Not only has Terri Schiavo had the misfortune to be in her present condition, but she is further cursed with an evil husband who obviously doesn't take the "for better or for worse" part of his wedding vows seriously. As if that were not enough, a society that is supposed to be civilized has elected to the Florida judiciary judges who make a mockery of our constitution's "right to life." In spite of Terri's loving parents willingness to assume responsibility and care of her, the judge in the case insists on granting her evil husband the right to murder by proxy.
How can we possibly have gone this far? How does a society which insists on punishing people for the mistreatment of animals care so little for one of their own species? Any animal owner, tired of caring for a pet, who decided to starve it to death would face huge fines at a minimum and possibly jail time. Yet, here we have a judge who not only condones this treatment of a human by her terribly wicked husband, but stands ready to enforce his right to do it.
Maybe I just answered my own question. Perhaps people like this husband and this judge have disgusted us so much with people that we no longer value them. But Terri hasn't acted this way. Unfortunately it is she, the innocent victim, instead of the guilty husband and judge, who will die as a result of this crime.
If justice were truly served, Terri's husband would be facing jail time for neglect, abuse and breach of contract; Terri would live on in the loving care of her parents; and The judge would be impeached, disbarred and run out of town on a rail...
