59. People have the right to die with dignity
You said, "I also said that he never mentioned his wifes wishes until after the malpractrice suit was settled. Care to comment?"

Um perhaps he thought there was a chance that she might live? BUT IT HAS BEEN 15 YEARS. Her Cerebral Cortex is basically all fluid. She is basically a husk. People have the right to die with dignity. Michael Schiavo is her guardian, who would know best. Have you seen Million Dollar Baby? Maybe you should.

Also you said,"ALSO....I have been chastized for saying MS decided this and alot of people stated the COURTS DECIDED....OK...considering the courts have made horrendous mistakes before with regard to the death penality, why are you so sure the courts are so right in allowing her to die ?
Care to comment?"

First of all you are ignoring the fact that SHE is BRAIN DEAD. Also you are ignoring the fact she is being kept ALIVE ARTIFICIALLY. If we went the natural course she would die without that feeding tube. You are saying that the courts are wrong and that she could live on her own. DUDE SHE CAN"T LIVE ON HER OWN, THATS WHY SHE NEEDS A TUBE TO LIVE.

Let her die in peace.
