If she did, in fact, have any sort of these capacities, I'd probably agree with you and feel that she should be administered something to allow her to die in peace.
As an aside, South Park tonight was so sick - I've never laughed so hard in my LIFE as at the request to not be put on national TV. Absolutely brilliant.

originally posted by HoneychileI'm fully aware that my stance is not a popular one, but as has been stated before, a dog would not be permitted to die in this fashion under medical care. Take her tubes out, let her have water or whatever, and if she aspirates, so be it - but it would be a more natural death than this cruel and unusual one. This is worse than anything that has ever been done to a any death row inmate in this country!
