I don't think their numbers are dropping per se. I think they lurk aplenty. Still, I think it's best to ignore them.
May God have mercy on us for the evil we do as a society (and individually as well).
The doctors ignored her written instructions, and saved her life during a heart attack. She then decided she wanted to live, and agreed to get a pace maker. Her family is furious, and insists she can't mean it. ...the resources could be better spent on people who still have a quality of life. I wonder why her family is putting so much pressure on her to hurry up and die.
Some people speak of their own future death in hypothetical terms, and say they'd want to die. But this is another example of the very real reaction people have when faced with the reality of death. She doesn't want her next breath to be her last. Her family needs to stop putting their own selfishness ahead of her life.
Well, c'mon, BB! Don't you know that at 94 it doesn't matter if you change your mind? If you have no "quality of life" left, then it's time to boot you out the door! (Sounds to me like the kids must have talked their mom into signing something she didn't really want to sign, and since she got resuscitated by mistake, they are furious that she's not dead yet. Looking for an inheritance, by chance?)
Meanwhile, Florida is STILL the Starvation State.
Greta emailed me in 2004. That was a few email accounts back. She said the starvation/dehydration was sickening or disgusting. I can't remember which it was. And, she's a scientologist to boot.
Thanks for your Nat Hentoff post. Terri's support crossed all demographic lines, a marketing coup but her support couldn't save her. Powerful people were hell bent on killing her.
Didn't dispirit me a bit. Matter of fact, I count his inaction on what was clearly a state affair to be one of the few conservative things the man has done.
Somehow this and all the elderly and sick that were euthanized in New Orleans so the caretakers could leave their job should be looked at as a continuation of our culture of death in this country.
The euthanized in New Orleans are under investigation. Louisiana at least has a tough Attorney General. Florida has a weenie AG who wants to be Florida's weenie Governor.

Terri was robbed and then murdered. We cannot forget about the robbery of over half a million dollars. Terri's was the first death order by a judge issued for a NON-CONVICT who wasn't on death row. The first. That order violated the Florida Statutes. That wasn't the only violation by Judge Greer.
Violations against Terri are page after page long. The US Justice Dept. is conducting an investigation currently but if it's a faux investigation, the GOP will simply lose more members.
Check this out. Dr. Dave Weldon from Florida is one of the best congressmen we have in DC.

I sure didn't like hearing what those nurses and caretakers did there.
They had claimed to do that because of a state law that said they had to be dead to legally leave, SO THEY KILLED THEM ALL.
Horrible things were done.
I take that as a question. The answer would be no, unless one is deceived or are a deceiver. Pardon my Christianity, but the bible speaks of both. You have seen the result of opposite thinking.(death) Not even a humane death at that.
I bookmarked this new web site which was created by first string Terri supporters. There's a lot of good updates and resource material at this site. Too many people are dying before their time.

Just the beginning IMO. The older population will be the dominant voting population in this country in the next 20 or so years, and people love to vote themselves all kinds of goodies at others expense.
With so few people supporting a top heavy elderly population, I am sure the world actually would embrace a nice bird flu that would remove the elderly and weak from out responsibility. If the Bird flu don't kill them off, I think their heirs sure will be thinking about it.
The burden on the young might get unbearable.
Whatever

Okay whatever you say.
the GOP will simply lose more members.
If that means chasing off kooks and returning to a more limited government platform, less interference into the affairs of the separate and sovereign states, and actually taking government out of familial decisions then I may rejoin the party. Doubtful but anything's possible.
No billbears, slavery isn't coming back anytime soon. Sorry. The next best thing you got going for you now is State sponsored murder, which I see you support.
Cute. Who in their right mind would want that? But that's about all you've got isn't it? One liners. Luckily most federal politicians have backed away from this current issue.

Again another assumption. I don't support anything of the sort. However I don't think 537 political hacks or 9 Justices in Washington know any better about the issue than I would. Of course, Justice Scalia stated that already didn't he?
Let's stop beating around the bush. You wanted Terri dead. Right?
