Dear Colleague,
Here is a special Thanksgiving announcement I'm very happy to make. A few
months ago I (Tedd Koren) was contacted by the president of the Arkansas
Chiropractic Association. He was very upset. A federal judge had just
declared the Arkansas immunization exemption laws unconstitutional!
Arkansas law does not permit philosophical exemptions so by losing
religious exemptions it was "roll up your sleeves" time for
chiropractic kids and others who didn't want to get shot up with 77
vaccines by age 5. I called Jim Turner, Esq. to discuss this being a
battle the new Foundation for Health Choice could take on for health care
freedom.
Jim agreed - we are in our first battle. Although we are very new with
supporters just beginning to help, we've fired the first shot in the
battle to reclaim our health care freedom, and this first shot is no
pop-gun, it's a FEDERAL CASE.
Now here's the GREAT NEWS! The Foundation for Health Choice has filed an
amicus brief in 8th circuit Federal Court of Appeals challenging the
Constitutionality of mandatory vaccinations. This is an historic document
that has the potential to declare all state laws that mandate
vaccinations unconstitutional.
This brief is an opening move in an entire campaign for fight for health
care freedom. Please let us know of any legal battles you know of so we
may continue this work in the legal arena. We are fighting for freedom in
the US (and Canada and Europe).
Here is the actual press release that is going out to all the wire
services. If you'd like a full copy of the entire historic brief see the
bottom of this post:
FEDERAL COURT
CHALLENGE
TO MANDATORY IMMUNIZATION
RAISES ISSUE OF CONSITUTIONALITY
Petitioners cite risk to life without
due process
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - The constitutionality of
mandatory vaccines, based on the expectation they will kill a certain
number of children and substantially harm others, is now being challenged
in federal court.
"The lives that are lost by this program are lost without even a
pretense of due process," states the "friend of the court"
brief filed in conjunction with an Arkansas case being heard by the
Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis. The brief, submitted
jointly by the Washington, D. C.-based non-profit consumer groups
Foundation for Health Choice and Citizens for Health, also cites a recent
federal court ruling against the death penalty.
In that decision last April, a judge for the Southern District of New
York found the federal capital punishment law unconstitutional based on
findings that some of the people facing execution were actually innocent
of the crimes for which they had been sentenced.
That same case logic should now be applied to the current situation that
is bound to result in the deaths of innocent children, according to the
brief.
The vaccine case, as originally heard in two federal district courts,
involves some 125 children whose exemptions from inoculations on
religious grounds were at issue, with a lower court judge ruling that the
exemption was too restrictive. Through their intervention, the two health
organizations have sought to broaden the significance of the case to that
of a life-and-death issue - the first time such an argument against
immunization has been raised in the courts, according to James S. Turner,
the Washington, D.C. attorney who submitted the brief.
Mandatory immunizations are a routine requirement for attending school,
but without any procedures in place for parental participation in
determining the need for such shots or the adverse effects they might
have on certain children..
The brief contends that "the body of law justifying mandatory
vaccine programs contains limitations on the state power to force
vaccination." It refers to the need for a demonstrable emergency
(e.g., a threatened or actual epidemic); requires a medical opt-out for
vaccine-endangered individuals, and recognizes conscientious objecting.
The petitioners also call for "interested families" to be
involved in a procedure for determining who is likely to be harmed by
each vaccine, and "a way of prioritizing which of the nearly 20
vaccines currently administered to each child and at what age ... will most
protect the community at the least health cost."
Is This Freedom?
Parents
cannot decide what's best for their children. By the time most children
are 5 they are must be injected with 77 vaccines; over 200 new vaccines
are in production, and many will become mandatory. Your
children may not enter public school/many private schools and colleges
unless they are vaccinated while MDs, school and health care workers
don't inform people of their legal exemption rights.
Laws are
being proposed making vaccines mandatory for adults; if your
"vaccine papers" are not up-to-date won't be able to travel by
plane, rent a hotel/motel room or a car according to proposed new
legislation.
Bureaucrats can take your children from
you if you don't vaccinate them; if your newborn doesn't have synthetic
Vitamin K injections or nitrous oxide in their eyes.
Autism
spectrum disorder, allergies, asthma, attention deficit disorder,
hyperactivity, dyslexia, vision and hearing deficits, pervasive
developmental disorder, cancer, arthritis, diabetes and many other
conditions that were rare are increasingly being linked to mandatory
childhood vaccinations.
Doctors
who use safer alternatives may be fined, lose hospital privileges,
arrested, and lose their license to practice.
Medicine
is at least the 3rd and quite possibly the leading cause of
death in the US. Medical care may bankrupt this country by 2040. Hundreds
of thousands of people die each year from Adverse Drug Reactions of
properly prescribed FDA approved drugs, medical mistakes, malpractice and
hospital infections while AT THE SAME TIME...
Alternative health care providers' freedom
to practice and teach is restricted; many Americans are forced to travel
to foreign lands at great expense and risk to avail themselves of less
toxic health care that is illegal in the US;
Organized
medicine, the pharmaceutical companies and government agencies not only
refuse to change this state of affairs,
they support
it.
Had enough? Want to go on the
offensive?
We're the Foundation for Health Choice.
We're organized medicine and the pharmaceutical industry's worst
nightmare!
We'll fight for your
children's freedoms! For your professional freedom! For your personal
freedom!
