I dunno, maybe the same way Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow/Push organization are now looked upon favorably here?
Unlike the murderer on the golf course looking for the real killer......when he only has to look in the mirror to see the murderer......I'd say.
Has anyone mentioned yet that Terri was named after St. Theresa of Avila?
Santo Subito.
If making a huge living means you should believe anything he says, I've got a few more folks you need to start listening to...
Bump.
"You can't argue science with these folk. BTW, one small "bone" to pick with you - I think is quite similar to the grandma situation in that a lot of people with Alzheimer's have feeding tubes pulled every day, even those without living wills. When someone gets to a state where no recovery is possible, only further deterioration, and they are in persistent vegetative states (such as end-stage Alzheimer's), most states will allow the responsible party to decide whether or not to continue a feeding tube."
I will concede that point. The differences to me were a natural, old age, end-of-life situation, versus something traumatic happening in someone's youth, leaving them basically without a chance to recover and trapped for decades in an awful, awful predicament.
I do cede your point that there are similarities, and yes, in those cases feeding tubes are pulled every day. You are right.
I did say I DON'T even agree w/my hubby of 46 yrs., on every little thing.
I don't agree w/everyone on everything that comes down the pike.
I said 'anything.'
I hope is states that clearly enough in his book to leave himself open to a libel suit."""
Well, if what he says is a statement of fact -- i.e., that strangulation can happen in certain ways without leaving evidence -- then he hasn't libeled anyone, he's merely stated a fact of forensic pathology.
Lies need friends. A posse.
I think he does (for the most part), get things right.
No matter, I listen but decide things for myself.
If you have to ask, I can't explain it
If you can't explain it, I can't see that you have any kind of an argument to make.
Investigation of Strangulation Cases A Model Protocol for Maryland Law Enforcement OfficersFurman DOES know more than you in this, so it seems. But YOU CAN CHANGE YOU MIND.Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence
[excerpt]
In a study of 300 strangulation cases in San Diego, CA., over a five-year period, there was a history of domestic violence in 89 percent of the cases. The victims were virtually all women who reported being strangled by their male partners with bare hands, arms, or objects. Interestingly, most cases lacked sufficient evidence of strangulation because there were no visible injuries on the victim or the injuries were too minor or insufficient to photograph. These minor injuries were usually redness and small cuts or scratches on the victims neck.
Go away, you little child.
You bother me.
Change your mind, yet, old man?
The world is upside-down.
I almost feel like I'm on DU reading about how the Ohio recount was rigged to cover up the fact that Bush stole the election.
Incredible.
"These minor injuries were usually redness and small cuts or scratches on the victims neck.
Where is there any evidence of such on Terri when she entered the hospital?
SHOW ME WHERE THIS WAS NOTED AND DOCUMENTED.
So this is the thanks Michael Schiavo gets for ordering an autopsy to determine once and for all if his wife was in a PVS? It all ends with cries of conspiracy, cover ups and lies?
"No good deed goes unpunished" is so true. The guy can't win for losing..
