More than two years after enraging right-wing groups by ordering Terry Schiavo's feeding tube removed, George Greer still peers over his shoulder nervously at times.
In fact, the Florida judge told a rapt audience Friday at the American Bar Association's annual meeting, he even used an alias when he registered at his San Francisco hotel on this trip.
Two years ago, he said, someone in the Bay Area threatened to kill him over his decision to end life support for the brain-damaged Schiavo. And even though that person was prosecuted and jailed, Greer said, he's taking no chances.
"It is a little unnerving," he said. "I still can't see a strange car come down my street without wondering [who's behind the steering wheel]."
Greer talked about he and his wife had to be placed under 24-hour watch after Operation Rescue posted their home address and phone number on its Web site. All of their mail was checked by authorities and on one occasion dead flowers were delivered to their condominium with a note reading, "No Food, No Water" — a reference to Schiavo.
"It got to the point," Greer said, "that we felt a little trapped in our apartment."
You have a twisted version of Christianity swimming around in your little head. He deserves no such forgiveness. He deserves to be punished for being complicit in a murder.

Still, we must admit that a large number of both Floridians and Americans endorse and agree with Judge George W. Greer and his policies.
I think a lot of people were surprised to learn that George W. Greer is a Republican in good standing with his FL party. Many of us had “assumed” falsely that he was just another liberal Democrat going around trying to kill the handicapped.
I am with out a doubt that you have the correct version. Some day I may be as good as you are.
Jesus never talked about forgiveness, so it is only proper to seek vengeance against this Judge.
I hope God puts Greers parents in a comma, for they deserve it for raising such a wicked devil child.
Damn you to hell, Judge Greer.
God Bless you for your kindness, Mr. Rope.
OK, so much for the first sentence of my post. What about the choice everybody has to make in his or her life?
I got your point - Christians are flinty-hearted SOBs. Got it. A lot of preachers are charlatans. Got that point, too.
My point is that you can use the “off” button on your TV and stay away from those judgmental “Xtians” for the rest of your life as long as you accept that Jesus Christ came to provide you — you — with a way to God if you choose.
My thought as well...
Yes indeed he deserves it. We should pray that he suffers in this world and in the next. Simply because he is a bad man.
Holding such feeling of hate towards him, if nothing else makes us better people in the eyes of the Lord. I am sure he is proud of every insult hurled at the Judge, for those who do so are doing His work.
Damn you to hell, Judge Greer.
“we felt a little trapped in our apartment”
I wish him no harm but THE NERVE of this guy who allowed the starvation/dehydration of an innocent disabled human being. THE NERVE! Terri was “trapped” in a little dark inhospitable hospice room and she wasn’t even sick. She’d be alive today being cuddled by her Mom if Judge Greer hadn’t ordered her to be killed.
I will never forget! Never!
Oh, no, don’t tell me we agree on something?!
AM - I have to wonder if the series of posts “Mark was here” has made on this thread, which amount to little more than an expression of his malicious delusions about what Christians really think, feel and believe, are appropriate to stay up on this thread. The lovers of the death cult can easily take his posts and use them to present a false picture of all of us, and of FR.
Good. He’s scared.
I hope Michael feels even worse.
Yes, it would appear so. But, you would be wise to realize that your candidate for President does not, and in fact is one of those politicians who place judicial supremacy over the self-evident, God-given, unalienable right to life.
This is one of the primary reasons I oppose him so strongly.
My point is that this hatred of Judge Greer, makes a mockery of Christianity, and we are better off without it. It is sad that some are just so, so ... I don’t know … they just do not want to see it.
I think it has to do with having so much invested in defining them selves as Terri Supporters, that there is a tunnel vision at work.
