No, it's not. She was in "a persistent vegetative state." "Vegetable" is a common shorthand for that.
"Veggie" or "carrot" are pejorative and insulting, and when used just to piss you off, as I've been doing, perfectly appropriate.

It's pejorative and insensitive. it's as inappropriate in the manner used as using "fag" or "nigger" to "piss someone off". I know a lot of liberals who talk about anti-bias and prejudice and political correctness, but apparently showng bias or prejudice or political incorrecness is okay as long as the liberals are doing it in a setting or context that they deem okay. Congrats on the hypocrasy of modern day Demo liberalism.

So a court can never be wrong. How about the 100s of convicted murderers in Illinois who had their death sentences commuted? How about the numerous instances where death row inmates have been pardoned and released? Is that because the Court didn't make a mistake? How about Bush v. Gore?

I am not a MD (just a JD) and neither are you. some medical experts disputed this. Again, I would err on the side of life.

His behaviour speaks for itself.
