[T'wit]

There is no point in reading the minds of people who use far-fetched or false arguments to "justify" anything. They are wrong.

Judge Greer had no authority to prohibit giving Terri water and food by hand. He simply ordered it by judicial fiat. It was a repugnant and unlawful act.

To justify such cruelty is depraved.

"Judge Greer had no authority to prohibit giving Terri water and food by hand."

I read the autopsy report and related supporting documentation, which stated that Terri was unable to take in solid food or liquid by mouth. Anything given by mouth would have been taken into the lungs by aspiration and hastened Terri's death.

Why would anyone want to give her water by mouth if the result would be aspiration?
