>> Few people have ever been given the protection and consideration of the law that Terri had.

Lucky Terri! All the law did for her was confine her to a windowless cell for years, embezzle her entire trust fund, and put her to a horrendous death by torture. It wouldn't even let her have Holy Communion.

It's almost more due process than a person can stand.

If the most despicable child rapist-murderer on the planet was confined to a cell for two weeks and deprived food, water and religious sacraments, every human rights organization in the world would be up in arms and rightly so.

From the Florida State Constitution:

"SECTION 2. Basic rights.--All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life and liberty, to pursue happiness, to be rewarded for industry, and to acquire, possess and protect property; except that the ownership, inheritance, disposition and possession of real property by aliens ineligible for citizenship may be regulated or prohibited by law. No person shall be deprived of any right because of race, religion, national origin, or physical disability."
