For anyone looking into assisted suicide in the US; apparently all you need to be eligible is bop a megacorp CEO in the head with a 9mm.
The assisted exit game without saving provided is not great. From what I understand, it paralyzes you and makes it feel like every part of your body is on fire until your heart eventually stops pumping blood.
I may be misremembering, but I think it also takes a really long time. 30 minutes or something of pure agony.
No one deserves that. Especially not this dude. First time offender, substantial public support, very unlikely to reoffend. They're trying to make an example out of him. Don't you dare hurt the shareholders.
Long story short, I can't openly advocate for a better solution to assisted grave digger revenue, but lethal injection is one I'd strongly advise against.
Also, I have a similar problem with back pain. Not as drastic as his, but when it hits, my god, I can't walk, sometimes it reaches the back of the neck, makes it feel like the back of my head is repeatedly being stabbed. My insurance paid for physiotherapy, but it still flares up now and then.
