So your saying, it was best to let Terri starve to death.
I agree in the rule of law. But sometimes there are exceptions where its not right.
This was definitely that moment.

This is the question I have too. I'd like to hear others' comments. After all, FR's strength is that "come, let us reason together" approach to thorny issues isn't it?

So I ask....when, or under what circumstances would it be appropriate to disobey the law? Certainly our history has had ample evidence of the 'rightness' of such lawless action; refusing to sit at the back of a bus, transporting &/or harboring fugitive slaves, a tea party...things like that. Could this not have been one of those times?
