This is pure evil. Remember the song "We are the World". Americans sent million of dollars to help starving people overseas but yet can't help an American.

The president will see to it she is helped.

I said she could swallow, I didn't say she could chew bread. Ever heard of ensure? How about jello? Broth?

Had any one of those people given Terri the bread & wate on Sunday, Terri would have choked to death.

Your facts are irrelevant here. Now, you better post something about how sad you are or you will be in trouble!!!

>They should given her a lethal injection, once they decided that she must die because Michael wants her to.

>>this is a joke, right? maybe a gas chamber would have been more efficient?

If she has no brain, no feeling, no conscience, and no soul, then what difference would it make? You can't have it both ways. Either starving her to death is cruel and unusual punishment or she has the same status as a potted plant. Which is it for you?

That's right! How dare them do their job! <./sarcasm off>

I was going to craft a response, but i'm speechless, and that can only be because it merits none.

At some point in life, people make a choice between light and darkness. What is extraordinary here is the confluence of people of darkness who are in agreement that this woman must die, and that these people are in "authority" by the will of the people.

Him: "You knew the differance, I'll deal with "His Honor" in a moment. You like Orders, here's one for you, Go to Hell" Him: "Your up next "Your Honor", what do you have to say for yourself?"

Thank you, well said.

Please produce a document that supports your contention that Terri cannot swallow.

I'm a tenacious beotch and will continue asking you until you answer.

A descendant of Jacob, or one grafted in through marriage. And she's even identified as the one on the right...

"I hope there is karma and Michael pays every day of his miserable life for this."

We all are guilty before God. The evil we are seeing in Michael, so too is how God sees the disgust of OUR sinful hearts before God.

Something better than karma is offered all of us: 2000 years ago this very week Jesus Christ bore our due punishment Himself, and although innocent of sin, was put to death on the cross on our behalf.

Only those who believe this action was FOR THEM are given new life, with God coming inside us to live. God in us enables us to love. Michael can't love, because He does not know Christ. He CAN only choose evil.

The Lord tells all of us to repent of our evil, and trust in Jesus Christ's love and forgiveness.

It is amazing that this is happening during the Holy Week. Below is the reading for the Sixth Station of the Cross:

The Sixth Station of the Cross:

Veronica wipes Jesus' face


He who welcomes you welcomes me; and he who welcomes me, welcomes him who sent me. And I promise that whoever gives a cup of cold water will not want for a reward.

A woman named Veronica
kindly washed your face with a towel.
Such a simple thing!
A towel, a cup of water, a loving word.
By your meeting with Veronica, Lord,
help us value such small things,
so great when given in your name.

What law? If there's a law against feeding a human being on the books, I'm not aware of it. Please cite statute and source.

Well, do you think they arrested her on some trumped up charge? I'm sure this woman is not on a pre-approved visitation list, which means she's probably guilty of criminal trespassing.
