"Brazen weapon fire chills police; Gangs obtaining more assault rifles; Victim, 12, still has bullet in leg" by Maria Cramer and Brian R. Ballou, Globe Staff | July 30, 2009
The gang shoot-out that rained gunfire and smoke on a quiet Dorchester street this week disturbed police on many levels: the seemingly new height in disregard for neighborhood safety, the fact that a 12-year-old girl watching TV inside a nearby house was shot through the leg.
But even more alarming: At least one of the weapons used in the gunfire was an AK-47 assault rifle, the fourth time in three weeks that one had been found or used in Boston....
What fortuitous timing, 'eh?
Police say they are noticing more of the fearsome firearms on Boston streets than last year and, in particular, are concerned that there have been so many in the past three weeks....
Commissioner Edward F. Davis said: “Everybody understands when they read the morning paper that you have to push as much as you can to get these guns off the street.’’
Unless the security forces are toting them, right?
The guns have surfaced as Boston police have pushed to provide more of their own officers with M16s, high powered semiautomatic rifles. In May, the Globe reported that police had ordered about 200 M16s free of charge from the US military and made plans to train dozens of officers and arm them with the rifles.
Why does the idea of PLANTED "EVIDENCE" begin to come to mind?
The plan elicited sharp criticism from Menino, who said only specialized units should have the guns, and community leaders who decried the lack of public notice.
Yesterday, Davis said he would not use the recent incidents to make a push for arming patrol officers with the guns. But he said the department would probably expand its SWAT team operations so that more officers could be placed in the specialized unit and trained on M16s.
Davis said he also plans to increase the hours of the SWAT team operations so that there are more gun cars, police cruisers armed with the assault rifles, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
And HOW MUCH is that going to COST TAXPAYERS as services we need are slashed and gutted?
“Clearly there is a problem out there,’’ he said. “We have to make sure the community and the officers are protected.’’ Davis said he believes the AK-47s probably were first available in American gun stores, but somehow made their way into the hands of criminals.
Community leaders and gun control advocates yesterday said many of the illegal guns in Massachusetts likely come from states like Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, where private gun owners can sell their weapons to anyone without requiring background checks.
Bruce Wall, the pastor of the Global Ministries Christian Church in Codman Square, said he is planning to hold a prayer summit on the steps of the New Hampshire State Capitol in Concord, N.H., to get the attention of public officials and call on them to tighten their laws.
Gun control not only doesn't work, it's unconstitutional -- a bitter truth for this peaceful, formerly pro-gun control Mass. lefty. Still peaceful.
“We’re going to pray for the trafficking of guns to stop,’’ he said. “Those gun shows in those states are making a lot of money off people in Massachusetts. Now the criminals are using weapons that can outpower what the police have.’’
C'mon, man.
Yup, can't turn to the preachers, which makes you wonder about them.
"Leaders urge action to curb a lethal trend; Police, ministers hasten to address assault gun use" by Maria Cramer, Globe Staff | August 1, 2009
Despite a dip in violent crime, including a steep drop in the number of homicides, Boston police and Mayor Thomas M. Menino told ministers and community leaders yesterday that they are grappling with another problem: the sudden rise in the number of assault rifles on city streets.
Yesterday, police found another AK-47-style gun, an assault rifle manufactured in China, while executing a search warrant at a Dorchester apartment. Along with the rifle, they found a bag with 500 rounds of ammunition and a 9mm handgun. The rifle was the fifth such weapon found or used in the past three weeks, a trend Commissioner Edward F. Davis said is worrisome.
Several ministers, who met with police at a Roxbury housing development, agreed. The Rev. Eugene F. Rivers III, pastor of Azusa Christian Community, called it a major problem facing the black community, which leaders must address immediately. Many of the guns have been found in minority neighborhoods.
“The existence of terrorists who use AK-47 style assault weapons is a major challenge to black leadership in the city,’’ Rivers said. “The black church leadership, the NAACP, the urban league, and black elected officials must step up, because if the black leadership does not put up a red light, that will mean a green light to the terrorists in the community.’’
