Good point.

There has to be a line somewhere. The doctors would have been better off NOT putting this man on a ventilator in the first place.

Ventilator and feeding tube are entirely different to me. I think each case is different and should be dealt with individually. Coma and brain-dead are different too.

Exactly. He's not getting any nourishment with a ventilator tube down his throat.
