gridloreI've avoided ranting about the Schaivo situation in my journal. I'm sure most of you know, or can guess, my position.
But yesterday, several protestors were arrested for tresspassing at the hospice facility.. they were trying to bring Terri cups of water.
Which would have killed her. See, she hasn't had a swallowing reflex in a decade. Pour water down her throat, and it goes right into the lungs.
This shows the level of idiocy of the "save Terri" people. They don't care about the most basic facts of the case, prefer to believe in flights of fancy that this woman, lacking a cerebral cortex, will someday sit up and speak. It isn't going to happen.
Were I in charge at the hospice, I would have taken the trespassers into a conference room and told them in gloating terms how they almost committed murder, how they were idiots, and that they should all go finish grade school before making medical judgements.
