It should have read:
Would you like to spend the next 4 decades or so hooked up to a machine that keeps you 'alive' artificially while you are in a PVS with zero brain waves? IOW brain-dead with no chance of ever recovering to live even a semi-normal kind of life? And it was your expressed wish never to have such a horrible fate befall you?
Or this way:
Are you in favor of single issue death threat making fanatical mobs tearing up the Constitution, demanding governors and Presidents take dictatorial powers and the law into their own hands? Lynching any judge that disagrees, rolling down the streets in NG tanks with guns blazing and killing any sheriffs or other law enforcement officials that stand in the way?
Might have got a difference response, ya think?
As a fellow FReeper put it:
It's not about you.
Think about it.
