People are looking at these videos and they are mystified.[snip] outraged that the court (is going to) starve to death my sister.

Perhaps the Judge wasn't able to see the video of Terri very well....

August 14, 2001 – Attorney Anderson filed a motion requesting Judge Greer to remove himself from Terri's case revealing that, because of severe eyesight problems, Judge Greer could not see Terri's trial videotape and neurological scans. Judge Greer denied the motion.

I wouldn't want Greer to be in charge of my life if he won't come to see me personally and he can't see videos of my actions very well.

We all have our own individual priorities and human limitations, and not one of us, can possibly be expected to be aware of every heartrending and complicated issue the people of the USA face.
Having said that, I shamelessly beg that you consider, or reconsider,spending a bit of your time in reviewing the recent developements regarding Terri Schiavo.
The ramifications of allowing our court system to decree a death sentence for an innocent citizen whose very existance has become "inconvenient" to a legal guardian will touch us all, eventually.
This is not an agonising "end of life" issue, concerning extraordinary and intrusive/expensive medical measures to eke out another day/week/month for a human being kept alive artificially.
This is a severely disabled woman, who has stubbornly clung to life for 13 years, under the most adverse conditions imaginable, and against all odds.
I say let God and/or Terri Schiavo, herself, decide when "it is a good day to die".
I submit for your thoughts, that the timing of her obviously inevitable future death should not be a subject decided and decreed by a court of law,for the sole "convenience of her husband" as she has not been accused nor convicted of any crime deserving a death sentence.
