Not that it will ever be up to me, but I think I'd be willing to give a free pass to anyone at this juncture who used violence to avert this crime. I simply can't believe this is happening.

I have to agree, AH. The ~~democRAT~~ communist party wouldn't hesitate to resort to violence at the drop of a hat (or a sign that said simply "COWARD").

BTW, I think the sign, IS THIS HOSPICE OR AUSCHWITZ is very telling!

Since when do we starve our children to death in this country and then call it humane? It matters not how old the child is whether they are 2, 22, 32, 42 etc.. The death sentence of Terri Schindler is nothing more than Murder and must be stopped. I do not personally know her, but I am sickened and outraged by the life decisions of our courts in her case. She is a viable human being!

At last check a person could be jailed and charged with animal cruelty for starving their dog. No matter what the reason it is called inhumane. Why is Terri being considered as less than human with far less rights than a dog? She does not sustain her life by machinery only by food. Not unlike you or me and billions of other living beings, food is the number one life sustaining birthright!

I suffer from multiple diseases and one day it will be necessary for my husband to seek nursing care for me and I have prepared him and my family to carry out my wishes. I do not want to be sustained by machine, but I do not want to starve to death either. If in fact Terri had stated (during some point in her life) that she did not want to live as a vegetable or on machinery or artificial means I am sure she did not give one thought to her feeding. Who in their right mind would say, "honey, if ever I am incapacitated I would like to be starved to death."

No! I might not want to live on machines, but I would not choose to starve to death. If I can get nourishment and am not on machinery then there is hope! As there is hope for Terri! She has not gone backward in her recovery and is at no immediate risk to do so which means she has hope and a chance. I personally know 2 persons who suffered brain injuries, one in a coma for 1 year the other 6 months and they were called vegetables. Brain dead. No hope. Not viable. Phooey!

They are both alive and well! Allen fully recovered and Julie recovered with physical deficits, but gets around in a wheelchair and has a fully functioning brain. Neither of them needed machinery to keep them alive..........Only food! They had a chance just like Terri!

We have all heard the saying, "Our judicial system is set up to protect the criminals, not the victims" and in this case I absolutely agree. Anyone ruling to end this woman's life by starvation without her consent is a criminal and should be put on trial as such! Have we become Nazi's? Weren't members of the Nazi party put on trial for similar crimes? Hitler didn't think the Jews were viable humans either and starved them to death. Did we think that was humane and in the Jews best interest? I think not.

As for the Judges and politicians who sit back and let this happen......we will remember each and every one of you at the polls. Pull your heads out of the sand and give this family their precious child as only they should have the right to decide what is best for their daughter.

Hopeful for Terri

Be careful, for you become evil as well. Violence is not the answer here. It would not solve anything.
