Has anyone watched Soylent Green recently? The praise of Soros reminds me of the end of the movie when the older man goes to 'die' (be killed). As he is put to death, he gets to listen to beautiful music and see beautiful nature scenes.
Does making the surroundings nicer, make killing better? If HOSPICE wants to keep their good name, they need to condemn the practice of admitting people to be starved and dehydrated to death.
don't be too sure this isn't happening here - I read somewhere not long ago about a delivery room nurse who left her profession because there were instances of handicapped babies just put in a delivery room closet to die...
There are people, who have the power of life and death over people, that loose their perspective - and slip into believing they have the right to decide who is better off dying - (think of all the "death nurses" that have put patients to sleep, forever, because they thought they were better off.
No one has the fight to make that decision for another human being.
"I tried my local radio host whom had argued for the death of Terry, he wouldn't take my call, go figure."
Go to his station web site and listen carefully to identify his SPONSORS, then tell them exactly how you feel!
Point out the latest Zogby polls are now showing....
Also, you may want to peruse this thread, LET’S KILL ALL THE OLD and Disabled PEOPLE, as well (I did post some links on there regarding costs/mortality rates/morphine usage, etc. re hospice).
Also, this thread Law changed by Hospice where terri is dying - More information (Unsourced), should be of some interest to you, as well. Calpernia and Fedora posted quite a few Soros links on it.
Eeevil,
Don't let the buzzards get you down. Your work here is having results, and is part of what has to happen. See, on FR,
It's not always, "Make a hole. Here comes a Marine."
It's, "Make a hole. Here comes Eeevil."

And this is the Soros' Foundation?

Still don't see the link between Soros PDIA and the "killing" in hospices. I have repeatedly said that states should reconsider their laws relating to guardianship of the termally ill taking into consideration living wills, technology, and distinguishing between life support and feeding mechanisms. But to fund efforts at comfort and help for terminally ill does not appear to me to be the devil's work.
SO DO YOU!!
LOL!
Thanks...
I am a learnin'!!
OH NO!
Thanx for the refresh. :)
Sometimes people who want to do evil, do some good stuff to hide the evil.
I have read so much about Soros that I don't trust him one bit.
Is this hospice in Georgia connected with the "global oneness", scientology deal that Felos is piddling in down in Florida?
Heck. By the time they starve someone for two weeks, it's no wonder they look pretty bad.
ditto
P.S.
Hitler was kind to children and dogs.
Does that give Hitler the license to have been responsible for killing an estimated 40 million people, including the disabled, holocaust and the wars??
See my point?
How is Soros funding the death industry?
He is funding hospices which are supposed to give loving care to
the terminal, and to get into most hospices the "terminal" label
means in imminent (weeks) confrontatioin with death.
Here, within a month, we find that doctors, donors, family members
are helping people to become terminal, fraudulently admitting them to hospices with the purpose of promoting death.
Soros' quotes elsewhere on this thread about his father's and mother's deaths are very telling. We have also learned that there are many doctors in the pro death movement. Take a patient with severe medical/mental problems, admit them to a hospice, cut the nutrition and hydration, and .....Voila! a terminal patient.
The meds and deprivation are obviously keeping Mae from being coherent. Looks like a huge blossoming court case to me.
Still---a huge donation to a "caring, sustaining" organization is chalked up for Soros.
He, Ted Turner and many celebrities and world luminaries belong to various world organizations that believe the planet's only hope of survival is to halve the population--or better. Ted Turner is on record as believing that 90,000,000 would be a good world population. How many billions would that eliminate?

Well. I wonder what the granddaughter stands to inherit by having her grandmother starved? What is the judge gaining by this apparent travesty?
Sounds like the lady is hanging on for dear life as Terri did.
Sounds like the hospice itself aiding the granddaughter is a DANGER OF DEATH for Mae. The granddaughter seems like a DANGER OF DEATH for Mae.
This brother and sister of Mae threaten her with what? the DANGER OF LIFE?!
How lousy.
My husband's parents (both 81) said today that the granddaughter would find out one day that age is all relative.
Even if you put in a living will that you want to starve to death, it's suicide. Nourishment is not extraordinary means; it is ordinary means. Why is Dr. Kervorkian in jail?
Not only that, but you just might change your mind:
The Will to Live
When Marjorie Nighbert entered a nursing home after having a stroke, she did not expect to be starved to death, but that is what happened when she became a victim of her own "wishes."
Like many people, she did not want her life to be prolonged when death was imminent. So Nighbert created a durable power of attorney (DPA), in which she gave her brother control over medical decisions in case she could not make them for herself. And according to the family lawyer, Nighbert said she did not want a feeding tube if she became terminally ill.
When Nighbert fell ill the nursing home followed the orders of the DPA and denied her food and water for two weeks. But then something unexpected happened: She asked to be fed. A court battle ensued, and the court ultimately upheld the nursing home's decision to deny Nighbert food and water. According to the judge, Nighbert was not competent to ask for food, and to give her food would constitute "extraordinary means."
Nighbert died on April 6, 1995.
