    Paul Kelly’s opinion piece “Legalise euthanasia, and compassionate society dies too” (October 1st 2016) is about his view of how it should not be legalised. This piece argues all the problems that will follow if euthanasia is legalised using statistics, rhetorical questions, emotive language, expert advice, repetition and anecdotes. The use of rhetorical questions really enquires if the government had taken everything into consideration and looked at all the factors before making the final decision

The question of assisted suicide being “mercy killing” has been a debatable topic for a while but there is no question that it is murder. There have been countless examples of loved ones killing loved ones because they are doing it out of “mercy”.

    Jack Kevorkian, or Doctor Death, was notoriously known for facilitating a suicide machine to patients who sought to end their lives but were not able to do so without assistance. In 1968 Kevorkian wrote, “‘It’s time for a society obsessed with planned birth to consider diverting some of its attention and energy from an overriding concern with longevity of life at all costs, to the snowballing need for a rational stance on planned death’” (Kevorkian, 2011, p. 1). He was careful not to practice active

    In many contexts, killing and letting die can seem like a simple distinction. But, when used in the context of euthanasia, the distinction can seem a bit more complicated. Active euthanasia is normally known as “killing,” while passive euthanasia can be known as “letting die.” If a doctor injects a patient with a fatal dose of morphine to relieve the patient of suffering, the doctor has actively euthanized, or killed the patient. If a doctor withholds some sort of life-saving procedure, and the patient
