Physicians assisted suicide PLN

One of the topics was Physicians assisted suicide. I chose to write about this because the topic made me consider what I believe. The presentation was about whether it should be allowed or not. Some reasons that the presenter said it was a good idea was because it is morally accepted, if can end the misery of suffering, and you can die with dignity. At first I was totally against it. After this presentation I was on the verge of changing my mind because of the pictures and the idea it will end suffering. Despite this, I still believe that it is very wrong because no matter what circumstance, killing is wrong and no matter what, it should never be allowed even if the other person wants you to kill them. Think about this, if your friend asked you to kill them because they were very sick, would you have the will to do it? Even if you did, would you be glad of fell good about yourself afterwords? NO. and if you did there is something wrong with you. Even though there are some reasons why a physician may do this, it is wrong and should be illegal everywhere.
