"...state civil matters." Cold dude. Kinda shifts me to your opposite side even more.
I'm not trying to be cold. I'm just pointing out the fact that a dispute involving two non-governmental litigants in state court is, by definition, a state civil matter.

I just joined FR. I feel like I'm in good company.
Y'all might want to be careful who you hang out with. If you are pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-constitution, pro-Liberty, pro-America and post to FreeRepublic.com, you risk being labeled as an "extremist."
This statement is similiar to what I posted on my "who are you" page. If this is being an extremist... hooeeee....I call it normal and patriotic. I like you.

Ding. Ding. Ding.
It is all about how they "see it." Not about how it really is.
The State of Florida was not a party to this case. At least, not until that lame effort by DCF to intervene, but not really.

It [the state] was simply determining whether TS's legal guardian had the power to order her feeding tube removed. Not exactly. The statutes and case file make the actual legal framework clear. Oh, the guardian never has the power to cause death. That power is the patient's *only*. In this case, and all other like it (Cruzan comes to mind), the courts endeavor to find and implement the patient's wishes.

What crime did she commit that required the death sentence?

What crime did she commit that required the death sentence? You know this statement makes no sense. None of the litigants in this case could ever make the claim that this was a criminal matter.

To: Jim Robinson
I, too, have been called an extremist for posting at Free Republic, by Libs I taunt and enrage at some neutral sites. Often with material I have learned of, at FR.
I am proud to be called an extremist for hanging out on your site, Jim!

Just a reminder, we have an agreement. You don't ping me and I don't ping you. Your memory must be failing. Careful, when it gets to a certain point the Probate Judge will be after you. Now we're even, one post each, we can resume our mutual dislike.

Well a lot of people here are either extremely funny, extremely nice, extremely mean, extremely religious, extremely patriotic, etc. So I guess that would mean most of us are extremists.

Funny, Terri is dead, isn't she? The state only got involved in this matter because the litigants decided to go to court. Her guardian wanted to remove her feeding tube. Other family members claimed he did not have the right. They litigated the issue. That does not mean, however, that the government sentenced her to death.
