If Terri Schiavo was a dog or a cat and the "owner" tried to withhold food and water they would soon find themselves in jail.........

Did the dirtbag husband just say that Terri did not want to go on if she was left in a vegatative state, or is there a living will because if there is not these bastard judges made a serious error in granting him the mandate to murder his former wife...

Thank God Bush had the presence to step in and stop the B.S.

These heathen backward evil egalitarian ruminators are going to get a war they never dreamed of if this keeps up.

True, especially in the very liberal counties that are so keen to see people with Terri's disabilities die.

Imagine: if someone were caught starving a dog, that person would be jailed. If he somehow was getting away with it, there are probably 1000 women in my little town alone who would be PMS-ing their way into a frenzy against him, ready to scratch his eyes out.

If the government were starving a child killer or mass murderer, first, France would make him and honorary citizen, universities would shut down in protest, and prison vigils and hand-wringing would be reported for the first 10 minutes of every nightly network newscast.

How many pet owners do you know that try to sustain thier pets via feeding tubes, when their poor health has left them unable to move and to eat?

The term "putting it out of its misery" when referring to an animal is generally taken sadly, but positively - as the proper thing to do. It seems that many here take great delight in trying to sustain Terri Schiavo's misery.
