yeah: a woman goes into a vegetative state because she's too vain to eat, and you all freak out when they stop feeding her 15 years later.
btw, she couldn't feel shit. if she was suffering from hunger, she would have fed herself... her fucking brain was gel, she was dead fifteen years ago...

you all seem so compassionate
i find you all to be hypocrites except the ones that don't care she's dead
our country kills millions in the name of peace for oil and profit
and you all care about this vegetable?
fuck off

------------so you're saying because I have compassion for this woman that I don't have compassion for those that have died in the Iraqie war?
... FUCK YOU, you cock.Don't you dare pigeon hole me or ANY of the others in this thread into that bullshit... If you're able to read my mind and know what I'm thinking - perhaps you had a chance to read Schiavo's as she starved to death for 12 days.

i'll pigeon hole who ever the fuck i want its an NT practiceive posted stories from the war both in the pvn and pbs only to be told to leave so you can fuck off still
there was nothing to read in that mind except "why am i still here, just let me die"

biz, her brain was liquid, there was no mind to read.

Post all you want, version3...
... I'll of course form my own opinion - and that's my perogative...
... but how dare you show animosity or annoyance towards those who have a compassion.
It seems that compassion is only suiting to you when it meets your personal agenda of hating the Right and pointing out their hypocrisy.
- abizzyman0
... and the Right is very VERY hypocritical...
;)
... but this conversation isn't about the right - it's about death - and the way this woman met her death.
We've all seen by now the photos and the videos (w/sound)...
... if there's 'nothing' upstairs in Schiavo's head - explain the noises - the facial 'smiles' and eye movements...
... because actions such as that must be 'triggered' by something... and according to science - these 'triggers' are all messages sent from the brain.
- mrdobolina0
biz, you do know that that video is very old, right?
- abizzyman0
yeah, dob's.. you're right.
... but there are statements from those who have been taking care of her just in the past year or two that say she shows 'reactions' etc.
There are also statements from doctors saying that new technologies can probably show 'minimal brain-activity' where once none was thought to be. These statements are in the form of sworn affidavits.

There's a few there.

show me compassion for those dieing for this country in Iraq. Why are those soldiers not given thier just compassion and media?
- mrdobolina0
dude, if she didnt have the tube inserted in the first place, what would have happened.
- abizzyman0
dob's!!!!
dude.. the tube was inserted to keep her alive cuz she couldn't keep sustain herself.
Yes - she'd die. There's no doubt about it. But starving her to death is so horrible. What a terrible way to end someone's life.
... That's my 'compassion' point.

too right, _trish. A yellow ribbon magnet on the back of a car doesn't do shit for the soldiers or inoccent ones killed.... whether it be by U.S. folks or by terrorists.. blah blah blah. YOu know what I mean.

actually I heard the court appointed doctor say on npr today that the movement and sounds she made were consistant with someone in a persistant vegitative state and not a sign of conscious brain activity.

//NPR IS LIBERAL KLD!
- robbie_m0
the sad part is..
she is now dead and either side will prolly never have closure because of all the hype

------'conscious' is a key word...
... but aren't we unconscious when we're asleep?
Those movements and sounds are triggered by something - and again... not to get repetitive - aren't all movements / actions / sounds etc triggered by the brain?
- mrdobolina0
let it go, she's gone now.

It's hard to let go of this, dob's.. it's going to happen again and again...
... and it's really sad.
Neither science or religion are correct here.

version...
... point out once in this thread where I use religion as my argument.

man is not inherently right abizzy
we destroy everything, get on a different soapbox and bitch bout something that matters
letting useless humans die is the least of civilizations problems
