It doesnt matter what you, me, the husband or even Terri whether she wants to die or not. If I ask someone to kill me, no matter how much I truly mean it, if the person kills me it is murder plain and simple. The most Terri can have done to her is refuse medical treatment, which doesnt include food and water, so in this case it is assited suicide. Otherwise the guardian is knowingly starving a person and therefore a murderer. Call it what you want but it doesnt matter what anyone feels best for her if it goes against the law.
The husband should be tried for murder if she dies from his decision.
Man's law has defined food and water as medical treatment, natural law does not.
Hmmm. If someone is in prison, then goes on a fast (to protest something perhaps) and he dies of starvation even though food and water were provided, is that murder? I suspect the ACLU would jump on it, yet it's no different than Schivo's case in that legally you have a person (the guardian on behalf of T.S.) making a consious choice to die.
