Re: OT: Game, Set, Match--Legal murder by starvation
I would suggest anyone making a judgement in this case, to carefully read everything they can on it. The latest articles in the mainstream press smack of reporters not doing their homework and basing their information off of a snippet or two of info they have found on the case.
If you look carefully enough you will see how this is a tragedy, and it is unlike any of the common euthanasia cases that most folks argue over.
I have been aware of this case for over a year now, and it shows how disgusting humanity can be when people try to determine someone's self worth based on their own personal views versus the views of the person who is about to die. It also shows how screwed up the U.S. Court system can be.
And yes a will would have saved her in this situation Mephisto.

Update: The bill has passed the legislature and the tube should be re-inserted but the husband is trying to fight it in court as we speak.

Well, Michael "Scumbag" Schiavo will be on Larry King tonight, discussing his decade long feud with the Schindlers, Terry's parents. Might be tempted to watch it, as long as I can find a barf bag.
