I think I understand the argument. The lower Florida court, involved
repeatedly; the Florida appellate court, the Florida Supreme Court, both
involved repeatedly; the federal courts at all levels, involved more than
once--all are wrong, murderous, because they don't agree with the
politicians who have had no direct knowledge of the situation or with
those who hold that insensate life is to be maintained at all costs. I'm
reminded of the mother watching the troops march by: "Everybody's out of
step but my son John."
