Strait of Messina, looking at Sicily
We passed through the Strait of Messina just a few hours ago, but, alas, this time it was in the middle of the night. The view in this Wikimedia Commons public domain image looks from Reggio Calabria, on the Italian mainland, across to Sicily. The still-active volcano Mount Etna is plainly visible in the distance.

We in the United States haven’t quite reached such a highly progressed state.  Not yet.  But give us time!

 

I suspect that suicide is just another right — like abortion and same-sex marriage — that’s waiting to be discovered by a judge, implied between the lines of the shadow of the penumbra of the living Constitution.
