16. It's tragic that this woman and her family
had to be dragged into the middle of all this, but if this does indeed wake up some of the sheeple to what is going on in this country it might be worth all this insanity.

This whole situation should never have been pulled in the spotlight to begin with. This should have been a private matter for the husband and her parents and no one else.

My Uncle(my mom's only brother) went into the hospital for emergency gall-bladder surgery in 1994. Afterwards he suffered a massive stroke that left him brain dead.

IF ANYONE had jumped into the middle of our decision to remove his life-support I think I would have beat them senseless. We were in pain at losing him, but knew it was the last loving thing we could do for him. Keeping him hooked up wouldn't have made him better, it would have only made us feel better.

If Terri Schiavo's eyes were closed, none of these monsters would care one whit whether she lived or died. But because she has reflexive movements and her eyes are open, they have jumped into the fray.

I'm am sick of the lot of them. :grr: :grr:
