Terri's Freepers,
Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.
What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.
Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.
If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.
A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.
Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.
What can we do?
1. LOBBY TO SAVE TERRI
2. HELP BUMP THIS THREAD.
3. POST ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT TERRI.
4. VISIT PINELLAS COUNTY FLORIDA AND VIGIL WITH US AT HOSPICE WOODSIDE.
5. VISIT TALLAHASSEE AND LOBBY IN THE HALLS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
6. HOLD A DEMONSTRATION AT THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION.
7. Join the Message Board that freepers started at the Crystal Cathedral/Hour of Power. TELL YOUR CHURCH ABOUT TERRI.
8. Tell your friends that Terri is alert and aware of her surroundings and to visit www.terrisfight.org to see her videos.
9. PETITIONS. We will gather current Petitions here for you. At this time, you can sign a SAVE TERRI PETITION AT www.renewamerica.us. THERE ARE ALSO IMPEACH GREER PETITIONS ABOUT.
Finally, the Pope has no Living Will. He will be SAFE as long as he stays away from George Greer's courtroom. The Pope is in our thoughts and prayers and he knows of Terri. He wants Terri to be freed from oppression and from a painless death by starvation-dehyration.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO EVERY DAY, THE PAY ISN'T VERY GOOD BUT THE FRINGE BENEFITS ARE THE GREATEST. You are Great Americans and liberty is Terri's and freedom from oppression. Freepers, that is the big payoff if we continue our daunting task.
Terri's family is grateful to you and all of your prayers are being heard by the Giver of Life.
This is Terri's Fight and the battle is enjoined. JOIN US TO SAVE TERRI FROM FORCES THAT HAVE BUT ONE GOAL THAT IS AGAINST EVERYTHING AMERICAN.

We'll forgo the wet noodle! :)
It's 2am and I need to go to bed before I'm too sleepy for prayer.
Night!
Taking note. Thanks for sharing FEEDING TUBES ARE NOT ARTIFICIAL LIFE SUPPORT WITHOUT OUR WRITTEN INFORMED CONSENT!!! I think it is a good talking point. Don't want them to think we are talking about Terri or they just might lose their support. What's wrong with this picture? I agree with your talking point. I didn't get a chance to call Bilirakis' office yesterday but I will this morning. Another reported to me that he supports the new bill. The major hurdle may be the senate so we really need to get Tom Lee on board against crime and supporting the talking point you mention. We need a definitive answer as he has been speaking in the press out of both sides of his mouth. Is he for conflicted guardians, those who attempt murder, and not protecting the vulnerable and disabled from being fleeced and murdererd or is he for good people, justice, helping the disabled and vulnerable not to be fleeced and murdered?! Find out and report back to the list.
Thanks for ya'll too.
;=] you guys on the west coast? lol.
Hi. Thanks for helping get me back.
Will Do! I think this will be VERY effective.
As soon as I post this I will start contacting every radio guy/gal on your list and ask them to broadcast from Florida.
Thank you. Ya'll are needed very much for Terri too. Let's really make some calls today! etc.
Here is something you can tell them.
I am writing to ask your support for US Congress, Bill No. 1151 (HB701 if writing to Florida senators and representatives).
I truly hope you will not allow it to spend weeks in committee and more pork added to it than one can find on a Nebraska hog farm.
Not only is this bill important to Terri Schiavo, but believe it or not, many of our returning servicemen are coming back with brain damage. Flack jackets prevent them from being killed most of the time, but wounds to the face and neck can and do cause brain damage. The precedent being set by the judiciary in Florida will make these men extremely vulnerable to being killed by request. Can YOU ask a man to fight if he knows he might return home to be starved and dehydrated to death.
Likewise, a large number of retirees throughout the nation have made themselves wards of phased care retirement centers in exchange for their assets. Money is a powerful motivator. These retirees may live in different states than their families, having moved to places like Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Mississippi, and Florida. Their families might not even know if the retirement center found an unscrupulous medical technician to call them PVS and then petitioned the judiciary to put them to death by starvation/dehydration.
This nation currently has approximately 7 to 9 embargoes against nation states for violations of human rights. They are WATCHING carefully to see whether the United States of America will actually permit the judiciary to starve and dehydrate a citizen (committing genocide) to death, who has not committed any crime. How can we ever demand human rights for other countries if we ourselves deny them to our own CITIZENS. They will laugh at us and your commercial embargo will have no teeth because other countries will simply supply them directly or indirectly or buy the goods, label it as their own, and sell it to us while they are laughing at us too!
NO ONE IN THE UNITED STATES SHOULD BE STARVED/DEHYDRATED TO DEATH FOR ANY REASON.
Please support Bill No. 1151, The Incapacitated Persons Act (or HB701 if writing to Florida senators or representatives) right now!
Sincerely,
For the Florida Senators the FL Senate Bill is SB 2128 I believe.
Taking note.. There is some very good points here to be culled. Thanks!
Gotta work on lotsa stuff at the same time, multi tasking...
Let's at least get the Florida House Health Care Committee to approve this, get it out of committee
EVERYONE.. THE MEETING IS TODAY WEDNESDAY DO THIS NOW...
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1352657/posts?page=3497#3497
Here is what I wrote:
Mr. Garcia,
I am and American citizen living in France.
I wish to offer my input into the committee meeting on HB 701
A Feeding Tube should not be considered as Artificial Life Support.
My cousin has had a feeding tube since he was born, and he is now 20 years old.
You only connect when you eat. The rest of the time, you are not connected to anything.
Many disabled people require feeding tubes in order to receive nourishment.
Food and Hydration are the basics to life, and should be classified as Ordinary Care
Not Extraordinary Artificial Life Support.
Unless a person has a written request (my father has one and he HAS requested to not be fed if he cant eat himself)
We, meaning we society, should not deny anyone food and hydration, unless they has requested this in writing.
Although my father has requested starvation in a certain set of circumstances, I have in my living will, that I WANT to be fed.
Food and Water are basic to life and a feeding tube is placing the food into the stomach, instead of the mouth.
Plenty of people are spoon fed, fed by hand, the feeding tubes are for convenience of the nursing staff.
Please change Florida Law so that disabled people are not starved to death in Florida.
One last thing, this is getting very bad press in France. Americans are being portrayed as barbaric.
In France they love their food and drink and would not consider involuntarily starving people to death.
Post #3494 bump!
Great letters.
Ping to #3511 & #3514
A bump in the night - and a prayer too. Thank you for all you are doing...
More salient points. People in Spain and other parts of the world are watching as well as France. They are also calling as well to let them know their disgust at their wishy washyness and not realizing that they are going back down the road of Nazi Germany. If anything is headed for a train wreck let it be the side which seeks to snuff out the most vulnerable and disabled, etc. who either cannot speak for themselves because they truly can't or who have been denied their voice purposely because of others trying outright to accomplish murder upon them seeminly under color of law. It is obvious why the death interests are scared because they don't want INFORMED CONSENT. for total domination they need to be able to get rid of the most vulnerable and disabled, and injured right away! after they have fleeced them of their money or have money waiting in the wings because of their schemes. These death interests are worse than the very dregs of humanity. Can they even be compared to the very dregs?
I already sent my letter to my Federal represntatives about
