Such was the surreal scene Friday as dozens of sign-toting people from the Tampa Bay area and beyond continued their vigil outside the Hospice House Woodside where Schiavo lives.

Most were supporters of Bob and Mary Schindler, Schiavo's parents, and some had harsh words for her husband, Michael Schiavo, and Circuit Judge George Greer, who reinstated his earlier order to remove Schiavo's feeding tube.

``All those people who are putting this woman to death are going to stand before the real judge, the God of this universe,'' the Rev. David Williams, pastor of Calvary Road Baptist Church in Clearwater, told the crowd.

Paraphrasing from Matthew 7:23, he said: ``And when they stand in front of him he may very well say to them, depart from me, you who work iniquity, for I never knew you.''

Earlier, former Green Beret commander, decorated Vietnam War veteran and one- time presidential candidate Bo Gritz served homemade arrest warrants for Greer and Michael Schiavo on Pinellas Park squad car No. 12.

``I've only ever done this one other time and that was Ruby Ridge,'' Gritz said in reference to the 1992 standoff between white separatist Randy Weaver and family and federal agents that Gritz helped resolve.

Gritz said he was making a citizen's arrest based on evidence of unspecified felonies committed by the judge and Schiavo.

``Saving Terri Schiavo is going to take a national effort,'' Gritz said.

As helicopters buzzed overhead, nearly 20 television satellite and microwave trucks, numerous reporters and a jumble of equipment jammed one side of the narrow street.

Suzanne Vitadamo, Terri Schiavo's sister, hid behind large sunglasses. An old red Datsun pickup with a camper on the back, festooned with brightly colored signs such as ``Stop The Insanity,'' ``Save Terri Schiavo's Life'' and ``The Ten Commandments,'' drove back and forth much of the day.

Among the demonstrators was Brandon Roberts, 23, of Temple Terrace. He carried a sign that read: ``Let Her Live'' and ``Choose Life, John 3:16.''

``I really thought that cooler and wiser heads would have prevailed,'' the University of South Florida student said. ``It's unfortunate to see it has come to this point. I think Terri Schiavo is going to die.''

Michael Schiavo had his backers, including Tim Harmon, 44, of Tampa. He held a sign that read, ``I Support Michael Schiavo and Freedom of Medical Choice!''

``I felt that Michael Schiavo went through the court system and that she didn't want to live like this,'' said Harmon, who was called a ``murderer'' and had salt thrown at him by opposing demonstrators.

He was accompanied by Leddy Hammock, a minister at Unity Church of Clearwater.

``People have made this a very personal issue, and they feel very passionate about it,'' she said. ``And we do, too. But our passion is about the freedom of individuals to make their own choices. And our concern is the intrusion of government in those choices.''
