Terri Schiavo Mafia 338 - Game over, Terri Dead

[BabyJesus]

Theresa Marie "Terri" Schiavo (December 3, 1963 – ??) is a woman from St. Petersburg, Florida whose medical and family circumstances and attendant legal battles are fueling intense media attention and led to several high-profile court decisions and involvement by politicians and interest groups. Schiavo, then 26, collapsed in her home in 1990 and experienced respiratory and cardiac arrest. She remained in a coma for ten weeks. Within three years, she was diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state (PVS).

In 1998, when it became legal to do so, Terri's husband and guardian Michael Schiavo petitioned the courts to remove her gastric feeding tube; Terri's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, opposed this. The courts found that Terri was in a PVS and that she should not be kept alive. In 2003, the matter began to receive national attention.

By March 2005, the legal history around the Schiavo case included fourteen appeals and numerous motions, petitions, and hearings in the Florida courts; five suits in Federal District Court; Florida legislation struck down by the Supreme Court of Florida; a subpoena by a congressional committee in an attempt to qualify Schiavo for witness protection; federal legislation (Palm Sunday Compromise); and four denials of certiorari from the Supreme Court of the United States.

What will happen? Will the feeding tube be removed, and will Terri finally perish? Or will Terri be kept "alive" indefinately??

The battle is on for the life of Terri Schiavo.

Rules

:

Nights will last around 48 hours or so. If night choices come in earlier, it will dawn earlier.
Days will last as long as they need to. If discussion lags, I will start modkilling. If discussion picks up, I'll stop.
Votes must be in bold. If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted.
Unvoting is stupid, and you do not need to do it. Just cast votes.
Lynching will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to retract will be unheeded.
You may NOT vote: no lynch – If you try, I will modkill you.
The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so.
Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing.
Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts
Don’t quote any messages from me. You are liable to get mod-killed if you do. Or turned into a voteless Chinaman, depending on whether or not I got laid recently.
If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice to me I will make a choice for you, which might result you being quite unhappy
If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
I will post vote counts often. Please feel free to request one should you deem it necessary.
If you have any questions, you can pm me or ask in the thread. I'll get back to you as soon as possible, and with the best explanation that I can.
I am always right, but not always accurate. If I've made a mistake, please tell my by email as soon as possible. If you try to notify me in thread, I'll have to to edit your post and you will most likely be mod-killed.
Thread will remain open at night, to encourage game participation..
Most importantly...this is a game and we're here to have fun. Do your part!!

Awww...poor Terri never got to know that Milli Vanilli lip synched to the music. To her, those odd dreadlocked men put passion into singing about blaming it on the rain, yeah yeah, blaming it on the stars, oh yeah, but whatever you do, don't put the blame on you. I bet she was a big fan of them too. She looked like she liked a lot of hot chocolate.
