. . . instead of her honorable actions.

Wasn't honorable at all. If she feels so passionate about the subject, she needs to start working to get the law changed. There is nothing she can do to change what is happening to Schiavo. That is up to God, the family (Michael included), and good attorneys.

The woman broke the law pure and simple. Her heart is in the right place. Her ass is not.

She IS working to get the law changed. Civil disobediance has a strong history as the first line in law revision.

Exhibit 1: Rosa Parks.

I guess you would have condemned Rosa Parks as well.

The early patriots, in an act of civil disobedience and law-breaking, dumped bales of tea in Boston Harbor in protest to the Stamp Act imposed on Americans by the British Parliament (the legislative power-usurpers dictating to the colonies).

And they wore funny costumes also (dressing as pirates). Neal Boortz and Eleanor Clift would tear them apart for that. How dare they?

During certain pivotal occasions in the history of mankind, bold and sometimes theatrical gestures may be called for.....mostly to sharply awaken snoozing public common to every era.
