Congratulations. After a couple of posts, you still have failed to back up your original assertion. Since reading comprehension seems to escape you, let me ask again. Do you care to point out precisely where in the Constitution it says that a husband has the right to starve his wife to death? Can you please tell us where in the Constitution it says that in controversies involving life and death decisions, we should error to the side of death? Can you please tell us where in the Constitution it says what the IQ level of a person is before they loose their human rights?

You pointed out a couple of lines in the Constitution about due process and appropriate legislation.

That does not answer my questions, it only raises new ones. Didn’t Terri have a right to a trial by a jury of her peers? Didn’t Terri have protection against cruel and unusual punishment? What crime did Terri commit that warranted the death penalty?

I believe those passages in the Constitution are right next to the ones condoning the drowning of kittens.

Yes, I did. You and other posters are pretending you're arguing the case before the Supreme Court--you're not. They REJECTED the case.

She didn't commit a crime, why would she have this right?

Didn’t Terri have protection against cruel and unusual punishment?

Yes.

What crime did Terri commit that warranted the death penalty?

She didn't receive the death penalty. She wasn't 'executed'. No I can see why some are so emotional about this - they believe Terri was executed for a crime she didn't commit. How ridiculous.
