The only doctor to testify she was in a persistent vegetative state was a doctor who only saw her for 15 minutes and was a strong advocate for the death with dignity (kill’em before they suck the inheritance resources) The husband testified when suing for the millions of dollars in her name that she would live a very long time and he needed this big lump sum to take care of her, right after the settlement he hired attorneys to help him have her killed. The judge who ordered the tube removed never saw her and also insisted no one was allowed to feed her via mouth or give her water. She could eat its just that the husband did not want to pay to have someone feed her so he had the feeding tube installed. There is video tape of her following objects with her eyes, blinking once or twice for yes and no, saying the word pain when she was menstruating and wanting something to help with the cramps. A number of nurses who said she was communicative but none of that mattered. There were also two ex girlfriends of the husbands who testified that he often called Terri a pig and was angry that she would not just hurry up and die because it was wasting his funds.
I agree with you here that this would be a case of federal authoritarianism, but it came from the left not the right.
neither should abortion on demand for any reason be a federal decisions
I was, but in my county you pretty much have to be a democrat to be sure your vote counts. When I was a republican I would always get a note about 4-6 weeks after the election saying my vote did not count because my signature did not match and being a 3d party does not let you vote in primaries. I would be a registered independent if I could vote in primaries and I was sure my vote would really count.
I am aware that Amsterdam has a very high case of people addicted to heroin and even though they have free needle giveaway’s they have to hire a person to pick up dirty needles in the streets and in parks. I don’t see that as a plus. I also know that you cant smoke cigarettes in public but you can toke on a doobie in the park in front of the kids and all is good.
Not being able to cut down your tree here is not about safety it’s about tree hugging liberal freaks from hell that like the trees more than they like your rights. But we have it better than Marion County in Salem, you can not plant a bush, shrub or tree unless its pre approved by the county, and it must be indigenous to the area.
Even if someone is wearing a seat belt it’s not responsible people’s problem to have to take care of them. I do not expect my responsible neighbors to have to take care of me.
A perfect solution? Blackmail?
So you are saying that you believe people have to do what others feel is right even if you don’t like wearing a seat belt or helmet but you can buy your way out of it by donating organs? That seems more like blackmail to me.
I should be able to drive without a seat belt except for maybe if I am pregnant, I can see having to give safe passage to the other person within me. And If I get myself in a wreck and it’s my own fault no one should have to pay for me, I should pay for myself. If the other driver is at fault his insurance should have to pay for it.
I mean no one should be killing others, not mothers killing their kids, not the state killing prisoiners and we are sick that we just talk about it being wrong but do nothing.
I agree both parties have problems, morally I think the democrats have bigger problems.
