Re: "you killed her too." BULL! You are turning psychotic.
Now maybe you can calm down, and *muster up sufficient guts* to try answering the following two simple questions?
(I know, I know... I've asked you and asked you politely over and over... but you always shut up real fast and head for the hills. Oh well, one more 'old college try'):
Re: "You don't pull the plug on someone over the objections of family members, certainly not parents."
1) But that's how traditional marriage law has been for many HUNDREDS of years --- dating to before we were even a country, dating to English common law and earlier. When a couple marries, the parent's 'rights' over their actions are voided. The couple become a new whole, bonded to each other.
To change that, to grant rights to parents over their married offspring, you'd have to TOTALLY REDEFINE TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE. It would be a mere shell of what it is now. (Hell, with 'gay marriage' all you've got is *more* people wanting to gain the exact same legal rights that marrieds have today... but if you WIPE AWAY THE LEGAL RIGHTS OF MARRIAGE, then you have redefined to whole thing. It wouldn't be marriage any more, it would be co-habitation. Childhood would NEVER end!)
2) If 'parents gain an over-riding legal control' over their married offspring... then would the grandparents have an over-ride over THOSE decisions? Would the greatgrandparents be able to over-ride even that??????
Now, as to the claim that "the man was NO husband to her", all I can point out is:
Since neither of us know any of the principles, all we have are the media propaganda efforts of the two sides to inform us... and that is not enough to know ANYTHING of the truth.
I've heard stories, too... like that the parents had no interest in these matters until there was a large malpractice award sitting in the couple's bank account... but at least I realize that these may just be stories, and I have no way of knowing the truth, what is truly in their hearts, and what their motivations are. |
