Jack Kevorkian, monster or messiah???

ASSISTED suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian, behind bars for the videotaped lethal injection of a man in 1998, says he expects to die in prison, but has few regrets.
In a telephone interview with The Daily Oakland Press of Pontiac published today, the 75-year-old retired pathologist said he does not see his work as a failure.
“There’s no doubt I expect to die in prison,” said Kevorkian. “All the big powers, they’ve silenced me. … So much for free speech and choice on this fundamental human right.”
Kevorkian is serving 10 to 25 years for second-degree murder in the 1998 videotaped poisoning of Thomas Youk, who had Lou Gehrig’s disease and was shown on CBS’s 60 Minutes receiving a lethal dose of potassium chloride.
Kevorkian said there has been no outcry over his imprisonment because his supporters were “frightened”.
“The American people are sheep. They’re comfortable, rich, working. It’s like the Romans, they’re happy with bread and their spectator sports,” he said. “The Super Bowl means more to them than any right.”
Kevorkian has said he assisted in at least 130 deaths, but has promised he will not assist in any more suicides if he is released from prison. He said in the interview that he stood by that promise.
