Lawmakers in Britain voted on Friday to allow assisted dying for terminally ill patients in England and Wales under strict conditions, opening the way to one of the most profound social changes in the country in decades.

After five hours of debate in the House of Commons, they voted by 330 to 275 to support a plan that would allow doctors to help patients with less than six months to live to end their lives

Assisted dying is legal in a handful of European countries, Canada, New Zealand, and in 10 U. S. states California, Colorado, DC, Hawaii, Maine, Montana (authorized by court ruling), New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Vermont & Washington. Federal law in the United States does not provide a constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide. The U. S. Supreme Court ruled in 1997 that states have the authority to decide whether to legalize or criminalize physician-assisted suicide, as it is not protected under the Constitution's Due Process Clause. This decision allows individual states to establish their own laws regarding medical aid in dying, resulting in a patchwork of regulations across the country.

The decision in Westminster followed weeks of fraught, often emotional public debate in Britain on a complex ethical question that has transcended political affiliations and provoked sharp disagreement.

The bill that lawmakers approved on Friday would apply to a narrow group: Applicants would have to be over 18, diagnosed with a terminal illness and have been given six months or less to live. Two doctors and a judge would be required to approve a patient’s choice to end their life, and fatal drugs would have to be self-administered.

Training can be provided many ways, with professionals and those skilled to educate drivers and the public on their legal rights.

A) they know their rights and responsibilities to handle conflict with law enforcement. Training ensures they can respond in the best way, legally.

B) avoid social risks

By training people, we can have better sense of safety for both officers and the public.

I mention this specifically for "black" people because of the probability they are more at fear when dealing with police due to recent history.

As new administration comes in, promotes "law and order".. which means enforcement... probability of conflict and unfortunate outcomes... increasse. It only takes one incident to promote social chaos for the rest of us.

President Joe Biden, reversing an Obama era policy, has agreed to give Ukraine anti-personnel land mines, a move seen as an attempt to slow Russian troops who have been steadily advancing in Ukraine's east in recent months.

With much of the civilian population already evacuated, Ukraine argues that the tactical use of "non-persistent" mines poses minimal risk to civilians and is absolutely essential to stem Russia's advance.

The US "non-persistent" mines differ from Russia's as they become inert after a pre-set period of time. They are electrically fused and require battery power to detonate. Once the battery runs out, they will not detonate.

The Kremlin has vowed to retaliate for the US provision of missiles & now land mines. On Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin approved changes to Russia’s nuclear doctrine, setting out new conditions under which the country would consider using its arsenal. It now says an attack from a non-nuclear state, if backed by a nuclear power, will be treated as a joint assault on Russia.

Trump's immigration plans are to:

1) “carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history”.

2) Withdraw birthright citizenship, bar undocumented children from schools & forcibly separating children from their parents at the border.

3) To dismantle the asylum protection system

However, any attempt to use active-duty troops to do so would be subject to legal challenges, as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 limits the federal government’s use of the military to enforce domestic policy. Just the same, he need only to declare a "national emergency" to REQUEST states' National Guardsmen to use in ANY capacity.

Former acting ICE Director Ron Vitiello stated that the (DHS) has successfully called upon the Pentagon “many times” in the past to provide “transportation or construction as they have done before.” The military could also help ICE by conducting drone surveillance of removal targets and providing security & logistical support at migrant detention centers.

Local police are ADAMANTLY against being deputized or having to enforce federal immigration laws. They say that it will:

1. It undermines the trust and cooperation with immigrant communities. They will turn to gangs for protection exponentially making local policing more difficult.

2. Local agencies do not possess the adequate resources to enforce these laws

3. Immigration laws are very complex and the training required to understand them significantly detracts from the core mission of local police

4. Local police do not possess clear authority to enforce these laws. Even if given the authority, the federal government does not have the capacity to handle the volume of immigration violations that will occur.

5) The lack of clear authority increases the risk of civil liability for local police and government (qualified immunity).

6) Highly increases likelihood of violence against officers.
