"I'm not going to even bother with downloading it, since they can override it anytime they please. I think the crucial thing that lets them get away with this is that they have legal immunity. Remove that, and they'd change overnight."

Sadly, history has proved that you are correct. They do what they please.

"That they do. They just want to kill as many people in as many ways possible. The difference here is that no one is forced to get an abortion. At least not yet."

I don't know why the left has this obsession with killing.

Also, while the woman is not forced (yet), the preborn baby has no choice.

So much for the abortion advocates being pro-choice...

Thanks. We will find out more soon.

The family will try to get as much info on what happened as they can. For one, some incision was made and got infected immediately with one of the hospital reenforced bacteria and they packed him with antibiotics. That along with the sedation must have started the cascade, chain reaction building after the sedation. Details are still fuzzy and the family is so devastated they can hardly focus. One thing they have concluded though is that the fatal procedures were unnecessary. They may try to get the details of the initial event and present it to another doctor hypothetically for a second opinion.

Powerful reminders of details of that fateful day from Father Pavone...

Recalling Terri's last moments Fr. Pavone said that as she lay dying, having not had even a sip of water in over two weeks, he put his hand on her forehead and when he moved his hand a little he touched a vase of flowers filled with water.

"Do you know that police officers were standing over that bed at every moment, every moment - armed police officers - making sure we didn't dip our hands in that water and put it on her tongue," he said vehemently, vividly recalling the scene. "Armed police officers enforcing the culture of death."

Snip

And he urged pro-life activists to continue the battle for life, realizing that the victory has already been won by Christ who has conquered death.

As to Terri, he said, "I assured her of your prayers . . . You were there in that room, you could cut the air with a knife so palpable were your prayers and your concern and your thoughts and the love of the whole pro-life movement . . . you were there and we told Terri you were there . . . and we prayed and we sat in silence . . ."

Fr. Pavone: Terri Shiavo's Room was "Thick" with Prayers and Thoughts of Supporters. "Terri Schiavo Would not Have Been Killed Unless Millions of Unborn Had Been Killed First"

Tales from the dark side...

Los Angeles, CA (LifeNews.com) -- Circuit Court Judge George Greer continues to make the rounds on the lecture circuit following his high-profile involvement in the Terri Schiavo case. The judge, who refused to back down from sentencing Terri to a painful 13-day starvation and dehydration death, will be a featured speaker at Loyola Law School Los Angeles in June.

However, this speaking engagement may be worse than the others as Judge Greer will instruct members of the mainstream media in how to report on significant legal stories like the battle over Terri's life.

Helen Valois article from Renew America...

As we repeat, "We will not be silent. We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will give you no rest."

Last July, a number of UWEC Resident Assistants (RAs) received a letter from the campus administration. One of them, Lance Steiger, realized that the letter's instruction to leave off holding Bible Studies — studies that were voluntarily attended, and organized on the RAs' own time — was discriminatory, and decided to do something about it. He contacted FIRE, a group dedicated to the advancement of authentic academic freedom, something in short supply on today's "pluralistic" college campuses.

The struggle between Steiger and the administration took nine months and a lawsuit it resolve. UWEC's response to FIRE's letter last Fall, spelling out what FIRE considered the Constitutional violations in the administration's position, was met with a strengthening of the administration's anti-Bible study policy. Additionally, the administration sought to hide behind the policy decisions of the UW System as a whole, stating its powerlessness to do anything about the situation unless the whole System made a policy decision first. Sounds familiar, doesn't it — like Harry Blackmun's assertion in Roe that the Court had no competence for deciding when life begins; like Jeb Bush's pathetic hand-wringing in the face of the starvation/dehydration of Terri Schindler-Schiavo. The right to trample upon other people's rights always seems to be coupled with the disavowal of any means of countering this trend.

Snip

So, as I personally happen to know very well, the present expression of the culture wars on campus has been brewing for a long time. One is reminded of the words of the White Rose resistance group in Germany, comprised of a group of students in Munich who lost their lives in speaking out against the National Socialist philosophy and regime. The Scholls and their confreres give us a glimpse of the state of education in a holocaust society in their last leaflet, where they write:...

Have you heard what happened at UW-Eau Claire?

More on Mrs. Vo's Fight, amplification on Lesforlife's post, from ProLifeBlogs...

.......................

