Exclamation The Terry Schiavo Case - What Are Your Thoughts/Opinions?

Hey guys! Since it's one of the most publicized stories right now in the news, I wondered what your thoughts & opinions are of the case involving Terry Schiavo. Do you think they should reinsert her feeding tube or leave her to die? Below are my thoughts -

I think the idea of ever having her feeding tube removed in the first place was a bad move, a decision coming from her husband of all people. I hope the idea of having her feeding tube reinserted is considered & done, Terry doesn't deserve to die like this. With the Supreme Court refusing to hear the case, they should be the ones to blame if infact Terry dies before they arrive at a decision. Not only that, I feel that too many people have said that the President nor the government should have ever gotten involved in this matter, showing in numerous polls taken by newspapers & magazines around the country. As well, just today again, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled down the case and Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's bid to intervene in the case and take custody of Terry. In this case, I side of the side of life, not death. I see this as nothing more than cruel & unusal punishment. As part of our moral system in this country, we've been taught to cherish & honor the gift of life, not deliberately end it. Why can't the Supreme Court see that? Why can't a majority of the U.S. people see that?

If Terry does die, I hope the man upstairs is ready to take care of her, take away the pain she's had to endure over these past few years. I wish nothing but the best in the time she has left on this Earth.
