LAST MONTH/NOV TERRI DAILIES THREAD -- http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1264875/postsCurrent project: Please sign TERRI’S BIRTHDAY CARD -- http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1283113/posts.
Send your own birthday cards to Terri at http://www.Terrisfight.org -- tuck in a small check if you are able, it will be so greatly appreciated.
This is a busy time of the year for us all. Please keep Terri and her family and their efforts in your prayers and check by/bump this thread periodically and PLEASE SIGN TERRI’S BIRTHDAY CARD.
If it isn't their life hanging in the balance, judges at any level would rather choose death, wouldn't they, (even though the most vulnerable should have the best protections).
A "Terri Supporter" is anyone who has tried anything to HELP to try and save the life of this disabled woman from being further victimized, exploited and denied her constitutional and legal rights -- even for the next minute.
Terri Schiavo at no time, and in no way said that 'she would not want to live this way so make me dead'. Nor did she say to criminally deny me all therapies such that I am prevented from getting better and having to live this way because of no therapies. Terri certainly knew then and may very well know now that these acts to harm are a violation of her Catholic faith and teaching, criminal and would also be 'suicide words' that would and do require assistance.
To do that, to act on those kinds of suicidal based *wish words, is a Life Felony crime in the state of Florida. And that is what the Felosers want for all of us through this victimizing of Terri.
The efforts of grassroots Terri Supporters, which could be now a billion dollars worth of volunteer hours, while seemingly intentionally blocked by public officials of all types, nonetheless, has only caused a digging in deeper state of resolve by The People, to stop these merchants of deathmaking -- the MoD's goal of using vulnerable victims like Terri Schindler-Schiavo for the furtherance of their bigger agenda -- in using government bodies to destroy our constitutional Right To Life by securing Legalized Euthanasia for them upon us all.
These greater conspired and corrupt activities are just the kinds FORBIDDEN as fs876 Crimes Against the Public that rise to levels warranting charges of treason, anarchy, subversives and murderers.
What are the avenues afforded by the public to seek its Relief and Redress, on behalf of a fellow citizen being illegally caged, kidnapped and exploited, when OUR own public servants ignore the evidences of committed crimes and pleas for active protection of a citizen so outrageously and heinously oppressed?
FV SAYS: This opinion piece on but I have only excerpted same. It is my belief that LOBBYING IN PERSON IS ANOTHER AVENUE WE MUST TAKE if we are stonewalled in other attempts to get justice for Terri. This writer whom I have posted here suggested emails, phone calls and lobbying "in person". That of course depends upon where we are and other logistics.
Please sign up at fight4terri@aol.com. A new project is being set up to contact Pat Boone through that email address. If you google PAT BOONE, he's familiar with similar circumstances to Terri's.
BUMP to 337
Thanks for the bump! It is 59 degrees in Terriville tonight.
This thread 330 and 333 re: nominating Terri's Freepers as a group for Private Citizen Category. Freepmail: eagle awards 2004 (screen name).
Will do fv. God knows you all deserve it!
I wish there were some way to sneak into that cell and whisk her away - far, far away from Michael.
There's a maxim of law pertaining to preservation of life which (to the best of my knowledge) no written law has rendered illegal or unlawful. For example, a person or persons is/are lost in a forested area and encounter an unoccupied cabin (perhaps with provisions). To avoid perishing because of exposure or lack of sustenance, breaking into the cabin is "excused". Compensation for property damage is required, but criminal charges are typically waived due to circumstances.
I was not aware until very recently that this picture of Terri was taken approximately one year after her collapse. The picture demonstrates, without any doubt, that PVS is a totally inaccurate conclusion.
I hear the Dr. Laura program every day from noon to 3 PM here in California. I remember her talking about Terri once -- convinced by the biased and inaccurate reporting that Terri is irretrievably brain-damaged. She has a huge audience. I haven't been successful reaching her, but it would be a great coup if someone/anyone could convince her of her inaccurate conclusion.
I completely agree with you that far more than Terri's future or the future of Floridians is at stake here. The implications are immense, but a SCOTUS rejection of Gov. Bush's appeal isn't a guarantee that your Florida legislature will generate another bill protecting disabled citizens. My best guess is that a SCOTUS rejection combined with economic considerations will be a strong disincentive for your legislators.
The remaining options would be enormous public outcry, which would have no viable affect on Judge Greer, or someone (many someones?) filing an appropriate Writ of Mandamus or/and Quo Warranto action(s) concerning Greer's lack of title to the office, perjurious affidavit and years of compensation to which he wasn't entitled.
If there's SCOTUS rejection, Felos and HINO will then see to it that matters proceed very swiftly. So, I hope and pray that Terri's parents and concerned Floridians will be ready to immediately file and pursue the only remaining legal action, complaint and maneuver available to save her life.
They do not want to open a pandora's box wherein many heads would roll.
Keep in mind that Florida's House & Senate is overwhelmingly GOP, even more than before the Nov. 2nd election. The members from this area overwhelmingly supported Terri or helped draft Terri's Law. They just didn't go far enough - they should have DONE OVER the exit protocols and remove the law that says that nutrition and dehydration is MEDICAL TREATMENT AND ARTIFICIAL. That was JABA THE HUT, JIM KING'S LEGACY and he's no longer the President of the Fla Senate. Tom Lee, who was for Terri's Law, is now the President.
Jim King is still around but term limits forced him out of the presidency. He's in the Hospice Hall of Fame and that doesn't surprise me at all that he's in it and that they would EVEN HAVE A HALL OF FAME for advocates of killing the disabled or the elderly or anyone who cannot use the English language to communicate.
There was one case where the docs thought this woman was speaking gibberish and so they were going to euthanize her. An attendant or nurse happened by and recognized that the lady was speaking Polish, not gibberish. That chance meeting saved the woman's life.
There are many other ways to communicate besides language. Look at Stephen Hawking who has one of those computer generated voices w/a keyboard. There are also cards the size of placemats where the person lacking speech can point to the picture or to the yes or no to respond. Terri it has been said did use eye blinks for yes or no. It's no wonder she's confined in one room. Can't let anyone see that she's not as she's been portrayed by husband's side.
Terri's always trying to talk and her dad and the Monsignor make her laugh. She's tender with her mom, sis and niece. Terri's a sweet person who needs proper care that Hospice isn't licensed to provide. They are not licensed for rehabilitation. Keep Terri at Hospice and she is not rehabbed at all. She is in limbo until she is in a rehab facility.
I'm posting to the thread, not directing any of this specifically your way but people lurking here need to know these things which the LOCAL media does not report.
Many rescue fantasies come and go. We'll continue our call to action until Terri is safe and out of the clutches of the mean men in black robes and the lawyers who believe that they are god. New agers are behind this scheme against Terri. They got her money, they still want her. It's like an old Vincent Price movie in many ways.
You too...

I think I'm still a member from Jeb's 2002 race but there's no way I remember my password.
THIS IS AN OPTIONAL PROJECT. Thanks, floriduh voter
"people lurking here need to know these things which the LOCAL media does not report."
No doubt. Even if the truth about Terri and relevant issues were accurately reported, a certain amount of recitation is necessary.
"They do not want to open a pandora's box wherein many heads would roll."
Governmental elitists are always concerned and watchful to foil citizen attempts that will hold their feet to the fire vis à vis their own adherence to laws. But carefully composed, well-structured and legally sufficient complaints can defeat such efforts, despite extreme resistance.
As for the political views of the current roster of Florida legislators, thanks for letting me know. Sounds like there's more sympathy there for Terri than I could know about over here on the West Coast.
As a former Valley Girl, I can relate.
