Courts say, nope, hubby's her boss, not you. Go away while we kill your daughter.
I'm not arguing that she's coming back, nor that the fed action was right. Just that this has been a horrid example of merciless proper procedure over humanity.
And you leave the parents right out of your either/or choice.
(And seemingly forget that almost 50% of the Dems who voted, voted for the bill, too.)

The court decided what she wanted. Not what her husband wanted. Not what her parents wanted. Not what that lying, ass-fucked piece of shit Tom Delay wanted (don't get mad at me, Bilmore, he's the one who decided to make it about him).
Thec ourt found that, based on the best evidence, she would not want to be maintained in a persistent vegetative state. The courts of Florida found that to be the case. The federal courts were persuaded that was her wish.
The rest of use should all stay the fuck out of it. You keep making it about her husband v. her parents. It's about what she wanted.
