Tampa Bay Online ^ | 9-15-03 | some very sick florida news station

[MarMema]

Please freep the poll as a show of force against the sickos at the station who are asking people if Terri's feeding tube should be removed.

Thanks for your help. It is at the bottom right.

I have read the pathologist's report on Terri. Based on her word alone, I would vote not to have the feeding tube removed. While Terri's quality of life might seem dismal, it's her life and she is entitled to therapy and the proper care.

[stanz]

Freeped. it's 51 yes and 48 no.

[Ronin]

Freeped. Needs more help though. The ghouls are slightly ahead.

"it's her life and she is entitled to therapy and the proper care."


IT'S HER LIFE.


So TRUE. Terri doesn't BELONG to Michael. She is NOT HIS POSSESSION, to DISCARD when HE feels like it.

SHE HAS AN INHERENT RIGHT TO LIVE. The Declaration of Independence calls it "unalienable". NO judge has the power to take this right away. She is not a condemned prisoner, or an enemy in combat. These are the only exceptions, along with self-defense, for taking a life.
Period.

THAT's the simple TRUTH, and everything else is a LIE.


Judge Greer, examine your conscience!

BUMP

[Sir Charles]

Now 50% to 48% yes. Diff due to rounding

[nickcarraway]

I can't believe yes is still ahead.

In the scope of everything that has surrounded the case of Terri Schindler Schiavo, it saddens me to see that those of us who are outraged at what is unfolding before our very eyes, we must resort to pumping up the numbers on an online poll for some Tampa Bay television station in order for us to feel like we are contributing to her well-being. This poll means nothing and has no real value (as blunt and uncaring as that may sound). Rather than feel good about ourselves afterward for deflating the number of "Yes" votes in favor of her feeding tube to be removed by our barage of "No" votes, couldn't something a bit more constructive be done? Such as organizing a march, protest, sit-in, writing campaign (which has been done), maybe even finding out where Michael Schiavo lives (posting his address/telephone number/email address/other personal info on the Free Republic site and possibly staging some sort of protest in front of his house). Granted, everyone who voted (myself included) has their hearts in the right place, but come on folks, this is just a poll. Get out there and DO something about this. If Terri is indeed removed from the feeding tube by order of the judge in this case (I dread the thought), and eventually succumbs to death by dehydration/malnutrition, EVERYTHING must be done in order to see that Michael Schiavo is brought before a court of law concerning the circumstances surrounding the intial cause of her condition (which is in all appearances a botched murder attempt on his behalf). I mean don't let this guy get one minute of rest. No more O.J. Simpson bullsh*t. No more Scott Peterson bullsh*t. No more Robert Blake bullsh*t. Nip this thing in the bud. Nail this guy and nail him good.

Take care,

Yep, that's what we're all doing here, trying to light a candle in the midst of a howling storm of darkness.

Everytime I return to that site and vote "No", I say a little prayer.

[Front 242]

Thanks Katnip. I appreciate the heads-up on the thread you posted. Justice needs to be served if indeed Terri does perish due to Michael Schiavo's tactics. No rest for the wicked. Just keep praying for a miracle and that Michael's heart of stone will give in to Terri's family.

Take care and PEACE,

"OH that is heartbreaking...do you know his name?"

Yes - his name was Tony Bland. He received his injuries when he was crushed in a crowd at a football (soccer) match.

There was so much press coverage about it over here when he died that there are probably still articles on the web.

[Desdemona]

Yes, there is something that can be done. Pray for her. Pray for her family. And pray that God, in the end sees justice done.

It may not be in our way, in our sight, or in our opinion appropriate, but God will take care of it. If one does not trust God that this happen there is no love to faith.

No matter what happens, God is in control, remember that.
