Switzerland Unleashes ‘Death Pods,’ Allowing Citizens to End Their Lives at the Press of a Button!
By Ethan Montgomery
August 5, 2024

In a chilling display of disregard for the sanctity of life, Switzerland has introduced an ‘assisted suicide pod’, akin to a vending machine. This device allows individuals to end their lives at the mere ‘push of a button’. The portable death ‘pod’ has received approval from the Swiss government and is expected to claim its first victim this year.

Florian Willet, CEO of the pro-euthanasia organization The Last Resort, announced this disturbing development during a press conference. Willet confirmed that Switzerland will ‘soon’ begin euthanizing citizens using this macabre machine.

According to Willet, there are already people lined up, eagerly waiting their turn to die in the device. He chillingly described it as a ‘beautiful way’ to die.

The pod, ominously named Sarco (short for sarcophagus – the coffins ancient Egyptian pharaohs were buried in), was first unveiled in 2019 to efficiently euthanize people in Switzerland. However, it sparked significant controversy.

Philip Nitschke, Sarco’s founder who has earned the morbid nickname “Dr. Death”, explained how the pod works in an interview with the South China Morning Post.

Nitschke boasts that his pod can end the life of anyone who steps inside within minutes, at a simple ‘push of a button’. Once inside, individuals are asked to verify their identity and location to establish their mental state. They are then asked if they understand what happens when they press the button.

The process can be activated by gesture, voice control, or even the blink of an eye for those unable to communicate verbally or physically due to severe illness or mobility issues.

After answering these questions, a voice instructs them: ‘If you want to die press this button.’

The Swiss are the most evil people on the Earth.
"Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it’s entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." - Alan Simpson, Frontline Video Interview

British lawmakers' vote signals initial approval for assisted suicide legislation
OSV News
Nov 29, 2024

Britain's lawmakers voted Nov. 29 in Parliament to legalize assisted suicide for the terminal ill in England and Wales, despite opposition from Britain's Catholic bishops and other faith groups.

After five hours of impassioned and sometimes personal debate in the House of Commons, parliamentarians passed the measure 330 to 275, signaling their approval of the bill. The legislation will now face further scrutiny before a final vote.

English, Welsh and Scottish bishops urged opposition to the "Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill," put forward by Kim Leadbeater from the governing Labour Party, which would allow life-ending medical assistance for terminally ill adults over age 18 who are expected to live no more than six months. ...

Lord David Alton, a veteran Catholic campaigner, said the "deceptively named" bill lacked public support and had been criticized by top judges and medical professionals.

"When MPs last rejected such legislation, they were given almost two months to scrutinize it -- this time they've had less than two weeks," Alton, a human rights advocate, told OSV News prior to the vote.

"With many elderly people going into winter with their fuel allowances cut and palliative care services in crisis, the government's own health secretary has warned of a chilling scenario in which patients are pressured into ending their lives," he said. ...

Here's a quick rundown of everything you need to know about what the BBC's political editor Chris Mason has called a momentous day in Parliament:

    MPs voted in favour of a bill to legalise assisted dying in England and Wales - by 330 votes in favour to 275 against

    It was proposed by Labour backbencher Kim Leadbeater, who says she feels "a bit overwhelmed", but will now focus on making the bill the "best it can possibly be"
    Opponents, meanwhile, have told the BBC they are "appalled and completely shocked" it passed

    The vote followed hours of debate in the Commons - where MPs from across the House shared deeply personal stories about the proposed legislation
    It was a free vote, meaning parties did not tell their members which way to decide. Most of the major parties were split in their support for the bill - you can find out how your MP voted here

    Now it will face months of debate and scrutiny by MPs and peers - it's possible amendments could be made, or it could not become law at all
