The job of the Courts is to interpret the law as written, and to the best of my knowledge Terri Schiavo will starve to death because unfair and inhuman as it is, the law stands on the side of her husband.

I agree with you on this point. I believe Congress should have taken the broader view. It should craft a law setting national policy in euthanasia cases, which is what the Schiavo case is at its core.

"It should craft a law setting national policy in euthanasia cases, which is what the Schiavo case is at its core."

I don't think that it is an euthanasia case either. In an euthanasia case, there is no question as to the wishes of the person being killed.

This is murder by neglect under the power of law.

Michael Schiavo has the law on his side, and his is going to neglect his wife until she dies as a result of it.

Terry Schiavo may have certainly wished not to be maintained alive by artificial means, but I don't believe that she would have opted to be slowly starved to death.

It should set limitations on the power of the trustees, and have provisions for cruel and unusual deprivation of care.
