Yesterday I referenced a pair of articles on Terri Schiavo, the Florida woman whose husband wants to let her die so that he can marry another woman and keep her money. Today, I am reminded of this by Chuck Colson's "Life or death in Florida." I often disagree with Mr. Colson, he can get Protestant-preachy, but this article nicely sums up the fact that people we think are unaware sometimes are aware, the sketchiness of Mr. Schiavo's own position, and the lamentable, deplorably lack of protection that Terri Schiavo is receiving, protection that one would have thought would be built into our system. As Mr. Colson says, "As things stand, any convicted felon on death row would now be granted more rights than Terri. At least the felon would be allowed legal representation."
