"All the tenured posters here who thought Michael had the right to kill Terri, wanted Elian back with his father in Cuba?"

How did you guess?

Exactly so.

Now...isn't that rich?

In Schiavo, you wanted the parents' rights to trump the husband's.

In Elian, screw the parent's right and give the boy to extended aunts and uncles.

LOL!

In Terri's case, the choice was between life and death, we are for life.

In Elian's case, the choice was between freedom or slavery, we were/are for freedom.

It is sad, that some FReepers stand for death for an innocent defenseless woman, and slavery for an innocent, defenseless child.

parents rights...

What about Elians mother who gave her life to get her son to America. Why didnt his father come if they were in a loving family? Probably b.c he was out drinking and whoreing while she was taking care of Elian.


As for Elians Life... He has become Castros Poster Child. Thus he is going to be one of the "cultured party elite" who goes to the best schools, and has the best stuff in Cuba. Something which shows the corruption of Communism.

Michael Schiavo was a husband in name only. He was living with another woman and had two children by her. Thus the marital bond was completely compromised. Michael Schiavo had NO MORAL RIGHT to be making decisions for Terri.

Elian's mother and father were NOT married and Elian's father had begun a new family with someone else. Elian's mother who sacrificed her life to bring Elian to the United States, did so with the knowledge and permission of Elian's father who stated on several occasions he intended to get to the United States himself, in a tub, if he had to. Elain's father WANTED Elian here. After Castro stepped in, Elian's father was not free to speak the truth.

It is MOST disturbing that people like yourself are unable to distinguish between the above and normal situations.

Human rights trump all other rights. Elian's mom wanted her son in the US - protecting his human rights. And what about her parental rights? In the Schiavo case, her parents wanted her alive. Life rights trump "husband" convenience rights.

You need to think things through before you go posting malarchey.
