Does the fact that a man is being murdered make any impression at all on you?

If the local authorities by SC law are holding the understanding it's not murder then it necessarily can't be called murder can it? But please. Increase the hyperbole as the situation calls for it.

Is there any circumstance in which you believe a person has the right to live?

Of course there is. Such instances would be if there is no living will in place, the state has set a standard what is life and what isn't (see Scalia's Cruzan decision), or the family acts in such a manner that they don't want the tubes disconnected. As the wife, who lived with her husband for 58 years, may have an understanding the children don't about her husband's wishes, and the state of SC gives her that right, it is her decision. A decision she will have to live with one way or the other. A decision that you won't and therefore is none of your business

The man had a long conversation with his family and his doctor. He stated, in plain English, that he wants to remain on the ventilator. So don't give me that crap about his wife knowing he doesn't. If you have proof that the man is lying, and he really wants to be removed from the ventilator, produce your evidence, or STFU.

He verbally revoked his living will. See my post to Little Jeremiah. Maybe his wife has health issues and doesn't understand.

"As the wife, who lived with her husband for 58 years, may have an understanding the children don't about her husband's wishes, and the state of SC gives her that right, it is her decision."

He clearly told several doctors and his children that he wants to live. That's a lot of witnesses, isn't it?

The only way your idea that his wife knows better than him would be if Jimmy Chambers was lying about wanting to live. So let's see your proof that he was lying.
