us all under that heading, b/c you could miss out on knowing some great people. For our sakes, I would ask you to keep speaking badly of us, because we get rewarded with extra blessings when that happens.

There is unfortunately an unbiblical tradition in many churches that suicide is an unforgiveable sin, however this doctrine has no basis in Scripture, and is merely a tradition which was probably started to discourage suicide. I'm not trying to promote suicide, just saying the belief that suicide is automatically punished with damnation is extremely damaging, especially to families who've lost a loved one that way.

Actually a lot of these people are physically unable to kill themselves. No joke. Have you seen the documentary of Jack_Kevorkian on HBO. A lot of people do live longer but not any better. They are being kept alive on machine and pills. No one really see it because they are in hospitals and in homes. In the old days,these people would be in your homes dying or living dead. They can't physically jump off a bridge and they can't obtain the medication needed to kill themselves. it has nothing to do with money since the state/govt pay for it since they are disabled and/or elderly.

I believe in the right to die simply because if a person of completely sound mind has made it absolutely clear that the pain caused by their terminal illness is simply unbearable, they have the right to end that pain. Billings, if you were dying of, say, prostate cancer (I would have said testicular cancer but it is my belief that you don't have balls in the first place) that had spread to your lungs and brain and you were in so much pain that you had to be doped up on strong pain-killers 24/7, your taste buds were killed from the chemo so you had no appetite, and you were literally wasting away in a hospital bed, wouldn't you appreciate the option to simply let yourself die painlessly?

In the words of Denethor from Lord of the Rings, "Better to die sooner than late, for die we must." In other words, you're going to die anyway, so you might as well save yourself the pain and die now instead of later.

The only thing that I don't like about this ad is that it has only elderly people. There are many young people hospitalized due to terminal diseases and paralyzing accidents.

I would like a RIGHT TO KILL ANIMAL ABUSERS billboard. Try to apply for a permit to carry

they probably shouldn't appear to be so happy either... like when i think terminally ill, i don't think of grandma frollicking about, making smoochy time w/her man. I think bedridden, covered in bandages, hooked up to machines. They're not appealing to the right crowd w/these images.

A reporter for CBS news called the Final Exit Network for comment but unfortunately no one was alive to take the call

Oh well that's kind of creepy on a billboard

300 people? Oh, are you not counting do not resuscitate & turning off assisted living machines? Because it would seem to me that those numbers would be a lot higher.

So what's the big deal here? I'd rather you do it at home then go jumping off bridges and buildings and ruining everyone else's days. Your body, your right.

Right To Die has a billboard, but what about Ought To Die?

People who oppose 'right to die' should solely have to pay for everyone else's Medicare

Agreed. Don't like that somebody else wants to die with dignity? Then don't bitch about doling our your tax dollars to keep them on life suppport.
