In what way did they have it coming? You don't think if you were in that situation your family would want to fight to keep your life? They didn't publicise Terry's situation for fun, they were involved in a legal battle with her husband on whether she should be kept alive or not. If America doesn't give two hoots about that then they're stupid, apart from anything else, because the decision in this case forms the basis for any similar cases in the future so if it's someone you know next time you'd be scrambling to find half the arguments discussed in Terry's case and you'd count your blessings to receive half the public support she did.
