Murder by Order of Judge George Greer Judge George Greer has ordered the murder of Terri Schiavo. Terri was brain damaged under mysterious circumstances a number of years ago. However, she is not in a coma. She's alive, awake, responsive – not in a persistent vegetative state - contrary to the claims of the judge. However, she is unable to feed herself, so the judge ordered the removal of her feeding tube, effectively condemning her to a painful death by dehydration. If you watch Terri Schiavo on video, you can see for yourself that she is responsive and not in a persistent vegetative state. Judge Greer is a probate judge and is obviously uninformed about biology, since he cannot recognize a living human being when he sees one. This decision sets up a dangerous precedent in which disabled people are simply discarded as not being worthy to live. Who's next - Alzheimer's patients, the mentally deficient, the politically unacceptable? Welcome to Nazi Germany!
There is a relevant story in the Bible, related by Jesus:
He said: "In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about men. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, 'Grant me justice against my adversary.' "For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, 'Even though I don't fear God or care about men, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually wear me out with her coming!'" (Luke 18:2-5)
What the judge has done is beyond reprehensible. It is outrageous, illegal, and immoral. We cannot afford to sit around and be complacent on this issue. Contact the judge and tell him what you think:
George W. Greer Rm. 484 315 Court Street Clearwater, FL 33756 (727) 464-3933
Just a reminder for all Florida Freepers. Do everything possible to defeat this man.
Q
Terri ping! At least there are a few more out there who understand how inept Greer is!
Thanks, Quaker for posting this!
If anyone would like to be on or off my Terri ping list, please let me know here or by FReepmail.
Thanks for posting this! Check out the site in my tagline. Link to petition to impeach Greer, sadly lacking in signatures. I think there is a feeling among many that pro-life is applicable only while in the womb.
Freepers are coming to Pinellas and Pasco to help Jan Govan's Campaign Committee. If you know anyone who is visiting here to help JAN GOVAN, please freepmail me for further details.
JAN GOVAN'S GOT SOME MOMENTUM but we're getting down to the wire. <P. Please help us locals one way or the other... Six more years of Greer means trust funds raided, lives lost. STOP IT NOW!!!!!
Thanks for posting the petition. I went there to sign it, but it turns out I already signed it long ago.
Thanks for the ping, OfF.
Of course, Greer has violated numerous judicial canons throughout his campaign. It was a risky scheme to turn his campaign over to political consultants. Judicial races here are VERY STRICT and do not resemble partisan races in the least. OOPS!
We can't talk about defeating Greer unless we talk about the MAN WHO STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE TO DO JUST THAT.
There's a Terri Dailies Thread for July-August, 2004. We have over 700 posts there. There is a lot information about JAN GOVAN on that thread including news articles and his response to the St. Pete Times dated August 13, 2004.
Fregards, FV
Why tell me? I didn't bring it up.
Judge Greer twice issued a court order for Michael Schiavo to cause the removal of Terri Schindler Schiavo's feeding tube.
Which is it? He never issued a court order for the murder of Terri Schiavo, or he twice issued a court order for Michael Schiavo to cause the removal of Terri Schindler Schiavo's feeding tube?
My husband recently had heart surgery. He was on various medications. If I had given him a lethal overdose of morphine, that would be murder. If I had gotten a judge to order a lethal overdose of morphine, that would still be murder. If I had removed any of the equipment that was keeping him alive, that would be murder. If a judge had ordered the removal of any of that equipment, that would still be murder. When a judge orders that steps be taken to end the life of an innocent person, the fact that he's a judge does not change the fact that it's murder. If Judge Greer ordered Michael Schiavo to cut Terri's head off, that would still be murder.
Bump for posts 12, 13 and 14
Oops. Make that post numbers 11, 13 and 14
