Say "No" to Kevorkian and the University of Florida

After his release from prison on June 1 for "good behavior," Jack Kevorkian, a.k.a. Dr. Death, resumed his promotion of assisted suicide as a humane conclusion for the terminally ill. He told Larry King that he felt it was important to speak to young people in high school and college about these issues.

Apparently the University of Florida agrees. According to the Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation, Dr. Kevorkian, a convicted felon and defrocked doctor, is scheduled to speak to the students there and will be paid $50,000 to do so by the University of Florida student government association.

Here's a recent letter from the Foundation's Bobby Schindler concerning the online petition that asks the University to rescind the invitation to Kevorkian:

You might have already heard that we started a petition against Kevorkian speaking at the University of Florida . If you can believe it, he's being paid $50,000 to do so.

If you haven't seen the petition I would love for you to take part in it and sign. Also, if you would also consider forwarding to others that might want to sign it...

It is starting to stir up some media as well.

Here is just one from the local paper where the University of Florida is located.

God bless,

Bobby
