Randall Terry, Founder of Operation Rescue Invited by Family to Help Save Daughter From Court Ordered Starvation
24-Hour Vigil Begins Monday, October 13
TAMPA BAY- Terri Schindler-Schiavo, age 39, will have her feeding tube removed at 2PM on Wednesday, October 15, unless Governor Jeb Bush is persuaded to intervene.
Terri Schindler-Schiavo, although disabled, is not in a coma. She is not in a vegetative state. She laughs, and cries, she says yes and no. She has clearly communicated that she does not want to be starved to death.
On Monday, October 13, at 12 noon, Terri's family and friends will begin a 24-hour-a-day vigil outside the Woodside Hospice where Terri lives. Hospice Woodside is located at 6774 102nd Avenue N. (near 66th Street N and 102nd Avenue N) in Pinellas Park, Florida. The vigil will continue until Terri is rescued by Governor Bush, or killed.
Press Conference Scheduled for Monday, October 13, at noon, in front of the Woodside Hospice where Terri lives. Hospice Woodside is located at 6774 102nd Avenue N. (near 66th Street N and 102nd Avenue N) in Pinellas Park, Florida.
Statement from the parents of Terri Schindler-Schiavo--Bob & Mary Schindler:
We love our daughter very much and we want her home. Over the last 13 years, Terri has laughed with us, cried with us, talked with us, and even tried to get out of her chair. The accusations that Terri is in a coma or is a "vegetable" are a lie.
We beg Michael Schiavo, and those working with him to end our daughter's life, to let her come home to her family. We will sign any agreement you want, giving you all monies related to Terri's collapse and any insurance money that may be forthcoming. You take the money. We just want our daughter.
-------------------------------------------
Terri Schindler-Schiavo's parents have invited Randall Terry, founder of Operation Rescue, and Gary McCullough, of the Christian Communication Network, to help save her life.
"It is inconceivable that a tin-pot judge has ordered the starvation of this young woman. All of us need to do everything in our power to rescue Terri from this cruel death. That duty begins with Governor Bush." -Randall Terry, Founder of Operation Rescue

Randall Terry will be at the press conference and is available for interviews at (202) 546-0054

Father, hear the cries of Terri's parents and send them extraordinary help now! Only You can prevent the death of this beloved daughter. I humbly ask this of You, Father, in Your Son's name...Amen!
While I agree with the sentiment, I must ask what is the vehicle Jeb should use? What power inherant in his office can overcome the mandate of a (federal???) court? I certainly believe that a recall/impeachment for the judge(s) involved is highly appropriate.
If I lived in Florida, and this does occur, I'd be sorely willing to have the husband the scum arrested on 1st degree murder charges.
I pray it doesn't get to that point!
...so they are seeking any measure to stay this execution.
...But Randall Terry is not their great hope, and I don't think they know this.
I feel he will do more harm than good...
...even in the Christian circles now, he has considerable baggage...
...there was a time, years ago, when he was an articulate and passionate spokesman for the Pro-life cause.
People change.
Randall Terry has changed.
Even though I think thousands should..hold vigil with these parents the next 3 days.....
..I sadly think the emphasis will be directed solely at Terry....that he will grab the spotlight and it will become about him.
I have lost confidence that he can effect any change.
I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
Yesterday, though, I saw and heard a man named Edwin Black who has written a book called THE WAR ON THE WEAK. In it he talks about the American Eugenics Movement which is now called the American Genetics Movement. He talks about who they were, who funded them and how they inspired the Nazis in the 1920's. It is truly a chilling story. He also has a book out about IBM's involvement in the Holocaust. I found him artculate, compelling, sincere and believable. After reading what Chesterton had to say about the Eugenics MOvement back in the 1920's I consider these books a must read for all who want to understand and recognise the enemies of LIFE.
