Until you can show me just where in the Constitution it says there is a right to die (which is the issue here, not what you think the Constitution says or does not say), maybe you should sit down and shut up.

Michael and co. did not have a right to kill Terri. Period. End of discussion.

Michael and co. did not have a right to kill Terri.

The court ruled that it was Terri's wish not to remain alive under those circumstances. This ruling was upheld at every level of the state and federal judiciary. The question is about the right of people to refuse medical treatment, not about a 'right to kill'.

Rudeness does you and your position little credit, sir.

I have already proven that the Constitution does not exhaustively list all of our rights. Allow me to prove it once again:

Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Her husband had a legal right to treat her PVS in a manner consistent with established medical practice. He did that. Nobody is seriously suggesting that he did something illegal in his choice of treatment. Not even the most virulent Michael-hater. "Period. End of discussion."
