TERRI SCHIAVO MARCH 2005 DAILIES Fla's Til of the Hun Sets March Date to Starve Terri
Terri's Fight, The Empire Journal, World Net Daily, Life News ^ | February 28, 2005 | floriduh voter

Posted on 02/28/2005 7:08:08 AM PST by floriduh voter

Terri's Freepers,

Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.

What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.

Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.

If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.

A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.

Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.

What can we do?

1. LOBBY TO SAVE TERRI

2. HELP BUMP THIS THREAD.

3. POST ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT TERRI.

4. VISIT PINELLAS COUNTY FLORIDA AND VIGIL WITH US AT HOSPICE WOODSIDE.

5. VISIT TALLAHASSEE AND LOBBY IN THE HALLS OF THE LEGISLATURE.

6. HOLD A DEMONSTRATION AT THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION.

7. Join the Message Board that freepers started at the Crystal Cathedral/Hour of Power. TELL YOUR CHURCH ABOUT TERRI.

8. Tell your friends that Terri is alert and aware of her surroundings and to visit www.terrisfight.org to see her videos.

9. PETITIONS. We will gather current Petitions here for you. At this time, you can sign a SAVE TERRI PETITION AT www.renewamerica.us. THERE ARE ALSO IMPEACH GREER PETITIONS ABOUT.

Finally, the Pope has no Living Will. He will be SAFE as long as he stays away from George Greer's courtroom. The Pope is in our thoughts and prayers and he knows of Terri. He wants Terri to be freed from oppression and from a painless death by starvation-dehyration.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO EVERY DAY, THE PAY ISN'T VERY GOOD BUT THE FRINGE BENEFITS ARE THE GREATEST. You are Great Americans and liberty is Terri's and freedom from oppression. Freepers, that is the big payoff if we continue our daunting task.

Terri's family is grateful to you and all of your prayers are being heard by the Giver of Life.

This is Terri's Fight and the battle is enjoined. JOIN US TO SAVE TERRI FROM FORCES THAT HAVE BUT ONE GOAL THAT IS AGAINST EVERYTHING AMERICAN.

EVERYONE!

Go to post # 5290, see snippet below, and read about the rally......let's go down on our knees and pray that God blesses this rally and that eyes and ears are opened up all across the world as these terrific people put their hearts out there as witnesses for LIFE!

From the Empire Journal today, a quote from the woman who survived a PVS diagnosis when the doctors said no hope:

“I have a unique understanding of what Terri is feeling”, Adamson says. “I could feel everything that the doctors did to me, and I could do nothing. I was at the complete mercy of others, and they couldn’t hear me”.

GOD BLESS THIS EFFORT!

The aides of one of the co-sponsors of the Bill is worried about whether it will be passed in time. Sensenbrenner, who is always concerned about the wording of Bills and possible ill repercussions, is worried about this Bill and it's effect on Habeus Corpus.

Mel Gibson Weighs in on Terri Schiavo Debate, Supports
by Steven Ertelt
LifeNews.com Editor
March 11, 2005

Clearwater, FL (LifeNews.com) -- Hollywood icon Mel Gibson is weighing in on the national debate over Terri Schiavo and phoned her parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, on Friday to tell them that he supports their efforts to save her life.

Gibson, an actor and movie director, encouraged the Schindler family to "never give up and continue to pray."

Shortly after the phone conversation, the "Passion" director sent a fax with comments to be read at a Saturday afternoon rally supporting Terri.

"I fully support the efforts of Mr. & Mrs. Schindler to save their daughter, Terri Schiavo, from a cruel starvation," Gibson said. "Terri's husband should sign the care of his wife over to her parents so she can be properly cared for."

The Schindlers on Saturday said they were "very grateful" for Gibson's moral support and "encouraging statement" backing Terri.

"He was extremely supportive in our telephone conversation," Terri's father Bob Schindler said. "Mr. Gibson told me he believes there is hope for Terri and that he knows of people in similar circumstances that have improved."

This is the second time Gibson has spokes out about a key issue of interest to pro-life groups. Last year, he criticized a California measure authorizing spending $6 billion in taxpayer dollars on human cloning and embryonic stem cell research.

He said the research methods destroyed human life and adult stem cells should be promoted instead as a more ethical alternative.

Most people seem to think that a legal precedent will be set if Terri is killed. Wesley Smith says the legal precedent was set a long time ago for these kinds of killings, as in the 1970's. Most euthanasia sites also say this.

That is why these kinds of family-killing-member-by-dehydration are so commonplace today. It is only through the Grace of God that Terri is still alive, and the hard work of her parents, Jeb, legal staff, and others behind the scenes.

It is, in fact, nothing unusual at all to kill a family member by dehydration today. The evil behind this is dismayed that the Schindlers have kept them hopping this long and have managed to bring so much light to the subject.

I have two coworkers who allowed their parent or grandparent to die of deliberate dehydration. In the last year, one in another state. Because of dementia or inability to swallow.

For more than ten years, conscious and unconscious cognitively disabled people who use feeding tubes have been legally dehydrated to death in the United States. This intentional life-ending act-clamping feeding tubes and denying all sustenance-has become so ubiquitous that, generally, little attention is paid. This public indifference was shattered by the Terri Schiavo litigation...

Conflicts of interest don't matter in dehydration cases:

"In the Michael Martin litigation, Mary admitted that she had had romantic involvements after her husband's injury. According to the terms of Michael's pension benefits, she would receive substantial benefits if he died but not if they divorced. Yet the trial judge cared not a whit about this blatant conflict of interest when he acquiesced to Mary's request and ordered Michael dehydrated."

