You guys definitely should make a law about it. It´s a horrible situation for the Schiavo family, for the nation and not at last for Terri Schiavos body & soul.
I agree 100%. I'm praying for Terri, her husband, her parents, her siblings.
Unfortunately, this issue has the potential to linger for years. Look what could happen next:
Later today: Federal judge orders the tube re-inserted until issue is litigated in federal courts.Our constitutional democracy is messy, but it's less messy of all the systems around.Two weeks from today: The US House of Representatives passes the federal version of "Terri's Law", already passed by the US Senate. The President will sign it. Federal "Terri's Law" orders a review of the case in federal court.
A year from today: A federal dictrict court makes a decision, which is appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court.
Two years from today: The US Supreme Court makes a decision, but by then, the new "facts" have emerged, creating the need for new motions, and hearings.
2030: Terri dies of natural death, and the US courts are still litigating whether she was in vegetative state.
