Tell that to Judge Greer. He has allowed speculation on this case for years.
You got that right. I live in Longmont, much to close to the "sin city" of CO.
The only people who claim that Terri expressed a wosh to die all have the same last name: SChiavo.
It was posted earlier on this thread that Mother Schiavo was also put to sleep by her caring 3 children.
What the liberals and liberal appointed judges are doing here will again have ramifications in future society.
This is bringing society closer to killing the handicapped or elderly based on something other than their natural time coming.
I figure the insurance companies love this, because if they can kill people, their liability is lessened.
This is the culture of death who's birth was around the legalization of abortion on demand IMO.
Greer, what kind of name is that? That ain't no kraut name, is it?
No, that is testimony....just like the testimony of the other two witnesses.
Mother Schiavo had a living will and had made her wishes known. Following her wishes is much more humane than keeping her alive to suffer as long as possible.
The other fantasy concocted by the media is that she will not suffer. They bring in doctors to harp about "the end of life" and how there isn't pain, etc.
Of course this only takes place with people suffering organ failure and have no further will to live. The brain stops sending warning signs (read: pain) when malnutrition is occuring. A living, otherwise healthy (read: no organ failure) person will be governev by survival instincts. The brain will send message after message after message (read: pain) to any and every part of the body affected, to tell Terri to eat or drink something quick.
There is a MASSIVE difference. People will drink their own urine to survive if stranded in the desert. Terri is not "dying". Her body will respond to malnutrition accordingly.
This is the real danger and tragedy of the Terri Schiavo case. When a people, a society, chooses to value death over life, where it uses that as a pretext to kill those deemed "unworthy" or "useless" or "vegetative", and uses the political cover of "choice" or "spousal rights" to justify such heinous acts, then it is a short step to a larger holocaust. We see it today in Europe, where doctors pro-actively kill newborns that they deem "defective" or "deformed", with no consideration of anyone else's wishes. In the past, most reasonable people would recoil at such a prospect. But, here, today, on FR and elsewhere, we see those who are absolutely driven to an extreme in advocating the death of Terri Schiavo, simply to show, as a test case, that it can be done. Because they know it opens the door just a little wider, giving them just a peek, into a future wherein human life simply becomes another issue to be decided by those who hold the power.
not cool.
Tell me I'm wrong, and I'll tell you exactly why I am not.
You don't know me so you have no basis on which to judge my faith, but you're fee think what you wish. I'll look you up when we're in heaven, and see if you still question it then. Until then, you just don't know.
Hahahahaha!!! I like you name too!
That one is pretty transparent. The doctors dope her up with morphine. If there was no suffering, morphine would not be indicated.
I am tired of hearing about this stupid story, just end it now! Please.
huh?
The FBI had not investigated Case , yet !!!!!

NEED TO GET CASE OUT OF FLORIDA!!!ASAP
