It's the legislature that failed Terri, by not changing the law. But, "we the people" elect the legislature and get the laws that we deserve.

I am sure God will understand when we explain that legally we could not do a thing.

Yes, both the legislative and the executive branches utterly failed.

They, along with the judiciary, totally ignored Section Two of the Florida constitution, the basic law of the State.


SECTION 2. Basic rights.--All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life and liberty, to pursue happiness, to be rewarded for industry, and to acquire, possess and protect property; except that the ownership, inheritance, disposition and possession of real property by aliens ineligible for citizenship may be regulated or prohibited by law. No person shall be deprived of any right because of race, religion, national origin, or physical disability.
