Never thought I'd find myself saying this, but as to the above statement, for once I agree with Cynthia Tucker.
I don't. To use an analogy, I have respect for the police, but that doesn't mean I'm going to obey every single "order" that a policeman gives to me, no matter how patently outrageous. Likewise, any "law" that demands the death of an innocent person doesn't deserve respect, and saying that doesn't mean I have no respect for the law.
Would you characterize the people who assisted runaway slaves on the Underground Railroad as lawless?
Yes. That is a different question and answer from whether or not they were right to do so. Yes, they were.
However, there is no comparison whatsoever between slavery and the issues raised by the Schiavo case. You are free, of course, to respect or disrespect what you wish. In the same vein, I and others are free to view you as a religious extremist who admittedly has no respect for the law and no understanding of the separation of powers on which this government was founded.
