Listening to this woman cry out “I’m a U.S. citizen” as she is dragged and shoved into an unmarked SUV brings to mind the lyrics of the Lee Greenwood song. The iconic song of pride and freedom. But it’s just a song; kidnapping in broad daylight is the norm and freedom is decided by masked goons.

We can’t even get the country of origin on packaged food, or should I say, packaged substances sold for
human consumption.
Just two examples:
Where are they made and with products from which country(ies)?
We can do so much better on labelling items to be consumed or used on or near individuals.

Working in research is a passion, an endless trudge through the mire to seek the questions. Occasionally it concludes with a new understanding but more often it does not. And on it goes.

In ON, private clinics are offering diagnostic imaging with the sales line of “Peace of Mind is a Scan Away” as opposed to being based upon the recommendation of a qualified practitioner or as part of a provincially supported screening program.
How does this mesh with the Canada Health Act?

The “third lesson” describes the risk of a measles infection.
Individuals with vaccine concerns should have those discussion with their clinicians. If they remain opposed (without a medical reason) then they need to accept that they may be helping spread the disease.

Sadly so true.
Regardless of our more educated society we still fall for the ruse of conspiracies.
It’s really not very different than how in the past we decided that harmful events were caused by “witches” or lack of sacrifices to the “gods”.

That is an excellent but unfortunate summary.
I mentioned last week that it appears that our societies have become like binary code; you are either a 1 or a 0 with nothing in between, ahead or behind.

Consider the technique used to subdue this individual.
This police officer in the foreground is kneeling on the arm above the elbow and holding the wrist of the same arm.
The elbow is a hinge and pivot joint,
but it cannot “hinge” backwards. Pulling the wrist upward would cause excruciating pain!

It’s similar to how teenage pregnancies drop off by the time young ladies mark their 20th year. Sometimes science can’t explain everything; sometimes it takes many deeper dives; opinions from non-professionals or comments from basement scientists, soothe sayers, crystal sorcerers orTarot readers .
