Assisted suicide debate in United Kingdom: House of Lords on death with dignity.

In spite of their soul-destroying socialism, the Brits engage in a civil, constructive debate over an emotionally charged subject. So that’s how it’s done…

Last month, a spellbinding 10-hour debate to legalize physician-assisted dying took place in Britain’s House of Lords. Since Americans are unfamiliar with this legislative body, it bears mention that most peers in the upper house of Parliament have been appointed for life for their experience in public service or for their outstanding level of achievement in a given field. Accordingly, many of the bills introduced are not shackled by political constraints, as is the case in the U.S. Congress, but instead address urgent social issues that warrant and receive thoughtful consideration.
