Should it be legal to euthanize individuals as occurred in the Nazi's T4 Euthanasia Program?

No. The Nazis exterminated people against their will. The Nazis did the choosing and chose who they thought shouldn't be allowed to live. Euthanasia as discussed today is the termination life as a humane act. The Nazis did not exterminate people for humane reasons.The word euthanasia in your question should be highlighted in quotation marks since Nazi killing was anything but humane.


What people are affected by euthanasia?

Who? the people who agrees to commit euthanasia or the people who learns about euthanasia of their dear ones, relatives or friends? For people who want to do euthanasia, here are the reasons: Euthanasia is assisted suicide. It is illegal and is not a common practice. I would imagine that those that do participate do it to end the suffering of a painful disease.

When did the Nazis begin their ''euthanasia program''?

What?! The Nazis did not begin any euthanasia program. They did medical experiments on living people, and tortured and murdered many others. But there was no euthanasia program.There's some misunderstanding here. (It doesn't look to me as if the questioner is using the word euthanasia as a synonym for the Holocaust). The Nazis did all of the above. There was a Nazi euthanasia programme in addition to the main Holocaust and the medical experiments. It was directed against certain categories of mentally and physically incurable "Aryans" and was in full swing from about October 1939- September 1941, when it was drastically cut back following protests (which were later joined by Roman Catholics). It was codenamed the T4 Programme (or Action) and some historians, such as Ian Kershaw, have suggested that the scaling back of this programme left expert killers available for the Holocaust.Clarification:The Nazis exterminated people against their will. The Nazis did the choosing and chose who they thought shouldn't be allowed to live. Euthanasia as discussed today is the termination life as a humane act.The word euthanasia in your question should be highlighted in quotation marks since Nazi killing was anything but humane. It was a systematic extermination of less than perfect human beings.Please see the links below for more information.

What year did euthanasia become illegal in Britain?

There are different forms of Euthanasia, each are differently punished by law in most countries. Involuntary Euthanasia is considered murder in every country, and is punished to the same degree as any other form of murder. Involuntary euthanasia means as the name implies, to end someones life against that person's wishes. Passive Euthanasia is what is encountered in most countries where some form of euthanasia is legal. Passive euthanasia means to end someone life (usually on that person's request, but sometimes on request of next of kin/family or a legal request/will when a person is not capable of requesting euthanasia) but without personally causing their death, examples of passive euthanasia are removing the feeding probe from a person who is in a persistent vegetative state or to prescribe lethal drugs to a person but not personally adminastering them. Active euthanasia means to personally help end someone's life (usually on that person's request, but sometimes on request of next of kin/family or a legal request/will when a person is not capable of requesting euthanasia) by personaly providing the means to do so, such as dispensing lethal drugs to a person. Active euthanasia and involuntary euthanasia are both illegal in the UK and have always been so, although there has been legislation proposed in the House of Lords in the early 1930's to legalise euthanasia but it never came through. Passive euthanasia is also illegal in the UK, however prescribing fatal drugs to treat pain even if the outcome will be death, is allowed by law if death was not the main intended reason for prescribing the drugs. This law was enacted in 1957.
