Anyone ignorant enough to compare humans with animals will always come to the wrong conclusions.

We are animals, runner. We're primates, and all primates are animals.

Toni Lavis,
Lemmings too.

Nope, they're rodents not primates.

It goes Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. Or at least it did when I learnt taxonomy. So for humans, it's:

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Primates
etc.

Whereas lemmings go:

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Rodentia
etc.

Whatever Toni... but what we are really talking about can be summed up in five words. You just don't kill people ! What Victoria has is extra judicial state sanctioned killing...that is after June 2019 ..and if the Andrews' government's takeaway box of poisons legislation hasn't been repealed. Just give me ONE reason why Australia wouldn't go down the same path as those countries who have legalised patient killing have...where after being drugged via your coffee against your will, you can be held down by your family while the doctor injects you with a lethal drug dose. Check this out with the local equivalent of our Medical Board if..at your own peril ...you refuse to believe this. Victoria's doctor prescribed assisted suicide hasn't even been implemented and there are cries it doesn't go far enough!
