I refrained from discussing the late Teresa Schiavo's death until now because I would been reduced to rageful rambling and grief-stricken insipidity. I will just say this: if this were a just nation, we would hunt down and punish Michael Schiavo for his treacherous, lecherous, adulterous, and ultimately murderous behavior. If this were a just nation, Mrs. Schiavo would have died quickly and painlessly, and not in a drawn-out, agonizing circus of tearful protestors and self-serving politicians and judges, who chose to do nothing when they could have saved an innocent life.
But this is a civilized nation. A nation where we starve the weak and powerless and let their murderers go free. No wonder Jesus wept.
