The Land of Lincoln, and Home State of the Pope, Opts for Suicide

Today, as expected, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has signed assisted suicide into law.

To add insult to injury, he does so on a Catholic Marian feast day, Our Lady of Guadalupe, pretty universally recognized as one honoring unborn life: Mary appeared to a Mexican peasant pregnant. He also does so shortly after meeting with the Chicago-born pope, who, as you might suspect, is Catholic and opposed to the killing of patients by their doctors.
