Terry Schiavo Is Dying for Our Sins
by James Atticus Bowden
Errors are made by commission and omission. So it is, when individual choice makes human sin. Terry Schiavo is being killed by the state for our sins of commission and omission. But, sins can be redeemed. Americans are supposed to be the sovereigns of the states. Either we rule and guarantee the God-given right to life or tyrannical judges rule.
The key acts of commission are personal choices, the interpretation of law or hubris, of George Greer. George is a Circuit Judge for Pinellas County, Florida. The Florida Constitution (Article V, SECTION 5) doesn’t give Circuit Judges the power of capital punishment (www.leg.state.fl.us). Other judges, lawyers in costumes, made sins of commission supporting George up to the U.S. Supreme Court. Ordering a human to die, by personal word and writ, is the power of priest-kings. The power is intoxicating, addictive and corrupting – absolutely.
Yet, good Conservatives in the U.S. Congress craft a compromise that throws the final decision to a Federal Court. Like a better class of tyrant will make a ruling for cruel and unusual punishment of death by starvation more agreeable.
The acts of omission are upon every elected executive, every elected legislator and every voting citizen. If we continue our inaction for crimes against the Constitution, wrongs against persons, and, above all, sins against God, judges’ tyranny will continue and get worse.
The Constitution of Florida begins, “We, the people of the State of Florida, being grateful to Almighty God for our constitutional liberty, in order to secure its benefits, perfect our government, insure domestic tranquility, maintain public order, and guarantee equal civil and political rights to all, do ordain and establish this constitution.” Apparently, God, not judges, establish liberty.
Then, the very first section of Florida’s Constitution says, “Political power.--All political power is inherent in the people. The enunciation herein of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or impair others retained by the people.” Section 2 states the basic rights include “defend life’ and no person shall be deprived of any right because of “physical disability”.
Yet, Terry Schiavo, suffering a physical disability, will lose her life, because her adulterous husband, as legal guardian, wants to disconnect her feeding tube. It’s the same as a wife of an Alzheimer’s patient asking the judge to disconnect her husband’s heart pacemaker. Call it correctly; judicial homicide, adult abortion, execution without due process, killing the second most helpless humans, death sentence for a innocent woman convicted of no crime - except marriage to the wrong man. By any name, The People of Florida have issues with their judges.
Florida needs to amend its Constitution to take removal of judges out of the hands of other judges. Make impeachment the power of the legislature or lose more liberty.
Florida Gov. Bush may “with the approval of two members of the cabinet, grant full or conditional pardons, restore civil rights, commute punishment” (Article IV, SECTION 8). It’s time to pardon, restore the right of life, and commute punishment by starvation now.
George Greer, just a judge, used executive power to order a policeman guard in Terry’s room to prevent her parents from giving an ice chip to their dying daughter. Yet, “The supreme executive power shall be vested in a governor” (Article IV, SECTION 1) is supposed to be Governor Bush's. Who, indeed, is the executive of Florida?
Governors and legislators tremble before the judges. Since Brown vs. The School Board of Topeka, judges assumed the moral ascendancy of integration and true civil rights. Regrettably, when the judges ordered civil wrongs over and over for civil rights, the executive and legislative branches quailed. As judicial power grew with un-challenged precedents their abuses went far a field from individual rights denied by race. Liberals found they could establish their Human Secularist Totalitarianism ruling by ruling. The law of the land is what judges say, make up, get from foreigners, imagine – period.
I asked a candidate for Virginia’s Attorney General when he would disobey an illegal order from the bench. This conservative, Christian Catholic, couldn’t think how an order from a judge could ever be illegal. Scary stuff.
George Greer defies Congressional subpoenas, because he can. Any action taken against him will go to the courts where fellow tyrants will absolve him. All judges are watching. It’s time to limit judicial powers, re-organize courts, and keep impeaching judicial tyrants until good judges never again confuse their duty under the law with being demi-gods.
