You’re a doctor who watched the Schiavo case with interest, wondering how you too can legally starve your patients to death? Well, now you can study up on how to commit murder without forfeiting your freedom while soaking up sun in the Bahamas. As a bonus, you can also earn continuing education credit — and, for all I know, perhaps write off the cruise on your taxes.
"The assisted suicide advocate [George Felos] who was Michael Schiavo’s lead attorney during the legal battles with Terri Schiavo’s parents will be heading up a ‘euthanasia cruise’ during the first week of January. Doctors and attorneys who participate in the Caribbean cruise can earn continuing education credits by learning more about the medical and legal tactics that can be employed to end patients’ lives.
"Felos will be one of two faculty members leading a program called the ‘Advance Directives/End-of-Life Care and Neurology.’ Those participating in the five-day cruise will leave January 3 for the Bahamas, according to a North County Gazette report [sic, it's North Country].
"James Barnhill, a physician and longtime partner with Felos in advocating euthanasia, will assist in leading the courses.
"In 1998, Barnhill saw Terri for 10 minutes and told Circuit Court Judge George Greer that he believed she had no chance of recovery. That claim was later refuted by other doctors and experts on caring for incapacitated patients but Greer allowed Michael to take Terri’s life anyway."
It’s stuff like this that make me wonder if hell is going to be a sail on a lake of fire with happy, smiling people plotting to create hell on earth–Michelle.
