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

Posted on 03/26/2005 7:20:40 PM PST by EveningStar

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.

**The Glory of the Lord has departed ,people.**

No, pray, pray, pray.

Ask, Seek, Knock.

We need to keep praying. Don't give up ever.

You sound so heartbroken. Don't cry, Daughter --

Okay, that's it. I'll put you down in the column marked "Friggin' Weirdo".

(That's two in the last five minutes.)

Because when law agencies out bluff one another the turf wars have begun.

The locals chose the judge and it's now their turf

What you're seeing is a TURF/GANG WAR between agencies.

Wait. You may not see it.

Those cops should have put in cuffs at that point.

Not the FDLE tucking and running.

It was a poker play and the bad guys won.

But in this game, there is no second chance.

Simply because you don't want something to happen makes the results of not doing anything go away.

There are consequences for inaction.

Terri dies.

FDLE is cold-cocked.

Gov. Bush is not in charge - Judge Greer is.

I put him in the delusional column as soon as he didn't know an attempt was made to remove Terri Schiavo from the hospice.

Anyone that thinks going into a hospice with Guns blazing is a smart thing to do needs help.

All his future posts will judged accordingly.

You can't fault Bush for lack of balls on the part of the agents in charge of the rescue operation,

Oh wait yes you can, you're myopic.

By pluging the plug I assume you mean turning off a life support system? You don't see a diference between turning off a machine that is keeping someone alive and starving someone to death?

Yeah.

I will preface this by saying I was born again in 1987 - I am obviously not a "Christian-hater" or a "God-hater", but: There are some "Christians" on this board who are some of the meanest, angriest, most bitter people I've ever met in my entire life.

I spent most of my life working in a business not known to attract a lot of Christians - but I am not exaggerating. I have met agnostics, atheists, and just generally confused folks who are far more kind and understanding than some of these people.

That's a problem.

"Hitler" is not an evil word.

He was an evil being; but surely, you knew that.

Not every person (I hope) name Hitler was bad.

But the Hitler I believe you are referring to was evil.

Let me see it is okay and fine that they do that to Terri.
They say it is a peaceful and kind thing that they are doing.

But to say when the time comes I hope they go in the same way is bloodthirsty?

Boy know that is some good logic!

Well, I rebelled early on - abandoned my family's catholic faith and became a baptist... been one my whole life. I'm not a "God Hater" or a "Christian Hater" or any other kind of hater either.

I know what you mean, though. Many self-professed Christians spend so much time trying to determine what is in the hearts of others, that they never look to see what is in their own hearts...

Yeah, it's a problem.

Okay. That is strange, if that's the case.
