New Hampshire state Rep. Michael Cahill (D) once asked of his fellow lawmakers that if the budget isn’t going include people with disabilities, then why not euthanize them.
“Since we are refusing to raise revenues to fund needed programs, to fund services to disabled, for example, have you looked at euthanasia?” asked Cahill during a debate on the budget on Wednesday.
He was quickly called out by House Speaker Shawn Jasper, who stated that his comments were “inappropriate.”
Cahill later apologized for using a ‘poor choice of words.’
If you read the comments more carefully he is being sarcastic about the other lawmakers not wanting to fund programs for the disabled and thus the suggestion to euthanize them. This is because the other lawmakers are so against funding programs to help the disabled that they are essentially wanting to euthanize them. This media outlet obviously missed the subtleness of the man’s sarcasim as did many a poster here on this site.
If you read his comments more carefully you will see he is being sarcastic about the other lawmakers not wanting to fund programs for the disabled. Since the other lawmakers are not wanting to fund programs for the disabled then they are esentially wanting to euthanize them.
