Generally I steer clear of this kind of controversy, but I have one
comment that I think may be helpful to anyone posting information about
health issues: be sure that any "attacks" do not invite or advocate violence.
hum, then you might want to make this suggestion to our government.
I mention this because I did read the interesting attack on Pasteur posted
on the the Matrixcide web site.
well, pasture did a lot of harm to a lot of folks...so maybe some folks get
a bit steamed.
The author of this sometimes highly intemperate essay at times clearly
advocates physical violence against MD's involved in vaccination
programs. The author unambiguously advocates shooting them. This is
not a mere rhetorical device or hyperbolic outburst; the author
evidently is quite sincere in advocating the deaths of those who would
impose vaccination. He makes this statement several times in the essay.
i have not read the essay, but there are folks that take strong issue with
forced vaccination feeling that the vaccination will harm them and their
children with lifelong illness if not death.
I note that the author of the essay is NOT the person running the web
site. Nevertheless, it seems to me that a person who posts such advocacy
without taking the trouble to distance himself from such comments runs the
risk of being seen as a potential source of violence himself.
so, that would be personal choice, right?
Further, I know that experts in bioterrorism are extremely worried
about public hysteria in the event of an epidemic/pandemic, and worry
about necessary measures for quarantining those whose refusal to follow
epidemiological guidelines might imperil others.
ah, the "necessary" measures...and i just wonder who will start the
epidemic/pandemic?
This whole issue is a can of ugly, writhing, toxic snakes, and even the
best people in the field can come to differing conclusions about the
proper course of action in an emergency.
again, hum, and who will "manufacture" the emergency.
The point here is simple, though:
if I were among these folks, essays advocating the murder of doctors would
make me very worried indeed. I would want law enforcement people to keep
an eye on those advocating such actions.
homeland "insecurity" is recruiting ordinary folks to do just that, keep an
eye on your neighbors. let's all join.
In summary, I think that the misdeeds of doctors, politicians, and anyone
doing wrong need to be exposed. However, those who advocate violence are
very likely to do great harm to their own cause, and to bring unwanted
attention to themselves and others associated with them.
again, might want to offer that suggestion to our government. as it is the
US now has unwanted attention and we are all at risk by being associated
with them.
I think Mr. Devour should be aware of this aspect of the web site that has
brought about the controversy.
i think mike is full aware of most all that goes on. hum, what should he
do, slap someone on the wrist?
but if i don't stop i might get slapped on the wrist...sorry mike. i am
zipping it up. sometimes you just can't refuse tho, ya know?
a rose...