The reports we've received concerning Mrs. Vo's case are troubling and we will be closely watching the actions of St. David's North Austin Medical Center. Hopefully, the hospital will continue to work with the family to meet the medical needs of Mrs. Vo rather than using futile care laws to purposefully end her life.

Here's a little background on Mrs. Vo:

Yolang T. Vo was born in Vietnam. She was a young mother when Saigon fell. Her husband was an officer in the South Vietnamese Navy. After the Communists took over, they put her husband in a re-education camp. Yolang worked her fingers to the bone to earn enough money to bribe guards so that her husband could escape the camp. After his escape, the couple fled from Vietnam on a rickety boat with other "boat people" in 1979. They came to America, where Yolang continued to work hard so that she could bring her young daughter out of Vietnam to America. She achieved that in 1981. She also helped her sisters and the rest of her family escape the Communists to come to America. Yolang's family reveres her.

>> "Based on the intense scrutiny and media coverage generated by the Schiavo case, Judge Greer will bring a unique perspective to the journalists in attendance," Loyola said

Greer's "perspective" isn't "unique" among trial lawyers or in insane asylums. It isn't exactly unknown in the journalism biz either.

FLORIDA'S POPULARITY AS A TOURIST DESTINATION IS TANKING....They are blaming the hurricanes. B.S. Word is out that Florida kills people. Terri, Ted, Martin and many more.

What did I say on March 31, 2005? "Florida will be punished." I didn't set out a strategy but here we go.

The boycott of Florida started when Florida boycotted Terri.

All I know is that a lot of capital was wasted on this fight...I sure wish they had used it on Social Security Accounts instead of falling over each other to get on television in the House/Senate--oh wait, what am I thinking, NO ONE ever wants to solve the issue they just want the issue...

Silly Rabbit, Trix are for Pols....

Martin Anderson update: The Sheriff of Panama Bay is riled because they are getting phone calls to fire the Director of the Death Boot Camp. He made a smarmy comment about having more important work to do than to field phone calls from students!

When justice is denied, justice is demanded. I hope they keep calling and they shouldn't forget to call Jeb. These SHERIFF DEPUTIES AND THE NURSE SHOULD BE BOOKED in addition to being put on administrative leave.

Martin didn't get a second chance, why are these child smotherers not being held to account?????

Oops, I forgot, this is Florida, where it's okay to starve/dehydrate, rob, smother/beat innocent people. Oh, and TASER them to death too.

I have some family out that way. I have already warned them to beware when they see the bleach blonde monster. You never know when or where he might go off. I wonder if Jodi's having buyer's remorse yet.

Last night's message: My fellow Americans, welcome the invasion and SUBMIT!

When Vicente Fox lvs in a few months, the communistas are going to take over Mexico. Then what? Where do we go when America becomes Mexico? Not a concern of this administration. Where will I emigrate to when the US becomes a third world cesspool?

I'm joining www.minutemanproject.com. Today.

The bioethicking harvesters open the chest cavity and yank out the beating heart of the so called brain dead donor.

We know how the term brain dead has wide variations as to its definition.

All we need do is read up on Edgar Allan Poe. What is done now to VICTIMS used to be scary fiction in early Americana.

The media can't stop lying can they? ENDEARED Jeb???? I can't stand him. He's his mommy's little boy. After the family meeting, he abandoned Terri. Jeb rescued Terri in 2003 and abandoned her in 2005. TALK ABOUT A FLIP FLOPPER.

MEDIA LIE ABOUT CONSERVATIVES LUVIN' JEB...

"But his moves endeared him all the more to Christian conservatives."

(I wrote him off after all of his lies, false promises, game playing with the State Attorney and the M.E. after his move to abandon Terri).

Conservatievs should KNOW THAT JEB BUSH did a phony investigation of MICHAEL SCHIAVO that cleared Michael of all wrongdoing. Jeb and Michael Schiavo know something that we don't know and IMO, Mikey attacking the GOP is part of their deal to give Jeb some breathing room with conservatives.

Oscars for all.

Media statement? "Perhaps no crimes occurred in either case, but the public -- and the family of the dead teen -- have a right to know all the facts."

8mmmauser, the media is setting up the public for the big let down that Martin will not get justice. This is a Terri redeux. The media is working with the State of Florida in yet another coverup.

Glad tourism is down here because justice is nowhere to be found.
