compulsory vaccination

Did you know about The Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act (s. 1873)? If you haven't heard about it already, please read these articles here and here for a brief introduction.

or read the bill itself.

(and see this site for updated info on homeland insecurity legislation)

To give you a quick overview, this compulsory vaccination bill, if made into law, would require everyone, repeat, everyone to be vaccinated if a national emergency was called. This might not seem so bad at first, but here is the catch: you are not allowed to know what the ingredients are in the vaccine, not even through the Freedom of Information Act. Furthermore, if you have complications resulting from the vaccine, such as an allergic reaction to an (unknown to you) ingredient, an illness, or even death, you (or your family if you died) CANNOT seek legal compensation. Considering the more recent Vioxin/Vioxx shenanigans, this is something to seriously mull over. I personally prefer to be the one deciding what enters my body, and I like to know what it is too! What happened to freedom of choice? (Indeed, such a law would be infringing upon many other freedoms guaranteed by the first amendment.)

Besides, even if some people chose to risk being unvaccinated--just as some would choose to risk being vaccinated--and an unvaccinated one became ill, what do those vaccinated have to worry about? They are protected by their vaccine, right? So there is no need to force vaccination upon someone who does not wish it.....unless the vaccine does not actually prevent disease like the pharmaceutical companies, the doctors, and the politicians claim they do. Or perhaps one of those unknown ingredients has a rather alterior motive.....

Biodefense II is not law yet, but please keep a look out for it. They may try to tag it onto something completely unrelated like they did with the REAL ID Act, or propose it at such a time that congress cannot sufficiently debate it (or even read it for that matter!) like they did with FASCIST, oops, I mean PATRIOT ACTS.

Loads of fun!

the controversy of vaccinations

Yes there is a controversy. Amazing what we are not told, huh? Sometimes what you don’t know, can hurt you!

When discussing vaccines, it is important to keep in mind the following:

  • long-term studies (that is, over months or years) are not performed.
  • the early claim of vaccine “success” did not take into account the improvements of living standards and sanitation occurring before & during their introduction, nor even acknowledge the already decreasing occurrence of the diseases for which these vaccines were created.
  • the negative effects are often glanced over or ignored, even when the disease being vaccinated against increases after mass inoculations for it.
  • preventative options other than vaccinations are not discussed openly or adequately researched.
  • often those pushing a certain vaccine have a personal investment in it—that is, there are conflicts of interest, particularly financial ones.
  • vaccines are full of known or potentially harmful substances, such as formaldehyde, mercury, aluminum, the “dead” disease itself, and products derived from animals (for those vegetarians and vegans among you).
  • finally, imagine being an infant 6-weeks old and having multiple shots full of such ingredients bombarding your immature immune system. What long-term ill effects are we ignoring?
To avoid massive quoting, I am simply going to provide links to certain sites that have already gathered enormous amounts of information on vaccines. Please check these places out!

Many of these sites provide links to other organizations and websites dedicated to informing the public about vaccines. Don’t be afraid to do a little research of your own.

As a final note, I want to mention that animal vaccinations are more often than not unnecessary and harmful. The same amount given to a komondor (weighing 100-150 lbs) is given to a miniature poodle. Giving booster shots every year—even every few years—is almost completely unnecessary! There is even that not-so-odd occurrence when a pet gets ill and dies right after receiving its vaccinations or boosters.

A Personal Story: Indy, a lemon beagle belonging to my beau’s family, and quite healthy, is taken for a check-up & his boosters. Within two days he is seriously ill. The vet is surprised to find out that suddenly Indy has a serious cancer. The cancer spreads through his bloodstream. A week after the shots, he is dead. Obviously the only change in Indy’s life was the vaccine booster shots. Sometimes it is not so obvious or not so quick, and we do not make the connection between illness/death and vaccines.

As I said earlier, what you don’t know can hurt you and even kill you.
