As far as the consensus of the majority of their constituents allows!
Nathaniel Phillips
Fair point
Why have many societies begun to place such a high value on emotions and being emotional?
Ryan Hernandez
I have not noticed that, perhaps an example?!
Henry Scott
read notes from the underground to understand why it wouldn't work
addiction isn't actually about the inability to stop unless you mean withdrawal, it's the complete lack of actual desire to do so
Henry Miller
The government should be the ones that are allowed to harm it's citizens for scientific advancements
Nathaniel Sanders
Have you heard of Dr. Kevorkian?

>read notes from the underground to understand why it wouldn't work
I don't understand but okay
Oh boy
Tyler Smith
Preferebly children from the lower class or orphans
Kevin Sullivan
I can feel you opening my cervix
Easton Baker
Weapon X?
Mason Russell
Why and how?
Zachary Campbell
Yes. Also the government should be allowed every resource on the planet for advancement in space travel and terraforming planets
Ayden Barnes
slow down there Future Boy
Gabriel Price
How doe's he relate to societies emotions?
Christopher Garcia
Fine, we won't waste Earth's beauty. Well do that for a planet in another system. You see mark, once we get the ability to travel to other solar systems we have a near infinite amount of resources we could harvest.
Landon Carter
>I don't understand but okay
it's a book, tl;dr freewill and volition will lead people to disobey even the most perfect governance because we're irrational and not a hivemind so prevention methods don't work
Tyler Parker
I think Dr. Doctor got a headache!
Jayden Ortiz
Jack Kevorkian inflamed a nationwide debate in the 1990s over a terminally ill patient's right to die. And he served eight years in prison for second-degree murder for administering the lethal injection rather than helping the patient do it himself.
>Assisted suicide
the suicide of a patient suffering from an incurable disease, effected by the taking of lethal drugs provided by a doctor for this purpose.
In the United States there are assisted dying laws restricted to terminally ill and mentally competent adults in Oregon, Montana, Washington, Vermont, Hawaii, California, Colorado and Washington D.C. Oregon was the first United States state to legalize assisted suicide, which was achieved through popular vote.
Now why do you think assisted suicide isn't legal in all other states?
If someone is terminally ill and they exhausted all other choices and their suffering why not let go assisted suicide route instead of dying a slow painful death
Sounds good but sounds good but how would you get all other nations to stop fighting?
How would you do it?
Sebastian Parker
>How would you do it?
i wouldn't, i like hurting myself anyway
Brandon Wright
Kill them all. What else do you think I'd say?
Nathan Parker
But suicide has been an issue since the Roman Empire, so its hardly a recent thing!
Plus it's more about religion than government though the line between has also been thin for the last two hundred years!
Luis Scott

So you want a dictatorship?
Landon Sanchez
For assisted suice, just drag the terminally ill person out back and put him down like you'd do to a dog
No, just destroying every other country on Earth but keeping your current government and killing everyone who disagrees with the destruction of every other country.
Jose Gomez
> suicide has been an issue since the Roman Empire
Specifically assisted suicide.
>Plus it's more about religion than government
Religion and other beliefs are fueled by emotions, right?
>For assisted suice, just drag the terminally ill person out back and put him down like you'd do to a dog
Ye
>No, just destroying every other country on Earth but keeping your current government and killing everyone who disagrees with the destruction of every other country.
How would other people view that?
Dylan Hughes
Don't care because they won't speak out against it
Jose Barnes
So you'll become tyrant?
Adrian Wood
No. People who don't complain can live as freely as they wish but people who hate it will be either forced to work on farms or killed
Zachary Flores
The government should not involved at all
Chase Peterson
My point was that it was not a recent thing, you originally asked why have many societies begun.
Begun denotes a recent thing!
Also I think when you say societies you mean America. But back to my point, emotions have always played a large role in human decision making.
Jordan Richardson
not be involved*
Joseph Robinson
Your id has onions, youre the hero we deserve, not need
Julian Lopez
t. tyrant
How would that work out in the end?
sorry if I'm all over the place it's like 4 in the morning over here.....
>Begun denotes a recent thing
ye
>Also I think when you say societies you mean America
yes
>But back to my point, emotions have always played a large role in human decision making.
Then should we remove emotions and think logically when it comes to laws?
Mason Clark
...how the hell did onions turn into onions?
Joseph Gonzalez
Newfag

Not anymore, only a newfag once...till the next public slip up
Samuel Lewis
That's ok! It's almost my bed time too!
I should have gotten off the internet 20 minutes ago!
Bentley Reed
Unbased and bluepilled. Stop drinking /s/oy
What's wrong with that. It wouldnt be bad for you if you didn't complain about my tyrannical rule
Nolan Baker
Twin 9s will help me sleep!
Owen Thompson
....ah shucks...
Christian Rodriguez
Nice nines and go to bed
I don't like the idea of ruling with an iron fist.

Ayden Brown
this unironically
Dominic Brown
Why not. I won't be a bad tyrant. Tyrant is a bad word, let's use monarch instead
Anthony King
t. tyrant
Carter Lopez
How is he a tyrant. He didn't agree with my worse points. Probably just that one point he replied to me with.
Adrian Gutierrez
Sorry It was for you
Brayden Thompson
How much Freedom would people have under your "monarchy"?
Benjamin Baker
Free speech, you can still keep your guns, you still have a right to protest, you have the right to do anything as long as it's within the law.
Logan Moore
Then explain this
Nolan Jenkins
Yeah, being forced to work on a farm or mine is better than prison. Complain was the wrong word. I meant riot about me destroying every other nation
Hudson Long
So what's your kingdom called?
Dylan Fisher
Kingdom of DenMark
Adrian Jackson
brilliant
Luis Lopez
This how it will look in the beginning
Eli Turner
Yeah, it looks beautiful.
Leo Gutierrez
How many of them were innocent lives?
Thomas Cruz

Dylan Mitchell
t. tyrant
Christopher Rivera

Gabriel Ortiz
HOW DO YOU KNOW?!?

Sebastian Brooks
The solution is obviously public masturbation.
Easton Myers
How do you know they wouldn't?
Hunter Gray
Isn't that legal in some European country?
I doubt kids will overthrow you.
Eli Parker
Kids?
Landon Kelly
you didn't nuke the whole planet
Jason Garcia
*You did
Connor Russell
I was more worried about spiders and wasps
Christian Clark
So you nuke the whole earth because of bugs and in the crossfire innocent lives were lost.
Lincoln Cooper
Yeah, seems like a legitimate reason for me.
Angel Murphy
Inform them about possible sources of harm so they can decide properly for themselves
Charles Kelly
>Yeah, seems like a legitimate reason for me
This guy gets it
William Long
They should actively kill you off
