    You are missing the willingness to participate. One wants to die, the other does not. It’s the same difference between a boxing match, and beating someone up.

      I am not, it’s not relevant. The inmate is going to be murdered by the state, that is a fact. The only choice here is method. How is using a method that has been chosen for suicide cruel?

      Again, not condoning the death penalty, just don’t see how the change of context for the method changes its nature.

      If you actually read the fucking article you would see that it is NOT about the willingness to participate at all.
