Glenn Beck, among others, has been reporting on Virginia Ironside’s recent comments about smothering suffering children on the BBC:

Needless to say, the outrage is pretty widespread. I always figured a mom would want her kid CURED to end the suffering, not dead. Seems I’m not alone.

However, something else in the Guardian’s article about this controversy caught my eye:

Her latest comments were made as doctors prepared to lobby for a change in the law to allow people to help the terminally ill to die.

Well, a quick google search yielded this: “Doctors and nurses launch campaign for right to help terminally ill to end their lives”. Basically, a doctors’ group in the UK wants to legalize assisted suicide. Now, it could be argued that a person deserves the right to decide when to end their own life. I’m not denying that. I’m just a little scared as to what doors this will lead us to open next.
