So we ban fast acting poisons, but allow slow acting poisons? What is the dividing line between illegal fast-acting poisons and legal slow-acting poisons? If you can crawl away before you die would that make it a legal slow-acting poison? Or would the poison have to do its work over a period of years to be judged a legal slow-acting poison? Would a single-dose-effective poison be illegal, but one that required repeated administration be legal? If the poison tasted good and was willingly consumed by the deceased would that make it a legal poison? If one could get the deceased to pay for the poison would that make it a legal poison? If it can be established that the deceased wanted to die, would that make it legal? What if the deceased did not know (or care) the poison was harmful, but the purveyor did? If the deceased knew the slow-acting multiply-administered poison would eventually lead to their demise would the deceased become the damned? Does the introduction of the concept of damnation make this a religious question? America wants to know! ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
