Hi. I hope I don't offend you and you sound like your heart is in the right place but I would suggest you do what you can legally. Planning to get thrown in jail IMO isn't going to help Terri or support what FR stands for.

I probably won't do anything that will get me arrested, but I somewhat disagree with you.

Me by myself getting arrested wouldn't make any difference. If, however, a few hundred of us did, it would be a "media event".

There's nothing wrong with that. That is called civil disobedience. There is a long tradition of that in the U.S., both among conservatives and liberals. A lot of very fine people have spent some time in the slammer. Some have been executed.

It is simply a way of getting attention.

In this case, the more attention, the better. There hasn't been enough given to this yet.

Frankly, what I would *like* to do -- but won't -- is something that would get me in a whole lot of trouble.

Do whatever you need to do short of breaking any laws that might hurt Terri's case.

If you are brave person who is ready to stand up to this tyranny...then I say pack your things and welcome to Florida.

But, if your like some lunatic that is going to do some horrible thing that might hurt Terri's public opinion...Then I say..Please be angry from afar.

I hope that you fit into the first category...if so, then ROCK ON!

Harry I so much agree with you. This is EXACTLY what needs doing. Pretty much All legal options have been exhausted. They were a waste of time to begin with because this CORRUPT JUDGE does not rule within the law. He's a criminal himself. He has conflicts of interest coming out his ears. I can hardly believe that there are not many hundred of people if not thousands who would be prepared to committ Civil Disobedience. Unless the Governor personally steps in and takes charge of Terri Schiavo by seizing control of her under a protective order of a Disabled Person, these murderers are going to KILL her. They may not even wait until the three weeks is up. Just as she became mysteriously disabled she just may become mysteriously dead.!! This situation is a matter of life and death. The death of a TOTALLY INNOCENT GIRL. It would be against the law to do what has been done and is being done to Terri Schiavo, to a dog or cat or a death row inmate.
