But in your insanity you think you did do it,
-
and so you say, "Shelly, please kill me."
-
And I know that you're insane, but hey, you know,
-
consent's consent, and so I kill you.
-
Well, that clearly isn't acceptable.
-
Or suppose you're playing with your three-year-old nephew.
-
He says, "Oh yeah,
-
I don't really like being alive. Kill me."
-
Well, that clearly doesn't make it acceptable to kill him or her--
-
well, nephew, it's a him.
-
So, if we start accepting this consent principle,
-
we're led to some pretty implausible conclusions.
