How can you claim due process took it’s course [sic] without recognizing the fact that the process that was due was more than just making a decision without respect to the evidence, and standing by that decision. Words mean things. "Due" has a meaning in the phrase "due process." Shuffling papers and doing anything you damn well please in violation of the law can be a process, but it's not due process.
It's true that we don't know, for an absolute fact, whether Michael knew the wife’s wishes better than the family did, but we do know that he testified in court that he had to become a nurse in order to fulfill the promise she got from him, to take care of her for the rest of her life, which he expected would be several decades. His testimony was that he promised to care for her until she died of old age. He didn't say that he promised to cut that life short. He said he promised to take care of her for all of those many years. Do you think he lied about that?
What lesson are you claiming Terri lacked? That it was her fault she was murdered, because she didn't protect herself well enough? Because she didn't fill out the papers which might one day become popular, but which in her day were only filled out by people wanting something in complete violation of everything she held dear? Papers which no one who wanted what she wanted would have filled out? It's her own fault, because she caused Michael a burden by not taking legal steps to prevent him from murdering her? Terri was the one who did wrong by Michael, because she created a burden, and dumped that burden on him? I guess that explains why he called her a bitch, and lamented "When is that bitch going to die?"
This is not being brought up again NOW. You must have been under a rock for the past several years not to know that Terri has been in the news since before Michael announced his plan to kill her. She's been in the news ever since. This is nothing new. And it isn't going away. As long as you and your kind continue to push for expanded powers to murder people, you should expect vocal opposition.
We will not be silent.
We are your bad conscience.
The White Rose will give you no rest.
