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.
Me thinks, your problem is that your constitution has to deal with situations nobody thought of it 220 years ago. I´m not in the position to think about it, but I´d say it´s time to reform it. E.g. our Art. 1 says the dignity of every human is untouchable, it´s binding for all state authorities and even in civilian life.
