[quote]A mother who killed her severely disabled son because of concerns over his "pedophillic tendencies" and his vow to take his own life did so out of her great love for him, a judge has said.
Kim Margaret Earle, 49, sobbed and shook as she was sentenced on Tuesday in the Brisbane Supreme Court, which heard she was of diminished responsibility when she killed her 18-year-old Brandon on the Gold Coast in 2013.
Justice Roslyn Atkinson said Brandon's interest in sadomasochism and child porn had reached the point where he wanted to kill himself following his arrest for child pornography offences and his mother couldn't see any way out[/quote]
Finally a win for euthanasia. Australia looks to be moving more conservative but at least a minor win for the libertarians.
We're also on track to legalising weed nation wide, definitely a nice break from all the recent bans and restrictions here.

2 RepliesThis was not a legitimate case of euthanasia. The 18-year old likely had a large degree of psychiatric instability. No sane court or Physician would support this case of euthanasia, and would instead insist treatment and have the patient committed as he would be identified with a threat to self.

3 RepliesI'm not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, he /is/ a pedophile. On the other hand, it is still murder regardless of the court decision.

That's pretty -blam!-ed up... but at least there's one less pedo abomination in this world.

One less pedo in the world and progress on euthanasia, win win win.

3 RepliesEdited by logan678910 65: 3/1/2017 5:45:03 AMKind of a waste of time if you ask me. He was going to kill himself anyways and it's not like his mother killing him was going to not get him sent to Hell because he didn't do it himself. Aussies need to learn to be patient.

That's so sad. I can only imagine being that -blam!-ed up, and then just imagine being the mother in that situation.

This sets an alarming precedent which is good in a way as it obligates legislation to form regarding euthanasia in a revised form.

12 RepliesAre you equating assisted suicide with conservatism?

1 ReplyLiterally what the -blam!- does this have to do with politics?
