The Results of Terri Schiavo's Autopsy
While in Europe, a newsflash emerged on the results of Terri Schiavo's autopsy as if it set the record straight on things. It seems that Schiavo died of, pregnant pause, dehydration. Ta da!
Yeah, and?
Well apparently the autopsy also revealed that large sections of her brain had atrophied, and she was blind, with no chance of recovering from these conditions. The way these facts were reported, it's clear the MSM was trying to say: "so there!"
In reality, to me at least, it is a gross indictment of what the husband and judge had done to the poor woman. They deliberately forced her to die of thirst merely because she had gross disabilities from which she could never recover. The media discusses this matter of factly like that IS the justification for her outright murder right under the eyes of a disbelieving public.
To that I say, these results all the more reveal the overt travesty of justice in this matter. And it is a warning shot over the bow of those who care for disabled people everywhere.
