Your cuz might be a mental case but he probably has stuff going on upstairs, unlike Terri. If not, and if the law gives the spouse the say so, and if the mental case has a spouse, or if the parents want rid of him, unplug him.

Is it fair to say it isn't the feeding tube that you're against, it's lower mental "capacity"? i.e., if a person on a feeding tube was proved to be of a certain mental awareness, you wouldn't advocate pulling their feeding tube? (that would equal murder to you?)

No, absolutely not! I'm against bridging the separation of powers between the three branches. I'm against letting emotion override the law.
