Murder Continues...

We have all been following the Terri Schiavo case very closely in recent months, but Raven points out in a recent post that euthanasia has been occurring regularly in this country - multiple cases have also been logged that allow family members to make decisions that are against the wishes of the patient.  In Raven's post, it is a case of a granddaughter wanting to kill off her grandma due to what seems to be "inconvenience."  And the judicial system favors her. 

In a country where convicted murders get to live out their life awaiting punishment, you would think every day citizens who want to live would have it easy.

Ironic, isn't it?
