Luxemburg Close to Legalizing Euthanasia

Even though the Dutch are close to legalizing infanticide and nearly 900 patients are killed each year who have not asked for euthanasia, even though assisted suicide is permitted for the depressed in the Netherlands—heedless of the moral cliff off of which they are hurtling their country—the Luxemburg Parliament has gone ahead and legalized euthanasia. No it won’t be restricted to the terminally ill. And of course, it assumes that regulations will prevent against abuse when it hasn’t anywhere else where assisted suicide and euthanasia have ever been tried.

But of course the media doesn’t get into any of that. Instead, Reuters makes the utterly false and ludicrous claim:

Just once, wouldn’t it be refreshing for media to report this issue accurately? I know, I know: That’s not the real purpose of journalism any more. Sometimes facts get in the way of the desired narrative.

UPDATE: It turns out—surprise, surprise—Reuters had the story wrong. The law has not passed. It has passed a first reading by one vote and still needs to pass a second reading before taking effect. Hopefully, anti-euthanasia forces will marshall their forces and stop this travesty.
