The (Strong) Case Against Forced Vaccinations, Masks & Lockdowns

 


This is not a dissertation on whether or not vaccinations, masks or lockdowns are good or bad. It is simply about whether or not people should be forced to cede their God-given human rights to any authoritarians that believe they know what is best for us, and wishes to impose his or her will on others, regardless of the reason.

Dictators dictate.They are tyrants. In America, tyranny is not permitted. And tyrants will always find an excuse for their authoritarianism. Today, that excuse is Covid-19, whether it is mask mandates, or forced vaccination, or contact tracing. And there is no doubt that any "leader" who leads by force is not governing - he or she is not leading at all. They are RULING, by force and decree. And that is also in violation of the Constitution and even our basic rights as humans. America was founded on the first principle of self-rule, and our elected leaders are chosen to serve the people, not rule over them. The people, not the leaders, are supreme according to the Constitution, and our rights do not become mere privileges by a decree of elected officials or their un-elected appointees. Nothing changes that - not war (interment of Japanese in WWII "for the public safety" was illegal), not natural disaster (it was illegal during hurricane Katrina for leaders to confiscate guns "for public safety") or disease (it would be illegal to mandate masks or vaccines) even under the pretext of  the "public safety".

Uninformed people might use the reasoning that no person has a right to endanger the lives of others, which may be true to an extent. Yet, that is done every time a person imbibes in alcohol, or gets behind the wheel. We put others peoples' lives in jeopardy every day, and we all accept those risks. But more to the point...

A person who does not wear a mask (which studies have repeatedly shown are useless in controlling spread of a virus) is not endangering anyone if he or she is not infected. The uninfected cannot spread anything. And even if he/she becomes infected, if the infection is known, THAT person must be quarantined until the infection is gone, but if the infection is not known (asymptomatic), studies have shown and the CDC concurs that asymptomatic people cannot spread a virus. And even if they could,  he or she can only infect others who have CHOSEN to take the same risk and not wear a mask. That is THEIR choice to make. Each of us has a right to choose the risks we are willing to accept, whether it is the risk of a dangerous vocation (i.e. soldier, telephone lineman), or the risk of infection by not wearing a mask. Even if EVERY PERSON who chooses not to wear a mask (or get a vaccine) were to become infected and even die, that is STILL THEIR CHOICE! Our bodies, our choice. Such people pose zero threat to anyone else but those other independent people making that same choice. If a person can choose to be a soldier and risk death, or drive a car and risk other peoples' lives as well as his own, then that same person has the right to not wear a mask or accept a vaccine.

If I do not get the vaccine, I am no threat to those who have been vaccinated. And while I could pose a threat to other non-vaccinated people, they, like myself, CHOSE that risk, which is the God given right of every human. If they are unwilling to accept that risk, they can simply get vaccinated.

The same is true with lockdowns, which, by the way, have been proven to exacerbate the pandemic. But that is not the issue. The issue is this - those who CHOOSE to "play it safe" are perfectly free to stay home. Those who accept the risks of being out and about, enjoying life, are entitled to THEIR choice, since it threatens no one who chooses to stay home. In the end, the revelers enjoying life may or may not take losses (their choice) but will end up with herd immunity, and able to enjoy life to it's fullest. But those who locked down must eventually come out - and they will NOT have herd immunity. The virus will still be there, waiting for them. They gave up their freedoms and  destroyed their lives for naught.

Officials in Sweden knew this, and they are doing fine. But in every country that utilized lockdowns, and mandated the wearing of masks are suffering a new bout of the virus, because the virus is STILL THERE, and those countries did not allow herd immunity to build.

As for a vaccine - even Bill Gates admitted a Covid-19 vaccine could kill 700,000 people. That's nearly as bad as the virus itself! And it is likely to only be 40% effective, like other flu vaccines. And it will not protect for life, as herd immunity would - the vaccine must be taken each year.

On a side note: vaccines work by suppressing the immune system, which sets the stage for other diseases to wrack the body later. The REASON the virus kills people is because our immune systems are already compromised by countless other vaccines,  poor nutrition, underlying conditions and age. That is precisely why it kills mostly the elderly and those with underlying conditions. And studies indicate that many of those underlying conditions were caused by immune systems already weakened, often by previous vaccines.

As for masks - the REAL scientific studies - even the ones originally promoted by the CDC and W.H.O. - have shown time and again that masks simply do not work, and can even make things worse. You can find all those legitimate studies online. Or, you can simply believe the misinformation being put out there by the mainstream media which is fed to them by the very people who have a financial stake in vaccines (Fauci & Gates, by the way, are heavily invested in ALL of the vaccines being created).

And that - money - is the very reason the FDA (funded primarily by Big Pharma), mainstream media and so many of the "experts" are trying to push Hydroxychloroquine off the table. If it is proven effective, they will ALL lose billions.

