"Um, that's actually an argument in support of the validity of slippery slope logic. You're suggesting that percieved slippery slopes actually come to pass. Considering you're proposing the legalisation of a form of murder, I don't think you meant to do that."
Yeah. My point is that nobody listens to the slippery slope argument. Nobody really cares for it. Even though it can be very real.

"When I got a driving licence I gave the NHS the right to harvest my organs if I die. That's a much better option than hacking disabled people to bits I think."
Yeah, I'd probably do the same. I'm pretty much pro opt-out.

:
"Main reason being we're so close to being able to just reproduce any needed organ all willy nilly there'd be no need for organ harvesting."
Yeah, I think that'll happen, too.

It's exciting to think about, really! Even though I can guarantee humanity will fuck it up somewhere down the line.
