Terri Shiavo Dies

• "Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C., said. . . ,
  

'In Terri's case, the courts have shown that they are suffering from a persistent state of arrogance,' he said. 'Her death is a symptom of a greater problem: that the courts no longer respect human life.'"

• "In the end, Princeton attorney Robert George said Schiavo's death lays before all Americans a choice.

'Do we recognize that all human lives have a profound inherent and equal dignity?" he asked. "Or are we prepared to abandon our historic belief in the equal dignity of all human beings and move to a view that considers some lives to be a life unworthy of life?'"
