This was where America showed its present face. Not enough of us took to the streets to demand that an innocent woman must not be put to death. And a slow horrible death, and she disabled, and her family begging for her life.
Yet we are supposed to think that, given a little more time and provocation, we will rise up and fight for gun rights or property rights, or against abortion or socialism, and we’ll have us a Second Revolution to restore what was.
Terri Schiavo was murdered in broad daylight. Her killers are known. They remain free and unpunished. Life goes on. No, we are now dead men walking.

Excellent Post!
I truly believe that America will one day look back on Terri's murder as a defining moment. It certainly showed the Bush family in a whole new light.
Well said and sadly so true.
I agree. Terri’s plight affected me deeply.
Well stated.
Eeeeevil Conservative and I were there in Florida. We were in the same hotel with Terri’s parents and brother and were fortunate enough to be able to speak with them and see their heroism, faith, and courage. I am still badly shaken by this whole thing...it was the most horrendous example of evil.