"Traditionally, since Jesus Himself was present at his deathbed, St. Joseph's help is also invoked as Patron of the Dying."

So the starvation would begin on his day and end around Good Friday/Easter. Once again, that new age crew picks it's timing well. Some of them might be trying to personally affront God. I wouldn't doubt it.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING MEL GIBSON's COMMENTS!

That is so great.

I just think that ANYTHING that lifts the Schindler's right now is so great.

I cannot imagine their angst. It is impossible to fathom.

Surely, this phone call and written release by someone so full of love for our Father and His Son means a great deal to them, and to all of us.

There is a big difference between choosing to end your life via "assisted suicide" (right-to-die), which is usually based on knowledge and should be signed and notarized statement, so that persons who actually have a terminal illness with extreme pain can chose to end that pain, the forced to die (euthanasia) which is what is proposed in Terri's case. She does not and never did have the right to choose and bearing in mind her religion would not have chosen to die.
This legal precedent will destroy America's ability to enforce human rights embargoes wherein children are being denied education and forced to work in factories and often under hazardous conditions.
This legal precedent will enable nursing homes to terminate the lives of servicemen who have fought for this country and now find themselves disabled.
This legal precedent will enable spouses to terminate each other legally, even without the consent of their spouse.
This legal precedent will enable persons to terminate their children who become ill with cancer or other disease because it is convenient to do so.
This legal precedent will place America on the rolls of those countries engaged in genocide, no different from some of the tribes of the middle east and Africa who are massacring all the men, women, and children of opposing tribes.
This legal precedent will place America in the same status of WWII Germany.
In this respect Michael is right, this is bigger than Terri, it represents who we are as a nation state. Terri has become a symbol of right and wrong, and could become a martyr (sp)in a nation that has lost its soul and its values. I hope someone leaves their roses on the steps of the capitol for all to see, symbolic of a lost nation that needs to find itself again.

Well, here's one. My dad went to a specialist in Virginia named -- are you sitting down? - Dr. Donald Duck. Weird world out there, huh? :)

This legal precedent will enable spouses to terminate each other legally, even without the consent of their spouse.

The legal precedent was set about 25-30 years ago and this happens now quite routinely. It is only when a case goes to court and gets press that it makes it to our view.

It has long been established that a surrogate/guardian can speak on behalf of a family member in the decision to refuse medical treatment. It happens every single day, literally.

Oh, now I understand.

Yes.....we ARE BEHIND the TIMES.

Thank you for such a clear and frightening explanation.

I am begining to see Hospice in an entirely different light.

By way of example, I used to support Planned Parenthood, years ago, but as I learned about its agenda, about its foundations and about the people running it, I became infuriated at the LIES used to cover INTENT.

Hospice is the perfect place to pursue euthanasia because since many of us have had genuinely terminal family members aided by this group, MANY see Terri and others, who are NOT TERMINALLY ILL IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM, as in the same condition.

The starvation and dehydration is pure Hospice ...that is THEIR STYLE of DEATH.

Their foundation states that it is to be used ONLY with those who are in end stage of terminal illness.

These people have LONG SINCE lost interest in eating.

Terri gets HUNGRY.

She is FED.

She digests her FOOD.

And enjoys drink. Fluid. GETS THIRSTY.

How could ANYONE KILL a person who EATS AND DRINKS and LAUGHS WITH HER FATHER AND LIGHTS UP WHEN HER MOM WALKS INTO THE ROOM? HOW COULD ANYONE PUT TO DEATH A WOMAN WHO CLOSES HER EYES WHEN HER PRIEST SAYS, "TERRI, let's pray together!"

How do you STARVE a person who is HEALTHY and NOT CALL IT MURDER?

I am begining to see Hospice in an entirely different light.

A coworker of mine told me the entire story of her mother's killing with dehydration. The first step was her mother being admitted to the hospital for not eating and drinking enough. The coworker was surprised when the mother had not been sent home after being rehydrated, as had happened in the past.

She was there when a woman walked into the room after 3 days and introduced herself as a hospice worker. She gave my coworker a handout about dementia/Alzheimers.
It said that even though the mother was completely aware and cognizant, no coma or brain damage at all, she was not eating/drinking enough because she had Alzheimers.

So they agreed to dehydrate her. I chose to listen to the entire week of symptoms and progression, which I will spare you.

But I thought the entrance of the hospice worker was interesting. It sounds like it is already a well-oiled machine to me.

I believe one of Mel Gibson's daughters is a nun .. he was on Jay Leno the other night publizing the re-edited version of "The Passion of the Christ," -- also mentioned that he took his whole family to Rome on vacation, and that one of his other daughters got engaged in Rome .. that the young man had actually asked his permission. Mel is deeply religious, but his personality and style are very appealing to the masses, which is great. He doesn't force feed people .. his looks, acting skills, public silliness and great sense of humor are what people adore .. and his integrity lies in his faithfulness to his wife and family and the projects and causes he embraces.

Having followed his beliefs, there will be no end to the wealth that will come from his movie .. I understand that it's being considered to now be shown every year around Easter .. so it will continue to be huge moneymaker for him, to the chagrin of the Hollyweirdos and libs.

It does.

And this is where Terri has spent every day, every hour, every second for the last four years and counting. Surrounded by people like the hospice worker who approached you friend....

The hellaciousness of this act...of imprisoning Terri in a hospice, were I one of the Schindlers, would have driven me insane with frustration and outrage.

Surely God has a hand all over this situation...and I LOVE HIM FOR IT! SO MUCH!

Does anyone know if MS and Felos were on Hannity & Colmes last night as planned or did they get bumped by the Atlanta courthouse shootings? I don't see them listed on the Friday schedule of guests on the H & C homepage.