And here is the reason they will have no legal authority to mandate vaccines - in 1905 the Supreme Court determined that vaccines could be mandated, BUT ONLY IF THERE WERE NO OTHER OPTIONS, and ONLY if there were a real crisis. There are other therapeutic options for Covid (HCQ), AND it is no longer a crisis. More importantly, in 1905 they believed things about vaccines that we now know are not true; that they can be very dangerous and harmful, and efficacy is low.

That's it, folks. But be forewarned - many elected officials, doing the bidding of those with a financial interest, WILL try to mandate masks (to make you more willing to get the vaccine so you can go back to normal) and WILL try to implement forced vaccinations, and the subsequent tracking that will lead to a New World Order, where freedoms and individuality will not - cannot - be tolerated.

Whether or not they succeed depends on YOU. Only we, the People have the power to stop them. But the real question is - do we have the will to fight for our lives, our freedom, our country?

America Is NOT a Democracy - it is a REPUBLIC






Article IV, Section 4 of the United States Constitution:

"The United States shall guarantee to every State i this Union a REPUBLICAN FORM of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."

America is not a democracy - it is a Constitutional Republic. And there is a very real difference, which was clearly stated when the framers of the Constitution specifically declined for America to be a democracy.

The government began calling itself a democracy with the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.With the help of other Democrats and a complicit press, he pushed constantly for the people to accept it, for reasons only the politicians seemed to understand. Even school textbooks were published that named America a Democracy - oh, it sounded so good! Being a Progressive Liberal Democrat, FDR realized that his agenda could only succeed if the people were to accept America as a democracy, and not the Republic that it was. Like today, most ordinary people were just too busy with their own lives to be concerned - or even notice - that their Constitutional Republic was slowly being dismantled.


Calling it a constitutional republic is not just semantics. There are significant differences. I would like to cover those differences by using quotes from the founders in no particular order of time with comments about each. I have studied the Federalist papers for many years as well as the Constitution. I have also studied the debates of the federal convention. We have all the information we need to know what kind of government we were given and how it functions, or I should say how it should function.

In 1823, in a letter to Judge William Johnson, Thomas Jefferson praised that the form of government we had was a Republic. It should be noted that in a democracy there is no purpose in distributing powers because a democracy or a representative democracy enacts legislation simply by a majority approving it. In a Republic, the majority cannot over-ride the rights of individuals, such as in passing laws that are not equally applied to every citizen, or "carving out" supposed "rights" to benefit only certain people or groups.

“If it be asked, What is the most sacred duty and the greatest source of our security in a Republic? The answer would be, An inviolable respect for the Constitution and Laws — the first growing out of the last. … A sacred respect for the constitutional law is the vital principle, the sustaining energy of a free government.” –Alexander Hamilton, Essay in the American Daily Advertiser, 1794

In recent years we have seen a very clear and distinct disrespect of the Constitution being fomented by a certain political group and party. They call to eliminate the Electoral College, because they want  a simple majority rule. They  ignore freedom of speech when they do not agree with that speeech, and the freedom to worship unfettered is curtaied, and often insulted. The right to keep and bear arms is under direct assault, and they have no use for due process if it gets in their way. They have said so on the floor of the House and the Senate.

In the days of the Framers, such persons would have been tried for sedition.


In Federalist 39 Madison states the definition of a Republic as the constitutional convention held it: 

“If we resort for a criterion to the different principles on which different forms of government are established, we may define a republic to be, or at least may bestow that name on, a government which derives all its powers directly or indirectly from the great body of the people

One of the founders, in one of his commentaries noted the internal inclinations of a democracy, as opposed to a Republic:

“The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness which the ambitious call, and ignorant believe to be liberty.” –Fisher Ames


And John Adams: “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.”  

"A democracy, consequently, will be confined to a small spot (i.e. D.C). A republic may be extended over a large region (i.e. the entire country). James Madison Federalist 14 

But perhaps the most specific dissertation was by Madison:

"From this view of the subject it may be concluded that a pure democracy, by which I mean a society consisting of a small number of the citizens, who assemble and administer the government in person, can admit of no cure for the mischiefs of faction. A common passion or interest will, in almost every case, be felt by a majority of the whole; a communication and concert result from the form of government itself; and there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party or an obnoxious individual. Hence it is that such democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths. - James Madison Federalist 10

At one point or another ALL of the founders decried a democracy in favor of a Republic. Since FDR, democrats and progressives have been determined to change that so they can wrest control from the people ad unto themselves. And if they have to dismember the Constitution piece by piece - which they are doing - then so be it. And with it will go our power, and subsequently our liberties and freedoms.

The short take - in a democracy a small number of elitists and politicians can make all decisions by a majority rule amongst themselves, to grow government and their own power. In a Republic, the majority cannot trample over the rights of individuals, and the role of government is limited to the 8 powers listed in Article 1 Section 8.  That all stopped with FDR.
