Death machine switched on as dark spiral takes next step
The use of a new death machine overseas has highlighted how communities can spiral out of control when life is not protected.
‘The Sarco’ is a suicide capsule which reduces oxygen and pumps in nitrogen, suffocating the user to death in around 10 minutes.
The pod was recently used for the first time in Switzerland by a 64 year old U.S. woman suffering from an immune disease. It was developed by pro-euthanasia group, Exit International, which was founded in Australia in 1997.
For decades Switzerland has tolerated assisted suicide however euthanasia is still illegal.
This is the latest example that shows pro-death idealogues have no limits and will simply use countries which have legislation which sympathize with their cause. Police in Switzerland are now involved and we hope that this blatant attack on life will be immediately ceased.
But this highlights that the implementation of anti-life laws will only lead to further escalation of unimaginable things.
In New Zealand, the ACT Party is introducing a bill to loosen our euthanasia laws to include more vulnerable people. This, despite the same political party introducing the current law which only came into effect in late 2021. Apparently, there is a desperate need to allow more vulnerable people to die at the hands of our medical professionals.
We need to brace ourselves; how far will this go? Will the euthanasia law, which won the support of the majority of kiwis at the referendum, spiral further into darkness? When does it cross the threshold of being a ‘human right’?
With that said, will we start to see death machines in NZ? Are death machines and assisted suicide a ‘human right’ or do they cross that threshold?
It seems that if the ACT party or any other liberal, leftist, anti-life parliamentarians have anything to do with setting thresholds…we are on a slippery slope.
