MA needs to get their shit together on assisted suicide. Death with dignity should be a basic human right.

I don't care about dignity, I just don't want to die like my dad did. He had ALS and it was a very slow degeneration that seemed very painful.

And, helping him relieve his suffering with a comfortable death is dignified.
