Hello. Terri was isolated so nobody could see that she was really alert and aware, laughed and could identify who came to visit her. She was afraid of jerk Schiavo by her reactions. She knew when they were going to kill her and screamed. The cops threw her real family out of the room plus the family’s attorney and said it “never happened”. The cops were all rentacops paid to lie and bully people.
But you posted #29, trying to re-hash the whole ordeal. And watch your language.
"You're awfully insolent for a newb."
Don't confuse insolence for self-confidence. I've forgotten more on this subject than you've ever learned.
This is a PRO-LIFE forum, we're not here to debate the issue.
I don't happen to agree with you, that's all.
You're still being very evasive about what you disagree with. Why don't we try it again:
Was dehydrating and starving Terri the right and/or legal thing to do?
YES or NO
Is answering a yes or no question really that difficult?
No problem. Bring in all the help you need.
"Or, go bitch about it in an anti-FReeper cesspool"
Whoa! I'm a FReeper and you're the one being anti-social, calling me a "dumbass".
***Don’t confuse insolence for self-confidence. I’ve forgotten more on this subject than you’ve ever learned.***
May I ask which subject that is...insolence, self-confidence, vegetative states or another? It isn’t clear to me which “this” you’re referring to.
No, I posted #29 in response to THIS statement by you:
Terri Schiavo was diagnosed by multiple physicians, including independent court-appointed physicians, as being in a persistent vegetative state.
And watch your language.
Once again, I think you should probably let Jim Robinson know that wagglebee is being mean on a pro-life thread.
Don't confuse insolence for self-confidence.
Fine, we'll just settle on trollish bravado.
I've forgotten more on this subject than you've ever learned.
Somehow I really doubt that (and the stuff I suspect you learned from the WPPFF trolls you should forget), but even so you should have no problem answering my main question to you:
Was dehydrating and starving Terri the right and/or legal thing to do?
YES or NO
Once more, Jim Robinson is the person to talk to if wagglebee is being mean on a pro-life thread.
Now, let's try again, answer this question:
Was dehydrating and starving Terri the right and/or legal thing to do?
YES or NO
Judge George W. Greer, MURDERER.
Evasive is not a word in my lexicon. For the third time, I disagreed with the author comparing Martin Pistorious' condition to that of Terri's Schiavo's. I felt it was an unfair comparison, and I said why.
"Is answering a yes or no question really that difficult?"
Nope. Simply irrelevant.
Your obvious ignorance of what the word evasive means in no way diminishes from the fact that your refusal to answer a yes or no question is evasive.
Nope. Simply irrelevant.
Really, you claimed, "I've forgotten more on this subject than you've ever learned," yet you cannot answer a simple question about whether it was right and/or legal to murder Terri?
Nope. Evasive.
NOBODY who opposed Terri's murder has ever had a problem with saying so.
What does that have to do with the subject of this article? If you can answer that, I'll address your question. Otherwise you're off-topic and should start another thread.
That Manifesto is still valid 10 years later.
Here is the conclusion to what the author wrote:
Recognizing our fallibility, society should err on the side of preserving innocent life. Conflicting hearsay and self-interested decision making should not suffice to end the life of another, as it did in the Terri Schiavo case. The consequences of being wrong are simply too great.
Now, conclusions to editorials are relevant by definition, so I will ask again:
Was dehydrating and starving Terri the right and/or legal thing to do?
YES or NO
I can write a book on it. But it's not relevant. Stay on topic.
Exceprt that you’re wrong. He WAS diagnosed as being in PVS. It was posted on this thread and you ignored the info. So your premise is without merit and comparing him to Terri is quite valid.
He’s a retread. That’s obvious.
You joined FR on December 20, 2014 and you know what the WPPFF is?!
What other identities have you used on FR? I would normally try to guess, but too many names come to mind. What the hell, I'll take a stab at it, are you KDD?
It all depends on whether or not you believe in Living Wills.
If you don't believe that an individual has the right to specify what actions should be taken for their health if they are no longer able to make decisions for themselves, then dehydrating and starving Terri was the wrong and illegal thing to do.
Do you believe in Living Wills?
