Do you approve of Gov. Bush's actions?

[Banjo]

Oh is that how it works a cheating husband allow to kill his own wife by straving her? Is that some kind of love and caring husband that anyone would want? Oh please....

Yes, it's how the law works in Florida. I didn't make the law. So please don't get too unpleasant toward me. There's nothing I can do save Terri because it's out of my hands. It's in Michael's hands because he is the husband, even though he is no longer faithful to her. But still, the law is the law.

It's up to the Americans to make a change, not me.

 

[Tousi]

Angel, take as long as you need, hon. I, too, have seen the tapes; I am not an unfeeling person but Life is pretty much governed by laws and that is the way it has to be. Sometimes when national attention is drawn to an issue, new laws are made so........anyway, have a good rest of the night.

 

[Cheri]

Hey, hey, Cheri, take it easy; don't look at me; talk to Florida. Weren't you just there?

hahahaha! I am sorry Tousi, this whole thing is tearing me up inside I have a heart for Terri and I hate to see anyone suffering expectly someone who is helpless laying in bed suffering over straving and It just breaks my heart in pieces... If I knew she was taken off the feeding tube last Friday while I was in Florida I would go up to the court room and do some bashing out on that cold-heart judge. LOL.

 

[Banjo]

Actually, I've heard that at least 20 different judges went through with this case. So it's not just one judge, most of these judges were on Michael's side. :-/

The judges really can't help it unless a law is changed.

 

[Tousi]

That's alright, Cheri, huggzzzz; but once again, don't blame the judge. His job is to INYERPRET the laws. The Legislature MAKES the laws. The cops whom RSteve just loves ENFORCE the laws. Have a good night; cya tomorrow!

I didn't mean to get unpleasant toward to you, If you felt that way I apology I didn't meant to do that. I am just angry at Michael and the State of Florida. (peace)

:sure:

:sure: thats what separated or ex husbands are!! :sure:


(its doesnt mean all husbands.. wives too)..

Yeah, I understand.

Well, Terri didn't have a living will. So it's really up to Michael to make the final decision. After all, he is her husband, and legally... he has the right to make the final decision.

Not the parents. But if she wasn't married, then her parents would be responsible for her, not Michael. That's probably why the courts kept on rejecting all of the appeals made by the parents, because the parents are not legally entitled to having the final say. Michael is, as long they are married.

Not trying to offend anybody, but that's how it works.

Whoa, Banjo ! lol ! That's not what I am seein'. All I am seein' that Michael is killin' her by cuttin' off the real blood and flesh baby from the parents...so much the same he cuts off Terri's life by refusin' the feedin' tube and water. He is treatin' her like a furniture, eh ? Geez whiz... Terri ain't a furniture like an old furniture to throw away. Terri is a REAL livin' thing. She was given to the parents from God when the parents gave birth of her.

You can't really say that it is Michael's power to take over the parents' for Terri just because, Terri is his wife -- Geez whiz ...He is havin' an affair with another woman to disgraced Terri in her condition. The picture looks bad to me the way I see it. Michael is not a courage man enough to stand up for his wife in despite of her condition, let alone his love to show her how much he loves her...but, Michael don't have that in him. He is soo W E A K and BIG baby ! :roll:

I wonder how will Terri feel when she is in Heaven to review her life and discover that her parents cried and begged for Terri's life...and what Michael's response is goin' to be ......... ? *shudders* I can imagine what it's like to feel when it comes in Terri's shoes.

 

[Tousi]

Here is a thought: Will NOT happen but SUPPOSE(pretend) a judge gave Terri's parents guardianship, I bet they would approve pulling the tube, too because she is too far gone, her brain damage is just too great.

 

[Cheri]

I don't believe that, No parent would pull a feeding tube to strave their own child, I wouldn't. I wouldn't let my son suffer no way. It would only hurt me more if I see him suffering by straving. I wouldn't live with that.

 

[Tousi]

Cheri, I understand your emotions but have you thought that to let her live is more cruel than to let her live? I think this will be my last post for the day on this highly emotional issue. I think we should close our day and go to bed on a cheerful note.

Tou "try to never let the sun go down on our anger" si

 

[Toonces]

Thank GOD the courts have acted appropriately in the case. Otherwise, we'd ALL be in trouble!

Well....what scares me is if the courts continue to act like they have the greatest authority over all and is above law themselves, and coldly ignore people's pleadings, then we would be in BIG trouble. I call this judicial tyranny. A law may be a law, but it is merely a paper with word written on it by a mortal man whose intelligence is no greater than the next neighbor. It does not have a human heart therefore it cannot understand what it is mean to be compassionate. Judge Greer had insisted he was only "following the laws". Well, for judges to lock up their hearts and rigidly and blindly adhere to beforementioned piece of paper with no thought how it might cause anguish to people involved, it is simply terrifying. 0_o

Just my two cents....

 

[ravensteve1961]

Since when did the law says you allow to murder someone?

Yoohoo !!! AKA = Tim Mcveigh should he be put to death?

 

[Cheri]

Yoohoo !!! AKA = Tim Mcveigh should he be put to death?

Yes, I believe in Death penalty, He bombed OK Federal Building and even children were in that building in the daycare, He deserved death.

 

[ravensteve1961]

Ok Cheri,, Lets just say someone so close to you or even a pet you loved and the docs recomend you to let her or him die in dignity?Would you let him or her die?

 

[Soonersseth]

I hope Michael gets sick like Terry and someone starves him untill he almost die then re insert tube for while untill he is fully nourished. Then starve his cheating ass again and keep do that never let him die.

 

[Roadrunner]

...don't blame the judge. His job is to INYERPRET the laws...

True, but to also base a decision by the evidence presented and when denying such evidences such as the tapes, etc..., just how are these judges deemed worthy of making a compatible and fair jugdement? (by the way Tousi, this isn't directed at you, I'm just adding onto your own statement )

Also, as Toones commented on judical tyranny, it's very possible this is slowly happening across this great land of ours....

Lastly, just how can the law just 'see' only the fact that Michael is legally married but gives in to hindsight that there is also another 'law', try this for size--> 'adultery', meaning he may be legally married, but is currently having consenual sex with another woman whom did bear two children between the two of them? Isn't there such a law that could override his decision based on the fact that he is currently having an affair with another woman? Because the point I'm getting at is simply this, why should the judge(s) be allowed to listen to his pleads when he is currently and obviously having a relationship--I don't agree for a moment that he is entitled to have a 100% 'say' in this ongoing case!

Well, if there was such a law. This battle would had ended years ago and we wouldn't be hearing of this situation as of now. I don't think it's illegal to commit adultery, but I know it goes against one of the ten commandments.

Some people practice open marriage too as well. So that argument could be put down in the court. :-/

 

[Roadrunner]

Perhaps it would have indeed many years ago when he first started the 'new' relationship...but for the sake of the arguement 'now'...at this time when really he doesn't deserve to have 100% 'say'--

It's just that recently I realized the objectable viewpoint and it very well could be considered a valid liability or whatnot in regards to this ongoing situation....although, there are cities, states that have that statue of law in the lawbooks, but not enforced.
