As I have stated before, I believe what my own eyes and common sense tell me.
If I see a "UFO", and the authorities tell me it was the planet Venus, well sorry, I do know the difference.
So no matter what condition "science" says her brain was in, I will believe my own eyes about Terri Shiavo.
And "pulling the plug" does not mean starvation to me, as everyone has to have water and nutrients no matter what condition they are in. "Pulling the plug" on a completely brain dead individual, who cannot even breath on their own, and shows zero signs of life for years, is completely different than the Schaivo case.

And what if the autopsy reveals there was some brain activity? What will you be saying then, "Oooops?"

Regardless of what her condition was, the decision should have been left up to her loving parents and not some profiteering estranged husband who had an agenda of his own.