Well, THEY ARE NO HELP when it comes to TRUTH and RATIONAL THOUGHT! How INFLAMMATORY! Makes you REALLY, REALLY WONDER at WHOSE TOOLS they are and why.
***********************
What particularly alarms officials is that so many guns have surfaced in such a small amount of time. Davis said police do not know why....
Yeah, what a COINCIDENCE, huh?
Just as you were about to put away the ASSAULT WEAPONS.
(Blog editor's note: I no longer believe in coincidence when it comes to the events that shape our world)
The discussion about guns marred otherwise positive trends in crime, including a 24 percent drop in homicides compared with this time last year.....
Rapes and attempted rapes are up.... but aggravated assaults, robberies, and burglaries have all seen dips....
Wow! They REALLY DON'T CARE about you ladies in Boston, huh?
See: Boston Cops Advise Women: Just Sit Back and Enjoy It
Still, the Rev. Jeffrey Brown, who runs the Boston TenPoint Coalition, said he is concerned by the destructive weapons police described: “We’re working very hard to reduce violence in the community, but if there is a prevalence of assault-style weapons on the street, we have to make that one of our highest priorities.’’

"State takes extra steps to battle flu in fall; Deputizes dentists, others to help with vaccinations" by Stephen Smith, Globe Staff | August 13, 2009
Massachusetts health authorities took the unprecedented step yesterday of deputizing dentists, paramedics, and pharmacists to help administer vaccines against both the seasonal flu and the novel swine strain expected to make a return visit in the fall....
The actions illustrated the intensifying sense of urgency as health authorities, hospital administrators, and clinic executives across the nation confront the prospect of providing hundreds of millions of doses of vaccine....
Also see: Schools to be Swine Flu Infection Centers
In Massachusetts, disease specialists are expecting to provide up to 9 million flu inoculations within the next few months, three times as many as last flu season, because of the need to give two doses of swine flu vaccine. In Boston, the city health agency plans to offer shots during the day, night, and weekend. There is a chance that retired health workers will be pressed into service to provide vaccinations to adults and children, with many patients needing three visits for all their inoculations.
Knowing they are in a race against viruses that emerge suddenly and spread swiftly, private medical practices are also bracing for an onslaught.... Part-time employees will be asked to work longer hours to deliver half-a-million vaccine doses....
“It’s going to require all hands on deck,’’ said Dr. Alfred DeMaria, the top disease tracker at the state Department of Public Health. “We have to get everybody who’s a target for vaccine vaccinated, and we have to get enough people to give the vaccine.’’
I don't want to be "targeted" for elimination, I mean, vaccination.
What is sad is I used to believe in doctors. Thanks for wrecking that, too, globalist murderers.
The campaigns carry a substantial price tag: The federal government is purchasing the nation’s entire allotment of vaccine against swine flu, known scientifically as H1N1, and has given Massachusetts $10.4 million to defray costs associated with vaccination drives and testing.
Well, let's "hope" that LOOTING is ALL they are up to -- although I very much doubt it. These people running our nation are literally sick.
Dr. Marylou Buyse, president of the Massachusetts Association of Health Plans, said she expects insurers to cover the costs of administering both types of flu vaccine in traditional settings, such as hospitals and physician offices. Her group is reviewing whether those expenses will be covered when plan members get their shots at vaccination drives in schools, government clinics, and elsewhere.
The first truckloads of vaccine against seasonal flu are expected to rumble into Massachusetts later this month, and agencies such as the Boston Public Health Commission are developing major campaigns to persuade people to get shots....
That's what the lying, agenda-pushing, cover-up Globe says; I'll bet they are already here waiting and ready to go now.
90 percent of Massachusetts adults and children fall into categories recommended to receive seasonal flu vaccine.
