I believe we should be informed from all sides of the issue. Whether you support either party to have the facts is helpful when debating the issue.

I try to always be fair and listen and frankly in the end we may disagree but we do so based on an intellectual and respectful discussion. Which is what makes Free Republic great.

I've got just one question: What if he's lying?

[Alouette]

This is BS.

[Howlin]

Thank you very much for this post, Chickie!

[Howlin]

What if he's not?

[LegalEagle61]

He is not to be believed. Where is his so called honor when he never honored his marriage vows? He wants her dead because he is guilty of abuse or something that caused Terri to be this way in the first place.

[mewzilla]

Then she'll still be alive and cared for.

But if she dies and he's lying, how in Hades does that get redressed?

[MikefromOhio]

I don't care who is lying and who isnt, death threats go above and beyond the normal bounds and no matter what this jack@$$ adulterer did or didnt do, is uncalled for.

[JennysCool]

A refusal to quit in the face of threats, anguish and vitriol ... And a possible attempted murder rap

Just trying to be a little more accurate.

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

If Terri was a practicing Catholic, this would be against her religion...

[Crazieman]

I would believe the guy if he wasn't shacked up with another woman and had 2 kids already.

But thats not reality.

[Ludicrous]

"Because he's sticking by what he promised," Scott Schiavo, Michael's brother, said in a recent interview. "He wants to honor the last thing he can give to her."

If he's sticking by what he promised and he is so honorable, how can he explain the 2 kids with another woman?!?!

[Jewels1091]

The news said tonight that this 'husband' waited over 7 years to remember that his wife didn't want to be kept alive by tubes....of course after he got over a million dollars to take care if her 'for life' which he of course gets to decide exactly what that means.

[Howlin]

I know.

[dennisw]

M Schiavo is a zero not a hero. If he kills Terri, he kills himself.


This is a case of fatal attraction as he dances with death. He's on a hell bound train.

[Lexinom]

And so would cremation.

Michael Schiavo: A refusal to quit in the face of threats, anguish and vitriol.

But to that group of men who have been through it too, he's a real hero.

[The Chosen One]

how do you know?

[Polybius]

So why not give it up, leave Terri's feeding tube in, let her parents care for her? After all, he is living with another woman now and they have two children.

Because he would then leave himself open to possible lawsuits and/or charges of abusing Teri by denying her therapy for all these years

What if the Schindlers are lying?
