Do you have proof that her mind & body are gone?

The brain scans are sufficient proof, especially with the associated opinions of virtually all doctors who don't seem to be publicity seekers / self promoters.

So why the rush to kill her and starve her to death??

I don't consider a 10-13 year period (depends on when/why you start the clock) to be a "rush." Also, since I don't consider compliance with her wishes to be 'killing her' it's insulting to me for you to imply that I'd support killing her in any circumstance. The insulting rhetoric often emanating from those with your position is very difficult to deal with civilly.

AND if there was proof that she expressed these wishes .. I may not like it. but I could except it.

The court has dealt with this - with three witnesses that the court found creditable. That is our system. If it came out the other way, I'd accept that, but it didn't. You should accept that.

So I will ask you the same question Glen Beck asked MS's brother Glenn: Do we, as americans, starve handicapped people to death?

I've answered this one a few times here before (other threads maybe?). The short version is: We let the individuals decide for themselves, or their spouse, or their guardian. We don't impose our 'opinions' as 'actions' on them (not my opinion, and not your opinion).

We arrived at the crux of the problem happening here. A large group of 'save Terri' people are trying to force their 'opinion' as an 'action' against what the legal system has determined should be done.

Do you read my post or just read over them?

As for the Court System and accepting it .. then I guess you agree with other decisions the courts have ordered .. like taking property away from people??

Point is .. the courts are not always right

The brain scans are sufficient proof,

What brain scans? Ones flashed on the TV screen by Felos? Did you examine them while he was waving them around? What did they show?
