Medical Murder Inc.™ Comes for the Children

But...experience shows that the slippery slope is very real. The leap from legalizing assisting somebody days from death to euthanizing people who are merely suicidal is not large, and several countries have already made the leap or are seriously considering it. Doctors are now euthanizing patients without permission, and there is essentially no system to check up on whether the legal "guardrails" are working, because nobody who supports medical murder wants to know how deep the abuse of the system goes. 

Once you embrace murder, a few more dead people here or there is no big deal. It's the same path that takes people from approving of abortion at 6 weeks to 9 months, as is now dogma with pro-abortion folks. There is hardly a Democrat who will definitively say that any infant in the womb, no matter how developed, should not be eligible for death. 

I mapped Assisted Suicide Inc., a well-funded global network of nonprofits.
🔹 96+ groups lobbying globally
🔹 "Dying with Dignity," "Right to Die," "Free Exit"
🔹 “Suicide pods” and “death doulas”
🔹 Assisted suicide is Canada's No. 5 cause of death

The push to legalize certain murders is strong, and knows no limits. What used to be the promise of an easier exit for terminal patients has led to a system that recommends death to disabled people, people with mental health challenges, people suffering from money troubles, and even...children with mental health issues. 

This shocks the conscience, of course, but it shouldn't shock your rational mind. After all, it is already dogma among liberals that children should be sterilized before puberty should they make a rash decision, and surgically mutilating children is good business. The leap from medical mutilation to promoting death is not as large as you think. 

New Canadian venture just dropped --

We are "re-animating" and EXPORTING human organs now.

...because this WILL NEVER be abused, right?

Poor, lonely or depressed people will NEVER be taken advantage of for their organs, right? pic.twitter.com/HrKXEzPPEi

Once you make the argument that even transitory "feelings" should dictate life-altering decisions for children, and once you argue that a mental health challenge is an excuse for murder, combining the two ideas is simple. 

Mike and Jennifer Schouten, are carrying the torch for Markus in a mission to block efforts to allow "mature minors" the right to choose to die through assisted suicide. They now work alongside a global network of like-minded advocates, including disability rights groups, who argue the assisted-suicide industry targets vulnerable people who would benefit from assisted living services. Already, in Canada, the law is expected to expand to patients with severe psychiatric disorders, as early as 2027.

But they are up against a powerful, well-funded machine. A Fox Digital investigation reveals the Schoutens and other opponents of euthanasia face a multimillion-dollar global lobby that could be called Assisted Suicide Inc., a sprawling network changing laws worldwide, developing euthanasia services for funeral parlors, selling "suicide pods," promoting "suicide tourism" and even training "doulas for death."

"As we continue to expand the euthanasia regime, all the safeguards and windows have gone out the window," said Mike Schouten. "And it becomes open season for anyone to choose death, including children."

There are always extremists, of course, who will argue for the most insane ideas. But this movement is not fringe in the least. It is well-organized, well-funded, transnational in scope, and it is winning in legislatures. 

What began as a limited effort to provide adults with terminal illnesses the ability to end pain and suffering has now grown into an international industry. According to a database compiled by the Pearl Project, a nonprofit journalism initiative, at least 96 organizations worldwide are now part of this movement. 

The global lobby cloaks assisted suicide in the language of civil rights and human rights, using euphemisms in their names, such as "assisted dying," "medical assistance in dying," "dying with dignity," "choice," "end of life," "completed life," "final exit," "free exit" and the "right to die."

These groups have a presence on every continent, but are predominately found in the West, which also faces alarmingly low birth rates. There are 41 groups in Europe; 31 groups in North America, with 25 of them in the United States, four in Canada and two in Mexico; 13 in Oceania, with most in Australia and one in New Zealand; and only five in Asia, two in Africa, and three in South America.

While most of their work has focused on adults, with Robert Munsch, the Canadian author of the best-selling children’s book, "Love You Forever," the latest high-profile person to recently announce he was approved for assisted suicide after being diagnosed with dementia. "Hello, Doc — come kill me!" he joked, sharing the news.

The boundaries are shifting. Behind the push to extend these laws to children lies a legal Trojan horse: the "mature minor doctrine."

I first encountered this idea during my research on Canada's rapid movement toward universalizing "Medical Assistance in Dying," or MAiD. Canadian lawmakers have been pushing to expand eligibility for MAiD to people with mental health issues and so-called "mature minors," who would be able to get emancipated from parental control and request MAiD. The idea is that these children are mature enough to give informed consent, and therefore nobody should be able to stand in their way.

A "mature" young teen could choose to die, and the state will help them do so. 

This concept, first established in a 1967 Washington Supreme Court case, Smith v. Seibly, once allowed limited medical discretion for minors. But over decades, it has metastasized into a sweeping jurisdiction for granting children autonomy – and secrecy – over their medical decisions. Today, it lets minors make choices without parental involvement on gender pronouns, gender transitions, contraception and abortion. In 13 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, minors can even obtain abortions without parental knowledge.

It should surprise nobody that medical autonomy for children is pushed especially hard in matters of sex, sexuality, reproduction, and death. It is all part of the culture of death, which is tied intimately with the belief that life is worth living for the purpose of enjoying pleasures. "Autonomy" is almost always sexual autonomy, as long as children are not the result, and if somebody isn't enjoying themselves enough then it's time to chuck it all and die. 

Now, advocates are leveraging that same doctrine to argue that children should have the "medical autonomy" to choose death. The "National Youth Rights Association," a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Hyattsville, Md., uses the "mature minors" to die by physician-assisted suicide.

Euthanasia is already legal for adults in Australia, Belgium, Colombia, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain and 11 U.S. states. But three countries – the Netherlands, Belgium and Colombia – have gone further, allowing "mature minors" to die by physician-assisted suicide.

In February 2023, despite the pleas of Marcus and his parents, Canada’s Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying recommended extending the right to some youth, declaring that parents should be "consulted" but that the "will of a minor" with decision-making capacity "ultimately takes priority."

The same debate has now reached the United Kingdom, where a bill to allow adult euthanasia is moving through the British Parliament. Earlier this year, the British House of Commons narrowly voted 259 to 216 to bar physicians from discussing assisted suicide with youth, meaning nearly half of lawmakers supported discussing assisted suicide for youth.

It has been less than a decade since MAiD was legalized in Canada, and it took only 8 years to get from helping terminal patients to die to killing children, and mental health is the next frontier. How long until involuntary euthanasia is on the table? Especially given that MAiD patients are a great source of organs.

Imagine how enticing it is to harvest young, healthy donor organs from patients whose death occurs under controlled conditions. One can kill a patient in one room, remove the organs, and transplant them into somebody who wants them. 

🇨🇦 CANADA’S ASSISTED SUICIDE PROGRAM IS NOW AN ORGAN PIPELINE

Once it was for the terminally ill, now it includes people with depression, chronic pain and even those facing homelessness.

What a resource!

It's dystopian, of course, but here we are.
