Any human law that prevents a disabled woman from drinking water is an insult to the word "law"; laws are written to protect people, not to murder the innocent with.
I agree. If Mr. Churchill's now famous epithet were ever applicable, this would be the case, no disrespect intended for your sons, and other LEO's who would know what to do, Sinkspur.
Thank you. God Bless.

With Jeb Bush leading them.
I would NOT want to be one of those LEO a_holes on judgement day. "I was just doing my job" ain't going to cut it
The right honorable Justice Greer could give new meaning to a hung jury.
We have keyboard jockeys who sat on their butts for two years and did absolutely nothing to push the Florida legislature to put in place a law that would have prevented the terrible situation we see today.
Laws are changed by legislators, not by hot dogs deciding which laws they will observe, and which they will not.
The local bishop himself should have showed up on Easter Sunday with food, water, and Holy Communion (risking arrest as well if necessary).
I agree.
Remember though, even Peter denied Our Lord. Imagine THAT crime. An innocent in the most absolute sense of the word DIED on the Cross and Peter denied Him.
Gov. Bush is making both a moral and political mistake, but I cannot bring myself to scream at him. He will have to live with this, just as Peter did. I hope he is doing God's Will and I am thankful I am not in his shoes tonight.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
Stay in the pot and cook if you want. Some of the rest of us find the temperature a bit hot.
Get thee to Florida, then.
Has this whole damned board gone crazy? Advocating lawlessness is not the solution to anything!
Jesus didn't do that because he knew it was preordained by God the Father that he would die for our sins.
The manner of the messiah's persecution and death was forecast by the prophets of the Old Testament; and Jesus was aware of what was to come.
Terri, OTOH, is not Jesus. According to Christian belief, as I understand it, we have already been saved by the one and only sacrifice necessary for our redemption.
Of course, Terri IS being sacrificed --but at the altar of New Age-ism (read: paganism), led by its spiritual leader George Soros Felos.
Get thee to Florida.
I don't know that and he probably didn't know that...God may work on the kop's hearts and allow someone to get thru...If we're going to pray for a miracle, may as well be ready for one...
This is just ridiculous. Retarded. Barbaric.
It is ABOMINATION.
ALL THE PRIESTS of the diocese should have come together WITH the bishop to risk arrest to bring her the Holy sacraments of Our Lord and food, water, and proper medical and legal AUTHORITIES. Including JEB. In fact, the bishop should ORDER Jeb to show up in person!
I am sorry, folks, but THIS IS WHY the NRA is EXACTLY RIGHT about the right to "keep and bear arms."
Dear sinkspur,
"Advocating lawlessness is not the solution to anything!"
Contrary to their own high self-opinions, the judges are not the law. The law is the law.
The orders of the murderer greer are not lawful. To enforce them is to engage in lawlessness.
The police who are enforcing them are not even enforcing orders that are lawful on the surface, as they do not only require the cessation of artificial means of feeding and hydration, but even normal means.
These police refused to obey the ACTUAL LEGAL ORDERS of the governor of the state, as the state police tried to enforce them. It is THESE police who are the lawless ones, as is the rest of the American judiciary.

Haven't read down through this lon-n-g thread yet; but on the off-chance that someone else hasn't given the legal definition of "burglary", here's what you'll find in Black's Law Dictionary :
Burglary. At common law, the crime of burglary consisted of a breaking and entering of a dwelling house of another in the nighttime with the intent to commit a felony therein. The modern statutory definitions of the crime are much less restrictive. For example, they commonly require no breaking and encompass entry at all times of all kinds of structures. In addition, certain state statutes classify the crime into first, second, and even third, degree burglary.A person is guilty of burglary if he enters a building or occupied structure, or separately secured or occupied portion thereof, with purpose to commit a crime therein, unless the premises are at the time, open to the public or the actor is licensed or privileged to enter. It is an affirmative defense to prosecution for burglary that the building or structure was abandoned. Model Penal Code, § 221.1.

Offering a drink of water to a helpless, dying woman is not unlawful behavior. Never was, never will be. The insanity resides on the other side of this struggle. God will judge.
