Under the Florida Statutes, he has no rights, only responsibilities to his ward.

So, it is your position that the judge in this case just hates Terri and wants to kill her, in spite of what the law says?

BTW, under our system of law, responsibilities alway confer rights and vice versa. To have responsibilities without rights is slavery.

Wrong again. Read the statute. There is no expressed rights given to a guardian. Only responsibilities to the ward.

The ward, however, has retained rights - those which cannot be taken away by the guardian or the courts. Amongst those retained rights are the rights to receive basic humane care, restoration to capacity, treatment of infection, due process and legal representation. All of the above have been denied by this judge and the guardian.

Do I think he hates Terri Schiavo? No. I think he hates women. Why else would he deny (on a hypertechnicality) an abused woman a protective order against her husband. That particular abused woman's corpse was found two weeks later.
