That's a cop out, and you know it.
If you are advocating justifiable force, you must know who it is that the force is to be used against.

Back up and back off.
I obviously stepped into something going on between you and 1stFreedom. You asked:
'Please show me state or federal law that allows Bush to send armed National Guard soldiers to the hospital to fend off anyone who comes near her?'
Having already in the recent past run across the statutes on 'justifiable force', and having them handy, I thought I'd help you out by pointing you in the direction you asked for. I did not say I was advocating it; YOU said I was advocating it. I was just pointing out that that option exists BY STATUTE. Maybe your vision of justifiable force and mine differ - you thinking worst case scenerio going in guns blazing. My idea would be, IF I were advocating it, would be, first and foremost, a peaceful appearance of law enforcement to PROTECT Terri as a police officer would PROTECT a witness to a crime while the witness was hospitalized, OR the PEACEFUL removal of Terri to a neutral spot where she would be protected from harm.
From there, I went on to list some of the misdeeds of 'Judge' Greer, which was my main purpose for being on the thread. Later I realized that perhaps you did not read the link I gave more than once, the title of which is GOVERNOR BUSH MANDATED BY STATUTE TO REMOVE SCHIAVO 'JUDGE'. http://www.theempirejournal.com/0219056_gov.htm . [Quotation marks added by me.] If you had read it without that chip on your shoulder, looking for trouble where there wasn't any, you might have made the inference that I was trying to add additional justification for removing the 'judge', not by KILLING him, as you startled me by suggesting, but by FIRING him. Please read the article if you have not. I'm a Christian, and I take my faith seriously. While my carnal self might contemplate some unChristian wishful thinking against these fiends, my spiritual side kicks in and I am reminded that Christ did not call for violence. A Christian's warfare is not carnal: http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/2Cr/2Cr010.html#4 . You might not realize it, but this is a spiritual battle we are in. If we win it without bloodshed, that means all the more glory to God.
Now, I have spent the entire afternoon trying to clean up my computer, which entailed linking to pertinent articles from each window before I nuked it. Since I ran across what 'I did not have the time to research' yesterday, I am posting the following FOR THE RECORD, and so that I can close those windows.

FirstFreedom has given you additonal statutes, and you should know, that although I have been searching and copying a lot of the statutes today, I never even noticed those. Hopefully that will tell you how obsessed with the 'guns blazing' approach I am....NOT.
I appologize for addressing you, and will refrain from addressing you in the future. You apparently have issues I don't want to be involved in.
