| Posted by: chelktty | | Just saw a live shot in front of the hospice on CNN. Some nut of a woman is walking along the line of protesters and continuously blowing a horn.
You know what? Pray, cry, hold a sign, demonstrate peacefully or quietly but for God's sake, preserve the sanctity of why patients are in there. A hospice is not a place people go to recover. They go there to die with peace and dignity. This 3 ring circus with music troups, weird costumes, shouting, yelling, disturbing the peace, mayhem and now this ridiculous horn blower is disrupting the peaceful process for the 70 odd other patients at this facility. Terri is dead. The circus is over. These friggin clowns need to pack up their crap and get the hell out of town. I'm seriously tempted to go down there myself with a sign telling these attention hungry freaks to GO AWAY, but unlike these disrespectful, selfish A-holes, I refuse to add to this spectacle any further. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: chelktty | | From MSNBC:
Since March 18, when Schiavo’s feeding tube was disconnected, a cadre of fervent demonstrators gathered outside Woodside Hospice to protest. Many slept in tents or sleeping bags, while others held signs and sang songs during their 13-day vigil.
Thursday morning, people burst into tears and threw down the signs they had been carrying as word spread that Schiavo had died.
“You saw a murder happening,” said Dominique Hanks, who had ridden her motorized wheelchair around the hospice every day since the tube was removed.
“Everybody who denied her right to live are accomplices to murder, and God knows,” Hanks said.
Disgusted with Bush
Patrick Bautch of Milwaukee disgustedly tossed away a sign that said “President Bush, Please Help Terri.”
“He could have done something,” Bautch said. “He was supposed to be for life and he neglected his role. ... The value of human life has just gone down the drain.”
A few feet away, a small group burst into hymns, singing the traditional song, “How Great Thou Art,” as Richard Jacobson, of Corning, N.Y., accompanied them on a tarnished trumpet.
Jacobson, who has been playing religious and patriotic music outside the hospice for the past three days, said he didn’t really believe that Terri was dead.
“I’m not believing the report of man,” the bearded man said. “God will raise her from the dead, and all the world will see it.”
After the announcement, Mike Stafford, of Hollywood, Fla., stood before police — who had arrested more than 50 people trying to bring water to Schiavo — gave the Nazi salute and shouted “Heil Hitler.”
“It’s really sick what we’ve seen here,” Stafford said.

| Posted by: mystic | | Dont these people have lives?
Are they going to continue to go to the rest of the hospice's and hospitals who are standing by the wishes of other families in instances like this?
I mean this isnt the first time a person's feeding tube has been removed.
How come this isnt an issue when that happens?
If these people are so against the removal of ventilators or feeding tubes, why are they not camped out at other places as well?
Oh...I know...because there is no media camped out at the other places.
These people...they want to make a statement, but their statements arent consistent...they are convenient! | | Reply To this Message

Bush, the savior. What an endearing role.
Bush, for life. What a joke.
"The value of human life has just gone down the drain". I suppose only American lives have a value.
I hope these people recover from their delusions one day.

I think the people camped out at this place are fanatical!
The Schindlers told them time and time again to go home...these people cant even respect their wishes...
The guy that made that comment...those are the people that scare me. I can see someone like this killing someone. I mean the guy isnt living in reality after making a comment like that.

| Posted by: adityamahesh | | What I fear now is for Michael Schiavo and his other family's safety. Such people will not leave them alone. These rabid people will froth from their mouths, howl to the Moon and mercilessly haunt him, and the state will not be able to provide protection for him and his family forever.

You have got to be kidding! 
What exactly do they want to accomplish by this.
She's dead. Do they think he's actually happy about that?

| Posted by: schmiggens | | I don't think these people will be really be any threat to Terri's family, they'll find a new cause to harp on about, maybe the Michael Jackson case or something, and then they'll all have forgotten about Terri in a few weeks or months. They don't really care about Terri or the issue at hand, they're just there to get publicity and try and get on the news. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: chelktty | | You nailed it Schmigg, nothing but opportunists and attention seekers...not to mention litter bugs. Upon hearing the news of Terri's passing, many just threw their protest signs to the ground in disgust.
Too bad they couldn't focus their outrage outside of the jail where John Couey is being held for raping and murdering that 9 year old girl a few weeks ago...where's the outrage over the fact that that scum was free to walk to streets after 26 arrests including several child rape charges??
Or maybe they could have demonstrated outside the courthouse of the judge who denied a restraining order for that couple who was murdered by some drug thug who'd been threatening them...he thought they had turned him in on a drug charge....their 5 year old daughter awoke to the gunshots, discovered her parents' bodies and called 911. | | Reply To this Message

I really cannot say where I have been.
I watch the Bourne Identity and Supremacy so very often for comfort food that I have lost touch with the movie industry.

But I agree, those two movies are awesome. I can't wait for The Bourne Ultimatum to come out.

| Posted by: Sprocket | | You want to talk crazy? Posters on other forums are handing out Michael Schiavo's personal address so that they can write him and tell him what they "think" of him as a human being.
Oh no, they're not "advocating hate mail," they just want to pass on the ability to just give him your "thoughts."
I got so sick of reading this level of insanity, that I had to step back, and spend my time elsewhere. | | Reply To this Message

Welllll, Matt is handsome...but,
I relate to the character in a freaky girlie mushroomy kind of way.
Check out this version of the book....it sticks closer to the book than the later version. http://imdb.com/title/tt0094791/
Have you read the trilogy?
Excellent.
Have you read The Bourne Legacy?
I own a copy and its next on my reading list.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...ks&n=507846
It's all just fodder for former mind control freaks. |
Actually, I haven't read the trilogy, but I know the basic plot. I haven't read Legacy either.
I actually like that the movies don't stick to the books at all, except for the amnesia of Jason Bourne and the fact that he is a CIA black ops agent. I think that movies should either stick to the books completely (or as much as they can), or not stick to them at all. The worst is when some filmmakers keep most of the plot but put in some of their own 'improvements'. I think that damages the story and the expectations of the people. Very rarely are the filmmakers able to change some part of the story for the better, since they are not the writers, and only the writer has the full command of the story and how it should progress.

That is an infringment of privacy, a cause for mental stress as well as a threat to his safety. Such irresponsible sites should be reported to the government and reprimanded.

| Posted by: Sprocket | | The poster didn't post his information, just said they "had" the snail mail address if anyone "wanted" it.
Many posters professed interest....not to write him right away, but to write him their "thoughts" when all the media had died down. Others thought M. Schiavo was not worth the time to lick a stamp.
I notifed the owners, and the thread was removed. I just found it amazing that individuals would invest so much time and effort into drumming up hatred for Michael Schiavo. | | Reply To this Message

Well, I am glad that you showed up here. We would not allow a posting like that. Honestly, people are taking this thing too far.
