Btw, I hope you don't think I'm picking on you.
I'm just posting the arguments that have been presented to the trial courts, appellate courts, and Supreme Court of Florida, as well as to the federal courts and the US Supreme Court.
If I come across as being in favor of removing Terri's tube, I regret it. I'm actually quite neutral on this case, and I would love for the Schindlers and the Schiavos to solve this family matter outside the court system. The adversarial nature of civil court just brings out nastiness and stubbornness on people, and both the Schindlers and the Schiavos are guilty of such behavior.
Terri is the only innocent victim here.
And I'm just reading and looking at all the facts, as opposed to what the Courts and, most especially, what Judge Greer have actually looked at or considered.
It is only through evil that one can pretend to be "neutral." Either Terri has such a desperate right-to-die that hearsay of casual comments without oath or informed consent made at a time when the definition of "life support" did NOT include feeding is sufficient to enable its execution (pun intended) -- or else this is a giant travesty against all that is right and good.
I vote the latter.
