Anniversary of Terri Schiavo

From the Christian Law Association newsletter:

"Terri was the first American ever court ordered to die without being criminally convicted of a crime.

When our nation’s journalists and politicians discuss this issue, as they still do, they continue to get it wrong. This was not the government meddling in a private family decision. Terri’s husband voluntarily took this matter to court to obtain a judicial order mandating his disabled wife’s death. Terri was neither sick nor terminal, but a probate court judge ordered her death despite the heroic efforts of Terri’s family, her attorneys, and many elected leaders including the President of the United States to urge a higher court to overturn this outrageous decision. "

I think of this story, and it makes me think of the recent story of the North carolina Homeschooling mom who had her right to homeschool overturned in "divorce court" by a judge that clearly had an agenda of getting her kids into public school, despite their high grades and academic testing.

We cannot put our heads in the sand while the government and local courts are consistently doing things to take away our freedoms. They cannot be allowed to do that, they must be held accountable. We must stay aware of what is going on around us, and be willing to stand against the wrongdoings of our government, before it is considered trreason to say anything against the government. If we do nothing, we are allowing it to happen.

Have you plugged in to your local 9-12 project? If not, I encourage you to- today! My local chapter is meeting at the end of this month and I am going to be there. I am also going to be going to our 4-15 local tea party downtown. Think that's a fly by night operation? Think again, these things are popping up all over the nation, don't take my word for it, look for yourself! Go to the website to find the one nearest you and make it a family event.

Don't stick your head in the sand- open your eyes and pay attention to what is happening to our nation- and do something to stop it! When my kids are grown, and they are sitting with their grandkids talking about how things were when they were little, and they talk about a certain president called Obama and how through his UNgodly, flawed vision almost RUINED the most wonderful country in the world ... they are going to be able to say their grandma made sure she done everything she could to stop it, and through her and thousand other God fearing parents and Christians- it WAS stopped.

Never take freedom for granted!
