In 1606‚ William Shakespeare wrote and presented a dark‚ psychologically charged story about the evil nature of a man at odds with his conscience in the play Macbeth. Four hundred years later the movie "Scotland‚ PA" takes the play someplace it has never been: 1970’s white-trash America --- not always accurate‚ but clearly connected.

suicide (PAS) for the terminally ill. Euthanasia‚ otherwise known as mercy killing‚ is known to people an act of allowing a person to take the life of the person who wishes to die as long as it is voluntary.

I am arguing for the legalization of PAS because
