I see. Now that it's something you want, send in the jackboots?

They were sent in to take Elian - can they be used to save Terri?"

They have to rescue Terri to a professional facility and detain eveyone involved in treating her.

apparently THAT was a justifiable use of police power, but saving a human life is not.

If they could take Elian, they sure can take Terri.

Jeb Bush, where are you? How about the National Guard?

Not without a court order. You wouldn't want your jackboots pleading guilty to unlawful break and entry. In the Elian matter, they had a court order. In this case, it doesn't exist. Just one more example of not following the law because the law happens to be a barrier you have to find some way around it.

that man with the machine gun? I'll bet he still can't sleep at night, or look people in the eye. I wonder if he abuses his wife.
