Euthanasia is mercy killing. Mostly done by injecting a sleep drug and then an overdose of morphine to stop the heart. I think that in countries where euthanasia is forbidden sometimes the only recourse is a gunshot to the head. (Hopefully while asleep.) What's also sad is the drowning and suffocating of babies. Probably because abortion was forbidden too.
