Yes Judge Greer is threatening Terri, but he would use his minions to carry out the deed. Force does not necessarily mean KILL. Force means 'power or energy; strength......any body of individuals organized for some specific work or action: police force....' etc. etc. My only reason for bringing it up is to show that this governor is the chief executive of that state and his duty is to see that the laws of the state UNDER THE CONSTITUTION AND THE BILL OF RIGHTS are carried out. IMO he has failed, and is just as guilty as Greer and all the others who want to see Terri dead. He has the power to use force to prevent a murder of a defenseless person, and he is dancing around with semantics. If that were a beautiful, healthy infant lying there would we even be having this conversation? Or would you think it fitting for the chief executive officer of the state to do a Pilate and say he was "just following 'the law'"? I KNOW where their so-called LAW is coming from, and we been there done that 2000 years ago.
So who are the people you advocate using justifiable force against?
