This morning 12 year old boy was arrested as he attempted to bring a glass of water to Terri Shiavo in her Pinellas Park Hospice.
These attempts reek of political opportunism! Do you honestly believe that a 12 year old child has the capacity to decide on his own that he will attempt to bring Theresa Shiavo a glass of water (never mind that she can't drink it!!!) and then calmly comply as officers arrest him?!! Clearly, he was instructed to do this by either his parents or his church... who ever set him up to this should be equally punished for violating the rights of a minor.
