We the people of the United States of America now are guilty of allowing this kind of death sentence to be carried out – not against murders, rapists and child molesters, but on some of the most disabled in our midst.

I am a "people of the United States of America," and I totally reject this characterization of me as a murderer. The right to end one's own life is the most basic right one has (arguably the ONLY real right one has).

Thanks for posting this JohnHuang2.

Everyone, get the word out! If you're not up to speed on the plight of Terri Schiavo, visit her website. Also, there are several threads full of information on FreeRepublic, do a search. WorldNetDaily and CNSNews.com have also had many good articles.

Please tell the people on your ping lists. And most of all, pray for Terri and her family.

Sorry, but you are all wrong. I live in Tampa and have followed this story for a long time.

I didn't know that M(r)s. Chastain was a medical doctor.

Mrs. Schiavo is not "severely disabled". She is, in fact, in a coma or permanent vegetative state. The real medical doctors have testified in federal court as such several times. She has been this way for the last 13 years!

She does need "artificial life support". It's called a feeding tube. She cannot even be spoon fed because she doesn't have the ability to swallow her food. If spoon fed, the food would enter her lungs and create infection.

The eye movement, shouting, etc. has been determined, again by real doctors several times, to be impulsive.

Mrs. Schiavo's parents should let their daughter go with dignity and not keep her artificially alive. They will never be able to have any kind of real relationship with their daughter ever again. IMO, they are hung up on their son-in-law not collecting the life insurance money when she does die. Yet, he has said time and time again that he would donate ALL of the money to charity if he ever received any insurance settlement.

Mr. Schiavo simply wants to let his wife die with dignity THE WAY SHE WANTED. That is what he promised her when she was still alive and well. He is only carrying out his promise.
