Current Events > Would someone be convicted for a true mercy kill?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just say someone got ran over by a truck and their lower half became separated from their body. Theres no way they will live for longer than a minute or two. Would a mercy kill at that point be classed as murder, even if you were a bystander and not the truck driver?

Why would you mercy kill someone like that? The only have minutes to live.
---

That would come under euthanasia laws for wherever you are.
---

Umm yeah you would definitely be convicted lol, and no it would not be considered euthanasia, where that is legal it is still super regulated and not done by some random person on the road
---

as if they would survive long enough for the ambulance to arrive

People do it to dying animals they pass all the the time. It's pointless pain.

they do if the dying victim is begging for them to end the pain

Can you post a picture of your MD?
---

do you think someone needs an md to know that the upper half of a person only has moments to live before they bleed out?
---

Please sir, surely you can show that you are a medical professional and are qualified and licensed to make this decision.

I wish someone would mercy kill me if I somehow got sick, by accident or stroke whatever that gives me brain damage so I can't communicate anymore. I'd be trapped in my body whatever.

honest question, don't take this the wrong way. have you ever posted a single, real post in any topic ever? everything i'ver ever seen you post has been blatant trolling, even if I give you the benefit of the doubt.

i was thinking for more extreme circumstances, where death is certain, but is a few minutes away

Sorry that I gave you the actual answer to your question I guess.

This is the same world where hospitals will strap you to a bed and make your life miserable for attempting suicide. Humans have very strange philosophies when it comes to death to say the least.
