Why would ANYONE interfer in a family decision? And why is Fred Thompson being discussed about what happened? He has expressed his opinion which people can agree with or not.
Shouldn’t have anything to do with his being a candidate.

Well, for one, a family has no right to murder someone. And then secondly, as far as Thompson is concerned, it does have to do with him being a candidate, in that I won’t be voting for him on that basis. So, it does figure into the “candidate equation”...

"Why would ANYONE interfere in a family decision?"

Just what spontaneously comes to mind:

(1) "Inalienable right to life" --- "...to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men" -- do these phrases sound familiar? Are they relevant to the purposes of government?

(2) What part of Terri Schindler Schiavo's family? Her estranged, trust-fund-embezzling, adulterous husband who wanted her dead? Or her parents, brother and sister who upheld her right to simply go on living (and were willing to pay for it)? And

(3)Shouldn't the government stay out of this, specifically the County Probate Judge (!) who (by what authority?) ordered her death by starvation/dehydration?
