Ignoring my points is also a thing I guess.

I didn't ignore a single point.

My point was the slippery slope euthanasia could run on. I agree with that post. The discourse was around where the gray area should be, and what kind of pain someone goes through. So basically it was all on personal opinion.

You've missed the point. It wasn't just about "the law" but where each of us placed the line in the gray area. Should it be expanded, or restricted? Thus, slippery slope.

Your argument had never once come close to suggesting that this isn't about the law that I read. But I could have missed something. Even still, your line and the law are at the same place, so my point stands on face value.

Okay, then by that logic I can reply a certain way too, correct?

Yes. My point is the hypocrisy of your view. Like I stated, you seem to believe "they could have responded like this, but since they didn't I will attack them instead of their argument."

Where they condescending or not?

I would have called it dismissive at worst, personally. But that is ultimately semantics. It still doesn't amount to a personal attack. If you fel part of a response had a condescending tone, that's fair. That still doesn't excuse going into a personal attack.

There were no facts in the article in the first place, which the discussion was based upon. Only after did more facts come into the topic. And again, the discussion was the slippery slope and gray area of suicide, which some users were disagreeing with my opinions on it.

Regardless of what was in the base article, you still came in without the facts to claim you were 100% against it. Again, this isn't disputable. Most everyone came in without the facts. You've already acknowledged that "100%" line was an exaggeration, so we don't need to rehash that. I accept that response, and understand it. You wanted to steer the discussion into a slippery slope argument, and again, that's fine. If you'd like to continue talking about slippery slopes, that's fine too.

And I say all this not as some grand arbiter. Just another person voicing their opinions. Which is all good.
