Losing Your Freedom Is Like Losing Your Hair

Fred Harrington*

In 1991, I was a young lawyer who attended a presentation sponsored by the Washington State Supreme Court. The featured speaker, a businessman named Fred Harrington, had recently been held hostage in Iraq by Saddam Hussein. Harrington said:

Losing your freedom is like losing your hair.  One day you look in the mirror and it’s gone.*

Today, we find ourselves in a quarantine. On the one hand , there are justifications, on the other hand, some things don't necessarily make sense. As an example, if children are rarely victims, why do we cover their play areas in yellow tape, to thereby work against their health, happiness and wellbeing?

Press Release: New Jersey Aid in Dying Act Unconstitutional

Margaret Dore, Esq.

Aid in Dying Means Euthanasia

TRENTON, NJ, UNITED STATES, January 10, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Attorney Margaret Dore, president of Choice is an Illusion, a non-profit corporation opposed to assisted suicide and euthanasia, has filed a friend of the court brief in Glassman v. Grewal, which seeks to overturn New Jersey's Medical Aid in Dying for the Terminally Ill Act.

"Aid in Dying" is a euphemism for euthanasia. Dore's brief argues that the Act is stacked against the individual, not limited to people near death and unconstitutional due to the way it was enacted.
