In this episode, Commissioner Johnson discusses the expansion of medical killing via assisted suicide and euthanasia.

The Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton decisions of 1973 did not merely authorize human abortions but specifically directed that only physicians should be involved in these killings. That meant that the medical profession was changed from being a profession sworn only to help and care for and to comfort if they could not cure, but never to kill or in any way harm their patients.

With the adoption of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, the medical profession is dramatically altered and medical killing was legalized in the United States for the first time.

The expansion of medical Killing has continued and has now swept around the world as a standard form of medical practice. Brian is joined by Alex Schadenburg, Director of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition. Mr. Schadenburg is based in Canada. The Canadian government is now requiring that anyone involved in comfort care or other forms of pain management and palliative care also be involved directly in intentional medical killing.

This expansion of the euthanasia movement has also crept into California where assisted suicide has been legalized. However, a new bill, SB-380, would now require a conscientious doctor who does not believe the patient should be put down, to expedite the process nevertheless and deliver the patient to a killing physician. This removal of a conscience clause provision for physicians will mean that the profession is bound in its commitment to kill. The window for the terminal diagnosis will also be reduced to fifteen days in some circumstances.

SB-380 has not yet been heard, and all pro-life individuals in California are urged to contact their state senators and assembly members urging opposition.
