"A certain number of established and often "well respected" Freepers who have weighed in on the side of death in this fight.. Some of their comments have turned quite ugly, mimicking what you'd see on DU."

Can't say I've seen people weigh in on the side of death so much as on the side of trying to get to the truth of the matter no matter how ugly it is?

There's much rumor, speculation, mis-information, dis-information and manipulation surrounding the treatment of this young lady.

It's obviously a very emotional issue and I think the ugly comments come from everywhere?

Exactly. By the time I was actively following these threads heels had been dug in...but I really didn't understand the background at the time.

Is it 'getting to the truth', when Terri is referred to as a "carrot" ?
Is it 'getting to the truth' when her parents are referred to as "evil" and the "Schwinders"?
Is it "getting to the truth" when those of us who favor life are called "religous whackos"?

Those were all quotes from established Freepers.. just the tip of the iceberg..
We have established certain threads merely for prayer and support, and these have all been infiltrated by people seeking nothing more than to harrass.
