Thank you.

The facts are there for anyone who can read.

You would think that one would try and ascertain all the facts of an issue before investing as much emotional capital as some have invested in this singular case.

Seems some patrons of the "New Media" have studied and learned well the worst tactics of the "Old Media".

You're more than welcome. And you're right. It's a shame.

First, I'm not trying to pick a fight here -- I'm trying to understand your position.

For the sake of discussion, I'll grant you that the diagnosis of PVS is correct. I'll grant that this was thoroughly litigated. I'll grant that there is a huge amount of emotionalism and irrelevant nonsense being tossed around by some who agree with me.

Granting the above, my question is this: Is it right (not just legal, but right) to kill someone soley because they have been diagnosed with PVS? If the answer is yes, then how do we know how to draw the line at PVS, and not, say, at Downs syndrome, severe autists, or other severly disabled people?

Seriously, this is not a flame, or bait; I really just don't understand, and very much want to.
