[lbo-talk] Schiavo had half a regulation brain

[C. G. Estabrook]

Actually, I do buy the lone gunman theory: 40 years of
investigation haven't shown anything else to be the case.

And I don't think courts should order that someone be made
dead (as Ralph Nader put it) because judges are not satisfied
with her brain capacity.

Just as I don't think that they should order people be
sterilized because (in the words of SC Justice O. W. Holmes),
"Three generations of idiots are enough."  

But I am a bit surprised at the willingness of some
progressives to acquiesce in state-ordered killing. --CGE
