Qin Hui was a grand chancellor of the Song dynasty. He supported peace with the Jin dynasty. General Yue Fei was arrested on charges of treason and executed. Qin Hui died of natural causes while still in office.

In later years iron statues of him and his wife kneeling were placed outside Yue Fei’s tomb in Hangzhou. Visitors spit, slap, and hit them until today. The statues even had to be replaced on occasion.

Active euthanasia is when a doctor directly ends a patient’s life, like using a lethal injection. Passive euthanasia is when doctors stop treatment or life support, letting the person die naturally.

Passive euthanasia is legal in many countries. Active euthanasia is only legal in a few, like the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Canada, Spain, Portugal, Colombia, Ecuador, and New Zealand. Some U.S. states allow assisted dying, but not active euthanasia.

Many people find passive euthanasia more acceptable. Active euthanasia is more controversial. People worry about abuse or moral problems. Support often depends on whether a person is terminally ill or in unbearable suffering.

Willowbrook State School was a large institution in Staten Island, New York. It cared for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. The school became overcrowded and understaffed. Conditions were dirty and unsafe. People got sick from diseases like hepatitis. Researchers gave some residents hepatitis on purpose to study it. In 1972, journalist Geraldo Rivera showed the poor conditions on TV. Senator Robert F. Kennedy called it a "snake pit." Lawsuits forced the school to make changes. Willowbrook closed in 1987. Parts of the campus are now used by the College of Staten Island.

Be advised, this is not fun to watch, but it's recent history these people are still alive.
