People attempting to commit suicide on their own can be dangerous to themselves and others. They are not guaranteed to perish, and may hurt others in the attempt. Those who make the attempt and fail may face legal prosecution. Every adult should be able to terminate their own existence in a safe, hygienic, and painless fashion, preferably with the assistance of a qualified physician. Our world is a place of unceasing horror, we should be able to free ourselves from it with some measure of dignity at our option.
