Oh, wait a minute, you weren't around then.
Would you like me to look up my posts? I was there.
You are correct.
I was not a FReeper at that time.
The world doesn't revolve around FR. If it did, maybe, just maybe Terri would be fed and content.
Well, maybe not.
It is interesting how many FReepers appear to be in the "Kill Terri," camp, for whatever reasons they may have, such as:
1. Husband has the right to kill her
2. Government has the right to kill her
3. We need to be a whole party - kill her
4. get it over with so we can get backto our own dinners and the 10pm news.
5. Euthanasia crowd - kill her
6. Saving the government money - kill her
7. See how stupid Scott P was - kill her
8. Bio-ethics profs - useless people should have no constituional rights - kill her
9. Organ Donar - She/he's PVS - take kidney, liver at 9am and turn of patient's heart at 5pm
10. Tired of her hanging around - kill her
11. Tax payers - don't want them old folks around - kill her
12. She's a veggie and looks funny - kill her
AmishDude,
When younger, I was at a place where a severe beating took place - so severe that there was blood all over the place. I was a much (MUCH) younger person and to this day, I still get both angry and ill.
Why?
I had to be physically restrained because I wanted to go out and grab one of the pipes from one of the attackers and beat them until they stopped.
An entire restaurant full of men, women and children and no one left the restaurant to help.
I learned much about human nature that day.
Most people at heart at pitiless cowards - willing to let others die at the drop of a hat.
Walking out of the restaruant I had to walk through the young man's blood.
So -
I don't care about you.
I don't care about your silly little 'look, that person's new,' attitude, which is a child's taunt (which children would use).
BUT I DO CARE ABOUT:
this country.
the way people are dealing with each other.
You see, AmishDude -
Terri's that guy out there in the parking lot getting his body beat to a damn pulp.
Jeb Bush was the guy holding me back and saying, "there's two many of them. We can't do anything."
MS, Felos, Death-camp like doctors, Judges (all those who said, "kill her, cause it's legal)..? They're the guys who beat that guy to a bloody pulp.
A whole restaurant full of people against six guys beating one guy to a pulp.
It didn't have to end with the guy's blood all over that parking lot.
The adults in the resaturant actively allowed it to happen.
And I'm not in Florida.
But the Gov was. And did nothing, though he was actually obligated to do so, under the oath he swore.
He's a coward. She dies. But that's human nature.
He lied. She died. That's inexcusable and dangerous.
