Assisted suicide

The topic that I have chosen to do is assisted suicide.  I am going to research through the library and the datebases.  I am going to take the side that this is a good thing and it should be allowed.  There are so many people who are in so much pain and they dont have a way out.  I do not think that it would be a bad thing for the world if the person said that they wanted to be given the drug.  It would be a pain free way to die and the person who is suffering would not have to worry about living their last few days in pain.  I also think that it is wrong to denie a person their own right to die.  We put animals to sleep to end their missery so why cant we do the same for a human.
