Damn this article. At the top, it says his problems are that he can't see, can't eat, can't talk, can't breathe, is in pain, and there is no cure. I wrote this big long post listing the reasons why the plug shouldn't be pulled, since the kid isn't in a coma. His symptoms suck, but he is alert. You don't pull the plug on people who are awake.
After writing the big long post, I re-read the article, and it isn't until I see buried in the tail end of the article that the boy "is unaware of his surroundings." In my mind, that is the biggest point, and they bury it. Put it in the first paragraph CNN, you morons. Anyway, they should pull the plug. Let the poor kid go. |

This entire concept was described by a researcher on this subject in Scientific American - I believe the current and latest issue.

If the hospital pulls the plug, the parents can sue for wrongful death.
You want to be 'pro-choice'; well the parents are choosing for the child to live. Let's go to Nazi Germany where several non-Aryan parents had no choice whether their children live or die. |

What the fuck does Nazi Germany have to do with this case. Oh, that's right...nothing.

You're kidding, right? Congress and the State of Florida both tried to intervene, so it wasn't easy for a lot of people who should have known better.

It was easy for people without a political agenda.
