It is about time that many of the public realize that there are things that go on in this world that are none of our business when it comes to another person's personal life. People in this country should stop inserting their will into others' lives.

If Terri's wishes were known, I would agree. But in this case, there was reasonable doubt - a civilized society errs on the side of life in these cases. Thats where you come in - it is your business, unless you're cool with being labeled "sub-human" and herded off in cattle cars...

My point is.......It doesn't matter what WE think about her wishes. By law her husband (or in the reverse case, the wife) has the lawful right to speak for the spouse who can't. We just have to live with it. I don't want the law changed to take away my right to make the decision for my children or spouse based on someone else's beliefs or wishes.

And, NO, it is not our business when it comes to private decisions. It becomes our business when someone tries to impose their will on the whole majority. Or the government sticking it's nose where it does not belong.
