"FOOD AND WATER most likely can NOW BE CONSIDER MEDICAL TREATMENT. "
Here's the next move of the Death Demons: They'll next try to overturn living wills/advance directives that specify a patient should get food and water. They'll say that since the law calls food and water medical treatment, such directives contradict the law.
It'll be a quiet, hardly noticed civil case. They'll call such directives "illegal contracts". Once they get that precedent, they'll have a free hand to kill at will.
Watch for it.

I just got home and saw that Terri just recieved Communion about an hour or go or so. WOW, the first request allowed by HINO huh? What a piece of work he is! I hope he has fun in hell, cause that is where he is going unless he repents to GOD for this!
I don't think Terri will live the rest of this day. So sad!

Here's the next move of the Death Demons: They'll next try to overturn living wills/advance directives that specify a patient should get food and water. They'll say that since the law calls food and water medical treatment, such directives contradict the law. That is exactly what grabs me most about this, aside from possible future plans to rid society of the "useless eaters" and those with what they consider to have a lesser "quality of life." Now food and water is life by "artificial means" and is also "extreme measure" and "life support."
Now they will be going after the less than "perfect" people in our country.
As to what a judge might or might not be able to say... I think we've learned in this that they can say ANYTHING and their word is law.
