Well that totally ignores the fact that any would care whether Terri was killed or not. It is all about a paltry 700000.
Then why do you think they spent years in courts? Trying to get 200-300,000?
Most readers here know that the relationship changed when it dawned on the parents that Michael was now making claims that Terri did not want to live with "tubes". Why had he not mentioned in the 7 years prior? And, that meant, that Michael was taking steps to withdraw those tubes.
Any parent knows that the death of the daughter is the prime consideration here - not the money. The money was when the turn in direction occurred by Michael. It was not the Schlinders and you full well know it.
And before you spring back with more assaults on those parents ------ even if it had been about the money - it does not matter a whit because they still do not have to agree to allow a son-in-law to kill a daughter.
Now - please wake up and get over the obsession with wonderful Micheal. We all have made our judgement of Michael by his actions over the last years. We don't need word games.
Why did you put that first sentence in quotes? I certainly didn't use that language, but it's most interesting that you did.
And, btw, do you think that people who don't wish to be kept alive in this way are committing suicide? It's your right to think that, but I'm certainly glad that thus far in this country we are all allowed self determination vs. determination by a few who are pushing the pro life agenda beyond the original life for the innocent unborn.
Btw, I didn't call you any names.
I specifically mentioned the neck because there was no report of neck injury in the autopsy report, Smarta**. Go back and read my posts and ensuing exchanges. And don't mischaracterize them again.
Being paranoid is calling someone a name...it's a condition..like PVS.
Let's try that again..."Being paranoid ISN'T calling someone a name"...there.
No. "Terribots" is name calling and worthy of a playground. But now that you point it out, you're namecalling above is childish too. I can only conclude that you have nothing to share but insults. Hope the rest of your day is a good one.
I will look at the trial transcript when I have a chance.
Thus, to call someone paranoid tells us little about a person's true frame of mind.
"Let's see her attack occurred in Feb of 1990 - he got the money from the lawsuit in 1992- sounds about right that he would have been a phony during that period of time, so much so that the Schindlers were completely taken in by him. Soon as he goot the money his true colors came through. You people amaze me no end when you defend this man."
"Schiavo clash is rooted in cash
The dispute between Michael Schiavo and his in-laws began when Bob and Mary Schindler said he owed them money, court records show."
"Michael Schiavo sat by his brain-damaged wife, Terri, at a Largo nursing home as he studied for college classes. Schiavo had brought two dozen roses not long after a jury in a medical malpractice case awarded the couple about $1-million."
"Terri Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, walked in. An argument started. With an exchange of heated words, some involving that money, Schiavo's close relationship with the Schindlers ended."
So it's your take only MS is motivated by money and the Schindlers aren't?

Have you or anyone for that matter seen an accounting of all the funds that poured in to save her life?
Follow the money...

How, pray tell, did father Pavone stretch the truth?
I am advocating that man not initiate death, not kill, not judge the worth of another's life for the purpose of deciding whether to kill them or not.
You show the very same blank look of incomprehension that I saw on Juan's face as Brit Hume told him - "Juan - she was not dying". He just could not grasp the difference.
Apparently many here tend to ignore the fact that we are now allowing the state to willfully commit an action that will kill a sick one. This is not our historical action.
The laws have been altered by (WHO THE HECK KNOWS) to permit SOME to allow the removal from life of others.
This is what we call the first steps of nazism. We have the intelligence to recognize the dangers of this and we are speaking out forcefully against it and will continue to do so.
Why? Because I do not intend to quietly sit by while the America I grew up in is altered (BY LAWMAKING BY UNELECTED PERSONS INPUTTING THEIR VIEWS OF WHO GETS TO LIVE AND WHO DOES NOT GET TO LIVE) to totally change the country.
Anyone that does not understand this - in my opinion is blind, ignorant, or on the side of those allowing some to decide the death of others.
This is a travesty to our children and grandchildren and I intend to fight it.
Name calling? If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black about name calling in these threads, nothing is...I'm thrilled you don't want to discuss anything further with me. It makes my day..thank you.

(These aren't the article you are talking about, but they are close.)
Actually, and in front of the whole world, he did kill her.
In fact the stated laws of Florida have the statement that "these laws in no way mean that euthanasia is supported" (or words to that effect).
A bunch of legal cover-up allowing state sponsored killing and it is not euthanasia? Yeah right.
Thought you might like to add this to your knowledge base.

TBO seems to be the net version of the St. Pete Times.
Saved and thank you.
I invite you to do that. You will be embarrassed for Dr. H.
