As they approached, the farmers and their supporters gathered together in front of the entrance and ... began singing hymns to the US Marshals! The marshals were completely taken back. They stopped cold as if though running into a barrier and backed up to their car. Several of those faithful farmers believe that God in Heaven took a hand in their behalf that day

And I belive with that same type of faith Teri's family and a few supporters could walk into that hospice and carry her out. Be it thru the softening of hearts of the officers present, or by the blindness caused by God's mercy I care not.

Exactly.

The story at Klamath did not end there. The federal officers came back in force and took the headgates at the point of a gun...but those God-fearing farmers did not turnt tail and run home. They stayed the course, isolated the fedral officers, pumped water around them...made it clear they were committed to the end, to risk everything to right an obvious and onerous wrong...and ultimately prevailed with God's help.

IMHO it is going to take the saem type of commitment in Florida to right this wrong.
