Default OT: Game, Set, Match--Legal murder by starvation

Today, the murder of Terry Schindler Schiavo began. Within two weeks at the most, she will die of starvation and dehydration. The courts have denied her rights, and now her husband and his fiancee of seven years will finally be allowed to kill his wife. Ironically, he told another court in 1992 that he loved Terri, that he intended to keep his wedding vows, and that Terri was a joy to him. Of course, malpractice money was at stake in that case. Now, the money from that medical trust fund is gone, apparently spent on legal efforts to end Terri's life.

See Terri's family's web site for more on this revolting example of everything wrong with our society. Weep. Rage. Threaten. But, most of all, SPEAK OUT!
