What did we do? All of those who say they support Terri, who work for any govt. in any capacity could have gone on strike (call in sick) the moment that tube was removed. That would have had an effect. It could bring both the state and country to a standstill. The truly dedicated could have begun a complete fast outside the hospice the moment the tube was removed. That would have shown the world what dehydration really looks like.
I'm not condemning anyone when I was not willing to step up and risk my livelihood or health in an attempt o soften the hard hearts of mammon. True, both are extreme measures. but we can't just sit back and expect our leaders or even God to act. Sometimes we must act. Failing that we , at least, must not judge.
I think a lot of us were ready to take dramatic action last weekend, but then it looked like Congress and the courts were going to rectify the injustice. By the time we realized that it was all a sham (on the part of the courts, at least), in many ways it was too late. I would still like to see mass vigils or action, if anyone has ideas.
