Perhaps this isn't new news to this community and probably has already been known but it seems like prolifers just couldn't get any lower, and they did.
See the article in the link below:
Instead of trying to solve the underlying causes for why people want to CTB, much less improve living conditions and address societal issues, they just continue to ignore the cause and only focus on preventing people from wanting to exit this hellish existence. Furthermore, they aren't respecting people who wish to die rationally their choice (no surprise of course). The problem is these prolifers always view CTB'ing as a disease and illness that must be treated, managed, and cured. It's quite glib, disrespectful, and ignorant. Not to mention the additional gross violation of another person's privacy and anonymity. Those who wish to go on their own terms will certainly not be calling them and if pro-lifers think that making a number more accessible (and more invasive to another's privacy) will help, then they are beyond delusional!
I don't know the logic, but I would hazard to guess to guess that in pro-lifers' minds they believe it's a win-win situation for them, if one changes one's own mind and doesn't CTB then it's a miracle, but if the person still CTBs then pro-lifers still feel like they prolonged suffering for the individual and pats themselves on the back for a job well done.
Oh and last but not least, the journalist couldn't help but the nonchalantly blend in the obligatory disgusting number into the article.
Until society and the government starts to treat suicidal ideation and the right to die as a legitimate, rational decision, people who desperately want to exit suffering will either continue to suffer in silence, resort to gruesome means (potentially causing collateral damage to even unwilling participants), or even become villains themselves.
