Could you imagine how awful a place it would be to live in basically the 1400s like Ben does?

Yes. But I don't think my imagination fully captures the horror that a world run by fundies would be.

Wow, I guess that means I'm Amish now. Cool.

How dare they let a husband make medical decisions for a wife who is in a coma and can't communicate what she wants.

Oddly enough - an ex-husband who had remarried and no longer wished to take care of his ex. Why couldn't her actual family take care of her?

[Ben Kenobi]

HER BRAIN WAS MUSH
STOP CREATING FALSE DICHOTOMIES

Answer the question Sava! You say you're all about choice - should a man get to choose for his wife whether she lives or dies?

What are you talking about? I thought this was about Terri Schiavo.

Yes? Michael Schiavo had already remarried. Her parents wanted to care for her.

**** you for making me look this up. He remarried after she died.

Schiavo and his new bride have two young children. They met in a dentist's office about 11 years ago and began a relationship after Terri Schiavo was already in a nursing home.

They had two kids together prior to Terri's death. Terri died in 2005, he waited 6 months to get married to the lady with whom he cheated on his wife, but only after executing his wife first. Stellar husband!

Man it's like he had no vested interest in killing his wife!

See this part?

"In sickness and in health".

Plus - Terri was perfectly happy until she 'accidentally' 'fell' down a flight of stairs. That was how she ended up in a nursing home. Now she's dead because of her POS 'husband'. I hope he rots in hell.

It's impossible to "cheat on" someone whose brains have turned to mush and will never recover. And if her parents wanted to support her how did he have a "vested interest" in letting her die instead of handing her over and getting a divorce?

[Ben Kenobi]

It's impossible to "cheat on" someone whose brains have turned to mush and will never recover.

Then it's also impossible to be married to that same lady. Which means that Michael has no power over his 'wife'.

If she's your wife, and you are claiming to know what 'she' wants, then why are you cheating on her (with 2 kids) by another lady? **** you, Michael Schiavo. You don't know ****.

And if her parents wanted to support her how did he have a "vested interest" in letting her die instead of handing her over and getting a divorce?

He was sole beneficiary of her estate. Her dying means he collects. Good to get some cash and move on! Cui bono? Michael Schiavo!

She was already effectively dead and practically a vegetable. Yeah when your spouse dies you get their money and decide what to do with the body. Boo hoo. Keep on crying about something that happened 7 years ago. OH NOES SPOUSAL DEATH PANELS.

[Ben Kenobi]

She was already effectively dead and practically a vegetable.

Then why do you have to kill her by starving her? It's a horrible, horrible thing to do to someone. If she's already 'dead', then just 'leave her alone'.

Yeah when your spouse dies you get there money and decide what to do with the body. Boo hoo. Keep on crying about something that happened 7 years ago.

Yeah, imagine that. The state sanctions starving someone with a disability and I might be just a tad angry about that!

[giblets]

Yeah I can see how someone as braindead and retarded as you might get worried when the state says it's okay to pull the plug on people in vegetative states who will never recover and there's no living will and the person making the decision is their spouse. She had no awareness of what was going on so it's not like she experienced a "horrible, horrible thing" happening to her. Also, LOL at the notion that putting a feeding tube in someone's mouth and force feeding them is somehow "leaving them alone" while not putting a feeding tube in them isn't.
