After Defeats Schiavo Parents Tell Supporters Go Home
AP - Yahoo ^ | March 26, 2005 | Jane Sutton

Bob and Mary Schindler, both practicing Catholics, urged dozens of supporters gathered outside the Florida hospice where Schiavo is being cared for to go home for Easter.

"The family would request that everyone go home, be with your children, hold them close and share every moment you have with them," said Brother Paul O'Donnell, a Franciscan monk who is a spiritual adviser to the Schindlers.

It was not clear if the Schindlers had finally abandoned all legal avenues in their fight to restart their 41-year-old daughter's feeding, a cause that embroiled the Florida legislature, the U.S. Congress and President Bush.

I can't believe she is still conscious after 8 days. She is crying. She knows she is being killed.

The difference is, we cam actually work to change bad laws in this country. I don't think the people of Nazi Germany had that capability.

You're including me among those who are flinging hellfire and brimstone? Or you're including me among those who've been on the receiving end of it? Neither would be so.

At any rate, our perceptions are clearly different. I have monitored most of the Terri threads, although I haven't posted on a lot of them. From what I've seen, the largest portion of crap slinging is from those who unquestioningly support Judge Greer's findings. YMMV

Actually I attempted a reasonable converation and was meet with belittlement, ridicule and insults. LOL, surprise surprise. Doesn't brother me as that is a pretty good indication that I am doing a good job of driving home the debating point I think are relevant. However one should not mistake passion for lack of understanding the issue or the stakes, in fact the oppose might often be the case.

If 65 percent said robbery and rape are okay, would that make those acts okay?

Actaully he did send The FDLE to remove her for the DCF, however because of the Local Police department they weren't able to remove her.

No problem. Posted #525 before I read your correction. I fear it's later than we think. Have a good Easter and goodnight.

Did one of you guys call Shiavo supporters in general "narrowminded" and "hateful"? Someone is being accused of that here.

if 65% said that, we would be in real trouble....they are not saying they want her to die.....again, you misread due to emotion or something....they say they want this handles as family matter and husband has first call......i know youdon't agree, but that is what they say

See #405.

Chad, Chad, Chad..

You are interesting.

You do believe Terri is being executed.

Just not murdered...????

And you do believe she's an innocent woman.

Just not murdered...????

So...

You do believe she's an innocent woman getting executed.

Just not murdered...????

Uh...Are you a LAWYER by some chance?

The defense of Jeb Bush hings on weather Jeb did all one can reasonably expect a strong pro life governor do to. In my mind it is not credible that a county probate judge can overrun the US Congress, US President and State governor. It may be true, but I don't believe it.

The media may be calling this a "death watch", but I see the wait for Teri to die as watching the countdown on a time bomb....

...and when the timer hits zero, Lord help those who pushed for her death...

...and those who stood by & offered only lip service (i.e the Bushes).

Things are about to get ugly. Be careful out there...

Well, he also thought I was quoting him and called me a liar, when I wasn't talking about him at all. They must have told him that, too.

I've been pretty clear on my position, so if you can't figure it out by now, then perhaps the problem doesn't lie with me, but rather with you, and it's something you need to deal with on your own.

Good luck.

You are so correct.

And too many people are blind.
