Criminal...
Gabriel Keys (foreground) is arrested by police officers for
trespassing in Pinellas Park, Florida, March 23, 2005. The
young protester attempted to take a glass of water into
the Woodside Hospice for the brain-damaged Terri Schiavo.
A federal judge approved the murder of Terri Schiavo by
rejecting a request from her parents to order her feeding
tube reinserted to save her life.http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/050323/ids_photos_ts/r4209066064.jpg
I wish the parents all the luck in the world but I've lost faith in the system. The real problem is how opinionated and arrogant people can be, I doubt there was any chance Judge Greer would ever change his mind. I hope Jeb Bush takes Terri into protected custody. I know that if everyone acted above the law when they deemed it necessary laws would be meaningless, but with a woman being starved to death under guard this is a time for bold action.
IMHO.
If the USSC decides not to hear the case or does hear it but rules against the Schindlers and, at that time, if all the folks standing outside the hospice and writing on threads such as this one in support of Terri don't rush in and at least try to stop what is going on then all the nashing of teeth and cries of condemnation against the President,his brother, et al. will be viewed as empty rhetoric and will diminish the 'culture of life' argument in future cases.
If folks are truly, truly incensed by what is going on then they, you, had better be prepared to back it up with action and face the very real risk of jail.
At what point do your convictions waiver?
.....I have never seen the wheels of justice grind more slowly than I have on this case...my heart goes out to Terri's family.....this is more than one family can bear....
SC just denied request.
