First they came for the brain damaged...

"It's one thing to refuse a feeding tube for ourselves, but it's quite another when someone else makes that decision," says Diane Coleman, head of Not Dead Yet, a U.S. disability-rights group"

And this is the crux of the matter. There is very flimsy hearsay evidence that Terri "wouldn't want to live like that" and it's her husband's wish, not Terri's, that she be put to death by starvation, reaffirmed by a judge.

It's got me a little concerned. I'm taking up valuable financial resources that could have otherwise be taken out of my wife's paycheck in the form of taxes.

[longtermmemmory]

It has already started. The Feds are investigating a Miami Group Home which had disabled people die as a result of ecconomic considerations.

I posted the thread yesterday.

They'll come for any one who doesn't look like they stepped out of the pages of Cosmo and GHQ. The new enemy is Lookism.

Using "precedence", every lawmaker (ie. judge) in the US now has an opening to rid America of those with disabilities.

If Terri dies, open slather is an option.

Greer might not have been wearing an SS uniform, but his actions would greatly please the Third Reich.

My mother was all over this with the family today, saying she needs to change her living will. It has instructions for "no artificial life support". She said, "That doesn't mean I want to be starved to death."

She's got it right.

The 'disabled', the only minority any of us can join at any time...

A good friend of mine is legally blind, has a number of health problems, mostly because her mother did drugs while pregnant. Her mother told her that if it were Germany in the 1930's she would have her sent to the sanitarium to be euthanized.

Well, she wound up getting a PhD in microbiology, is getting papers published and referenced, and is a decent speed skater (competitive). These are the people that the Peter Singer fans would do away with.

First they came for the brain damaged...

That's the end of the Democrat party.

[DTogo]

Yep, the corporations who own the old folks homes or their inusurance providers will all start fishing for judges who'll order their patients' plugs pulled to spare them and "society" the expense. Then the states and lawyers of homes for the disabled will get wind of the idea, in order to meet their budgets and spare the taxpayer...

[k2blader]

Even the non-disabled should be worried..

[Logical me]

Laws better change on Capitol Hill or there will be hell to pay. When most of America sees the truth, it will effect every politician, and the Democrats better not hide. Greer set himself up. He will regret what he did. What a fool. How could a stupid probate judge get so much power.

"First they came for the brain damaged..."

[Thumper1960]

I am absolutely convinced that those who wish Terri Schiavo to die are of a cult of death and of a movement of those who see the worth of a person being what they can be used for.

I believe those who wish her to be killed are the inheritors of the eugenics movement, the Kervorkianites that weigh humanity with a cash bag and an eye to usefulness.

When these ghouls win the fight for human indignity, it won't be long before Soylent Green is reality and not a Hollywierd nightmare.

Mind Control Framework

Level Increase Acceptance 

Level Increase Acceptance consists in making the sheeple accept a new higher level of enslavement, aka brainwash.  Level Increase Acceptance techniques require for each new level:

- clear delivery of what is the new level, i.e. providing all the details that the average person  needs to understand it

- packaging the delivery, to keep the refusal level below the critical mass, during the process of acceptance.

- as soon as the process is completed, the bill can be presented.

So for the average person to understand what the bill is, it only needs to rewrite the delivery as a question.

 

Apply this against Terri. For a start, some of the packaging:

- the media keeps repeating the official story of a vegetable dying 

- "$1 million dollar baby" to present "euthanasia" as good for the victims: Hollywood made it film of the year

- $1 million dollar hoax to present the "husband" as good: the noble husband refused a (hoax) offer of $1 million to keep Terri alive 

- $1 million dollar hoax to present mass murder of elder, disabled and sick people as good for the economy: costs for Terri so far $1,1 million

-  manufactured "polls", "proving" that the large majority is behind the "husband"

[Prince Charles]

Greer reminds of that wretched Nazi Judge Roland Freisler and his "People's Court" in that he's making up laws as he goes along, instead of interpreting the law as it exists.

[BedRock]

The Democrats seem to not have a problem with starving and hydrating Terri to death.

Perhaps they will soon call for a cease of all the food and expense heaped upon the taxpayers to help feed the starving children in third world countries?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I have been saying this repeatedly.

The issue is "do we kill people with healthy bodies but damaged brains"?

It has nothing to do with what Michael may or may not have done. It has nothing to do with how Terri came to be in that state. It has nothing to do with how far she could have been brought back.

These are the issues that every one keeps talking about but they have nothing to do with the core issue. Do we want to kill the disabled?

This issue transcends Terri.

Excellent article.

Too bad you had to immediately soil it with an inane worn-out Nazi reference that we've heard for the 1000th time. We got it, ok?
