What you say is quite fair. However, the point is this: Terri Schiavo is going to die very soon in all likelihood. Then what? Does everyone just walk away? Do they lash out in willy nilly in all directions, blaming anyone and everyone from the husband all the way up to the POTUS? Was this really just about the Terri Schiavo soap opera, or about the legal and medical issues highlighted by this case? Were people really worked up about principles? If so, the principles far transcend this one case.

Yes, a lot of people will walk away from this story when she dies. You can probably watch leave them on foxnews.
This isnt an issue in every case. In fact, there has been an explosion of people inquiring about living wills this week.
It simply will not be an across the board protest movement about however many cases you say exist. It is fact dependent, and only becomes a public issue when a controversy arises.

Frankly if there is any justice in this country at all, and I sincerely doubt it.
What should be done is to subpoena every hospital record on her.
The Physical Rhehabilation records, the Speech Pathology records, the swallowing studies should be examined in dept.
If there is indication that she was making progress, if she was swallowing at some point, then Michael Shiavo, Judge Greer, Felos should be prosecuted for entering into a criminal conspiracy to commit homicide.
That would reign in some judicial activism.
