| Message | What does it reveal about a society when people are prepared to voluntarily end their life because they are old, lonely or ill? In an aging society the elderly and sick must not be made to feel like a burden. Euthanasia is a complex, emotional issue and to approve its practice we would have to be sure that sufficient safeguards were in place. This proposal does not satisfy this requirement.

| Message | This is not to end the lives of the elderly and sick, but of people who have a disease that makes their life painful, for instance. A severely bad case of Alzheimer's, if the patient wants to end their life and the doctor agrees there is no way to cure the disease, than who are we to say they are not allowed too die. |
| Date | 20:02:25, March 23, 2018 CET | From | Royalist Council on Classical Liberalism | To | Debating the The freedom to do euthanasia |
| Message | This allows greater personal freedom for someone who has a devastating illness or is it great pain and has no hope for recovery. We cannot restrict them from allowing themselves to alleviate their pain. |
