Now is the time to begin organizing (No one should profit from Terri Schaivo's death)
25 March 2005 | Captain Rhino

There have been postings here on Free Republic describing how much money Michael Schaivo will make from Terri Schaivo's death. The money would come from book deals, made for television movies, speaking fees, etc. I expect that his lawyer, Geroge Felos, will also be looking to continue "cashing-in" on Terri. And there are certain to be others.

While I can only speak for myself, I intend to protest against Terri Schaivo's treatment and death by boycotting the products and services of any and all commercial or public organizations that are making payments to Mr. Shaivo, Mr. Felos, or any one else seeking to profit from her agony and death. I intend not buy these products and services and to tell their producers loudly and clearly WHY I am boycotting and intend to continue boycotting their products. Each person should examine their conscience and adjust their own purchases of goods and services as seems best in their judgment.

I understand that there is a recall petition circulating in Florida concerning Circuit Court Justice Greer. I wish I were able to sign it and then vote against the justice. Obviously, successfully recalling the justice would send a strong message of displeasure on this issue to other members of the judiciary. I wonder how high up the Florida court structure that judges are elected to office? Appeals Court? State Supreme Court?

Anyway, this is how I intend to begin responding to this unfortunate situation. Can you Freepers think of other ways of effectively showing displeasure at Terri's treatment and impending death??

Thanks for reading my post.

What you propose seems unlikely to happen. However, he will become increasingly unpopular when your boycott of his supporters begins costing them customers and money.

Yeah, MSM is currrently working overtime to reassure the public that Terri is dying a painfree, peaceful death.

And you can bet that the movie script writers will cleave to the same line. Michael's behavior will not be critically examined and the parents will definitely be portrayed as religious extremists along with anyone else who took their part. This cannot be prevented. But individually, we can decide not to support them with our wallets or let them imagine that the issue will go away once she has died.

We should be able to plaster the walls of his house on the inside with full length mirrors. That way he'll have to see what an evil wife-murderer looks like every time he opens his eyes.
