We're All Gonna Die in Holland!

Nov 28, 2000 1:09pm CST tags: Wack News
Looks like my little country is making international headlines again. After tolerated drug use, legal prostituation our government has now decided they are going to legalize euthanasia. The Netherlands will be the first country in the world with a law for this. Some honor. All kinds of organizations are already making links to Nazi Germany.

``The same line of reasoning is being used as in Germany in 1935...In the Netherlands, your life is no longer safe,'' said Bert Dorenbos of the Scream for Life group.

Now if you will excuse me, I have some people to kill. Seriously though, the regulations are still pretty strict and it's not like a doctor can terminate anyone's life now. Just is stupid we have to get in the news over controversial things like this.
