Quote:For years, pro-life activists have argued against the slippery slope of euthanasia. Once mercy killings were normalized, it was argued, they would become more common and larger numbers of people would be killed. That argument would seem to be proven after 15 years of legal euthanasia in the Netherlands.

In 2002, the Netherlands legalized euthanasia for those with “unbearable suffering with no prospect of improvement,” according to the Telegraph. Since then, the country has expanded the right to die to more and more people including children and the mentally ill. According to a new report in Life News, euthanasia has even been approved for at least one “hopeless alcoholic.”
