look. you can't stake everything on the idea of freedom and then oppose the right to die. or for that matter oppose the right to die . there is no freedom more fundamental: it rests on the claim that my life and my body are my own, my clearest, possessions. your interruption of that claim is an assertion of your ownership of my personhood: a deep, clear, straightforward tyranny. (meanwhile, simultaneously, you assert your own right to torture and execute.)
