"Judge George Greer continues to travel the lecture circuit despite his controversial ruling..."

Huh? Is there anything in the rules which would prevent him from being invited to speak?

Only in the minds of those who would give the state veto power over family medical decisions.

Judge Greer exercised veto power over Terri Schiavo's medical decisions, and over the jury's decision. He overturned the jury's decision to award the money for Terri's care. He diverted those funds to her estranged husband and his lawyers, for the purpose of overturning Terri's medical decisions.

The state also vetoed Terri's medical decisions. They were charged with upholding her rights, but they trampled all over them.

I do not believe the state, or any government agency, has the right to overturn any citizen's constitutional rights.

Judge Greer is speaking out in favor of the jury system, while standing by his right to break numerous laws in the process of overturning that very system.

Or those who would allow a summary execution without a trial by a jury of peers for the accused...

Death Lawyers stealing Terri's rehab money, stopping her rehabilitation and killing Terri were NOT family medical decisions. How many family medical decisions require the aid of the ACLU? Are you a fan of the ACLU? They were at counsel's table for the death lawyers.
