I think it's possible the law you want enforced applies to a different set of circumstances. Otherwise, a county prosecutor could bring charges against those responsible for a crime, and that hasn't even been suggested by anyone who knows what they're talking about.

It seems pretty black-and-white, denying food to a disabled adult is felony manslaughter.

Chapter 765 HEALTH CARE ADVANCE DIRECTIVES specifies conditions under which "life prolonging procedures" need not be provided, but it's a stretch to say that withholding of food or nutrition via feeding tube is a "life prolonging procedure".

Given all of this, and the fact that the felony manslaughter will soon be completed without intervention, a very rational legal basis for calling up the National Guard exists.

I have read here that under Florida law, a feeding tube is considered artificial life-sustaining equipment. (Peach, can you please confirm?)

I think this is just as crazy as you do - believe me. But I don't think it's illegal under Florida law...and that's the real problem.
