The 4th Reich

Legislating from benches across AmeriKa today.

Could the judge be sued for murder? Civil charges?

[Nowhere Man]

The Rabbi is right. We in America are supposed to take the high, moral ground as we confront the evils of the world. Through the efforts of activist judges, loonie liberals and hyper-libertarians, we are letting evil loose through the land one demon at a time. How can we fight the terrorists and take the moral, high ground when we are becoming sick and demented ourselves. I don't like what I see and I fear for our future.

[Soul Seeker]

What comes to mind in the story of Terri Schiavo is the famous quotation of Pastor Martin Niemöller concerning moral failure in the face of the Nazis: "First they came for the Communists, but I was not a Communist, so I said nothing. Then they came for the Social Democrats, but I was not a Social Democrat, so I did nothing. Then came the trade unionists, but I was not a trade unionist. And then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew, so I did little. Then when they came for me, there was no one left to stand up for me." Terry Schiavo has no voice, so we must become her voice.

Indeed. Everyone contact not only our representatives but our family and our friends! We need America to understand what has happened, they clearly don't.

God, Christ, save this woman please.

Did you hear Hannity today? Terri tried to say, "I want to live!"

Why do the democrats want to kill her?

[SilentServiceCPOWife]

But honestly, which sane judge, in this case Pinellas Circuit Court Judge George Greer, would allow a man who is living with, and has children with, another woman, to make life-and-death decisions concerning his wife? This is a shocking affront to basic decency.

This has been my problem with Michael Schiavo from the start. How can he claim the rights of a husband when he doesn't accept the obligations of a husband? And why is he being allowed to do so by Judge Greer? He stopped being her husband when he first slept with another woman.

[annalex]

Thank you, Rabbi.

[goldstategop]

I agree. We're a country of uncouth barbarians. Terri Schiavo deserved better from all of us. Its an amazing sight to watch a judge issue an illegal and immoral order to murder a human being and no one arrests him! He flipped off Congress and we can do nothing! All I know is that is wrong and my regard for human life isn't based on considerations of personal convenience or the might of the state.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

[ClancyJ]

Totally agree.

There is something very foul going on here - makes one ashamed.

Why exactly does Michael retain the right of life or death over Terri when he has another wife and children?

Why is a judge willing to go to the length of ignoring supoenas in order to proceed with death to the young lady? Could it be - he fears the congressional committee and what it will find out?

Why is Terri in a hospice facility (owned I believe by the prime proponent of euthansia)?

Why are we killing people that are not brain dead. Brain dead means no mental activity? There is plenty of mental activity and movement in Terri.

Why can't our courts, our congress, our police stop murder? Are we all this subject to being killed at the whimi of others?

[exDemMom]

Judge Greer has been meticulous about constructing a scenario wherein Terri isn't human enough to be allowed to live, even going so far as to throw in a tidbit about her "not wanting to live like this" in the words of her husband.

To do this, he has ignored inconvenient evidence, testimony, and plain old common sense.

He is evil.

As long as there is vibrant life within the human body, it is not for us to say whether a person deserves to live or not, just because they're not as smart or talented as us. It really does say a lot about us, the way we care for those who can't care for themselves.

[Caipirabob]

Judicial tyranny must be stopped.

[Selkie]

Does anyone know why this FL. State Statute doesn't apply in this case ?
Florida Statutes
FS 765.309 forbids mercy killing, euthanasia and deliberate acts of omission.

[Dante3]

The authorities had no difficulty in taking Elian, and they sure dragged off the Ten Comandments and removed the judge who dared to display them. But no cares about a disabled woman who is being tortured to death.

[backhoe]

 

Think Terry's Fight does not affect, or apply, to you?

Think again.

Got a recessive gene? Old parent or spouse? Handicapped child?

At what point do they become "a useless Eater"-- like Terry?

All you geezers that moved to Florida for low taxes & mild weather? You're next...

Just as the Pope predicted, we have become a Cult of Death--

 With Schiavo Subpoenas, Congress Is Testing the Limits of Its Power -- Send in the Marshalls. Now.

[Bear_Slayer]

If the disabled do nothing more than teach the rest of us to become or to remain compassionate and tender to those in need, then we, at the least, owe it to our own selves to care for and defend them!

[MarMema]

Thank you for this post. I am waiting to see whether this country lives up to what I believe it is about.

Coincidentally I will be visiting a very beautiful and Christian country, albeit one with almost a third world lifestyle, in a few weeks. A new president is expected by many to make very great changes there in the next few years.

If they kill Terri, I will be looking seriously at those changes and strongly considering moving there.

More people should get out now, just as more should have in Germany.

My husband and I Have disabled children. They don't need to stay here and be euthanized.

[expatguy]

Furthermore, Judge Greer accepted the opinion of doctors who said Ms. Schiavo, 41, is in a "persistent vegetative state," the definition of which, according to the New York Times, is "damage to her cerebral cortex [that] has made her incapable of emotion, memory or thought."

So What??!!

Is that a reason to starve this woman to death?!!!

[Saundra Duffy]

How the United States could today devalue the life of the infirm by removing a brain-damaged woman's feeding tube, and unwittingly ally itself with the euthanasia program of the history's foremost monster, should send shivers down the spine of every American.

It does send shivers down my spine! Go, Keyes!!

[my_pointy_head_is_sharp]

And even if Terri Schiavo expressly wanted to die, does that mean we should kill her? Dr. Kevorkian is sitting in prison for the rest of his life precisely because he killed people who wished to die. How is this different?

Good point!

[one protestant]

do we want to change the laws of this country on right to life decisions, what if the family say wanted terri to go be with god, and the husband didn't ,would you call her parents murderers,and killers of michael schaivo's wife??
