Good luck trying to find a jury to convict her of anything. They'll find the same ones who would convict for trespassing, when people are just praying outside of an abortion clinic.

My question is why more people aren't trying this, just to make the statement. They know they can't succeed, but it's an act of civil disobedience.
BTW, does anyone know how many protestors are outside the hospice today?

She will not be allowed nourishment if administered orally?
I guess an IV is out of the questions as well.
I went without water this morning, I did have my coffee. I just gulped down (2) 20 oz. cups of water, and it was like nectar from heaven. This poor lady must be beyond miserable. God forgive them for what they do.

The Dems must now deal with civil disobedience as a result of this decision. It's about time, I'd say. And it isn't just about "dems."

She shouldn't be put to death, but this is about as barbaric a way to do it as possible. It's absolutely heinous to kill someone this way.

But cutting her throat would be murder.
Right?

The police should have arrested Judge Greer for murder. I don't understand how taking water to a human being is a crime. Do you?

Exactly, if someone did that, they would be charged with murder.
But she is being killed all the same by this barbaric starvation method.

Takes a lot of guts doesn't it?
What? Six hefty police officers to arrest a senior citizen?
Now, they too may rot in hell for murder.

I'm wondering how we got to the point where trying to give someone who is thirsty a drink is a crime.
