Why should either of them donate it to charity? Aren't we capitalists?

Remember the headstone he put up for Terri? He got what he wanted, he won....if he had a shred of decency left he would go quietly into the night and maybe actually marry the lady he shacked up with and had kids with...it is amazing that a few freepers have no sympathy for the parents of Terri.

You just said basically what you told Flag lady was a lie.

1. The Schindlers are organising a foundation they will control
2, That they will,be paid by that organisation.
3. That the brother will,be part of it and will receive a salary.

Actually thats pretty much what Flag lady said.

If EVER there were two parents and two sibling's who DESERVE a MOVIE DEAL it is the Scindlers.

Your comment is way cold considering these people FOUGHT for the very LIFE of their daughter and lost.

Now if you want to make that comment about the monster, Terri's husband, and his book, I will stand with you 100%. He lived off of Terri before he beat the heck out of hergot the big money three years after her collapse and his lawsuit, he LIVED with the schindlers until he GOT THAT MONEY, and he is advertising himself as a speaker on regarding Terri now, writing a book and probably he really is trying to cement down a movie deal.

Have we seen the check stubs made out to the Schindler's for a salary. Until we do, Flaglady's statement is pure speculation. And yes, charity's do release a report detailing expenses. Until we see that report, it is speculation.

And that is probably HOW they support themselves, ms. scientologist( forgive if you aren't in this cult, but you always post exactly along the scientologist's belief system, and they were WAY in favor of knocking Terri off...just like happened.

They USED their retirement fund up, COMPLETELY, supporting michael the monster, terri's husband, and PAY for Terri's therapy for the first three years after he beat the heck out of her her collapse, believing that pig when he said he would use the million plus dollars he would get from the lawsuit to pay for all the therapy Terri would need, plus a big house for all of them to live in that would be made for terri to live in, wheelchair accessible, etc.

You, Ms Flag, know all of this, you have trashed Terri's right to life from the beginning.

I think you have me confused. I'm not the guy who "helps out the foundation", I'm guy who wants to know how much the "help" gets.

"if you want to make that comment about the monster, Terri's husband, and his book, I will stand with you 100%."

Anyone from either side who uses what happened to make money is equally guilty, in my opinion. As for the family donating the profits, I certainly hope they donate every dime, but experience tells me that they'll see something from it.

They're not making a dime.

No, they're making a lot of dimes. I just hope the 'made for TV Movie of the Week' is better than when the networks did competing Long Island Lolita movies. But who would you get to play Randall Terry? Hmmm that is a tough one. Nicholson? Shifty, sort of out there on the fringe? Too bad Redd Foxx has passed on. I'd like to see him as Alan Keyes, sort of adding the comedic aspect

The Schindler family has been through hell.

Have they now? When Michael refused to share the settlement money with his in-laws they created a myth about Terri and derailed an entire nation to feed their vindictiveness. Their myth has people believing in great and wild conspiracies.

A) They have a right under the First Amendment to tell their story.

First Amendment protects from government censorship. These folks have no shame. They are making sure to squeeze Terri out of every last gasp of dignity she had left which after the staged balloon-tracking video was very little.

B) They deserve any funds they receive.

They *deserve* NOTHING. Terri deserved not to be prostituted before the world but that didn't stop them.

The cold hard facts did not support their claims about Terri or about Michael's alleged refusal to treat Terri. She was treated. She was moved across country to experimental chip implant treatment. Nothing changed. Her parents partnered with quacks like the never Nobel nominated doctor.

I see some are trying to use Michael as a distraction.

*This* story is about the "sainted" Schindlers. About their behavior. Their book. The checkable facts, the timeline and autopsy decimated his in-law's claims. It wasn't enough he suffered his loving wife being undead, he had in-laws, government entities, media vultures and quacks put him through hell.

"Weren't a lot of people on here saying that it would be Michael Schiavo getting a book deal?"

Don't either of you know how to read? Michael's already got a book deal, through Dutton Publishing. The accusation about Michael is proving to be very true.

Nope. They are not equally guilty.

One family sacrificed their entire savings, cashed in their retirement fund and paid for three years of Terri's therapy right after out of control freak michael beat the heck out of her because they believed him when he said he would use the money to provide for Terri and the family, build a big house where they could share in her care, etc, BEFORE he got the money, put a DO NO RESUSITATE card on Terri's chart and began the long hunt to find a killer attorney to help him.

SO NO.........One famiy gave ALL to save their dtr, INCLUDING giving that monster of a husband THEIR HOME TO LIVE IN after her injury and until he GOT THE MONEY.

HE GAVE NOTHING.

He had been CASHING in on TERRI since BEFORE her collapse. He was a job hopper, longest tenure at any job...THREE MONTHS...he depended on TERRI's salary then, and the Schindler's good will next, and the cash windfall from the lawsuit NEXT, and the the 20o,ooo he got for not being able to have sex with his partner, then he hooked up with a concubine and made kids (saying Terri would want him to be happy) EVEN as he denied her THE SMALLEST OF PLEASURES for 13 years...........no SUNSHINE upon her face, no outings, NO THERAPY, refused to give her the latest tests, etc., etc., etc.

So NO, NJ------------there is NO EQUALITY in the CASE.

It is a travesty of justice and it was a full blown murder.