“If we are successful, we will reduce the burden of illness around seasonal flu, which would keep people from overwhelming the doctors’ office and the hospitals with seasonal flu illness while we wait to be able to vaccinate the target populations for H1N1 influenza,’’ said Barbara Ferrer, executive director of the Boston health agency. That vaccine should start arriving in October.
I think it is already here.
Based on the experience so far with swine flu - it disproportionately struck the young - vaccination drives will target pregnant women, children, young adults, health care workers, and patients with respiratory and cardiovascular complications and other serious chronic health conditions. About half of Massachusetts residents are in these target groups. Because their immune systems are like blank slates, having never encountered this strain of H1N1, they will need two vaccinations, a few weeks apart.
That's because the damn thing is MAN-MADE in a LABORATORY!
Older adults will not be a major focus of swine flu campaigns. In Massachusetts, only 1 percent of confirmed cases of the disease have been in people 65 and older. Since it was detected in April, the virus has killed 10 people in Massachusetts, 436 nationwide.
Yeah, leave us old fucks devoid of our beloved young ones and women as we try to carry on the fight with our wrecked and broken bodies. WE CAN SEE, s***ters, and YOU BETTER STOP NOW!!
When you HAVE NOTHING LEFT to LOSE...!!!!
The twin vaccination campaigns will present a daunting challenge for state and local public health agencies nationwide, faced with budgets sorely depleted during the recession.
Oh, they will "find" money for this.
“There’s a workforce issue, but there’s also a significant communication and education issue so that the public can clearly understand there’s a difference between the seasonal flu vaccine and then dose one and dose two of your H1N1 vaccine,’’ said Jim Blumenstock, an executive at the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials.
Hoping to bolster the army of health professionals capable of vaccinating patients, the state Public Health Council -an appointed body of doctors, consumer advocates, and policy specialists - voted unanimously yesterday to enlist medical workers not normally involved in flu immunization campaigns. That could add up to 21,000 volunteer dentists, pharmacists, and paramedics.
“If you have many people coming, you want more lanes open,’’ said Dr. Lauren Smith, medical director of the state health agency. “One of the ways we overcome barriers to immunization is to make it as easy as possible.’’
The president of the Massachusetts Dental Society, Dr. David Samuels, said it was logical to tap dentists, already adept at giving injections for root canals and other treatments.
Related: FDA Has Holes in its Head
Let 'em rot and fall out, folks.
A Massachusetts Hospital Association executive said her group supports the emergency regulation aiming to boost vaccination rates among health care workers. The rule would allow employees to decline vaccination.
“It’s a population we want to make sure gets immunized,’’ said Dr. Alan Woodward, a member of the Public Health Council. “We can’t afford to lose them to illness in the midst of a pandemic.’’
Of course, if they are killed off the rest of us are even weaker, aren't we?
And CUI BONO?

The fact that the AGENDA-PUSHING Globe sees fit to editorialize on the subject doesn't make me feel any better:
"Flu battle hits home
THE FIGHT against swine flu is putting the public back in public health. And Massachusetts’s plan for the expected resurgence of the flu when schools reopen this fall will work only if parents, employers, and schools all do their part....
Children will have to wait longer for their swine-flu shots. Vaccinations will not be fully available until mid-October, and there will likely have to be two inoculations, three weeks apart. Full immunity will come weeks after that. Until then, the front line in fighting swine flu will be school nurses, family physicians, and parents.
Opponents of federal sick-leave legislation have long insisted that the government doesn’t have to step in for employers to do right by their workers. The expected rise in swine flu this fall will test that theory....

"Antiviral marketing; Amid fears flu is headed back to school, too, germ fighters fill store shelves" by Jenn Abelson, Globe Staff | August 13, 2009
Merchants aim to pry open consumers’ wallets with a back-to-school campaign they hope parents will jump on: killing germs.
Related(?): Going Back to School Shopping
The ATTEMPT to PROFIT off this is SICKENING!
Amid heightened concern about a possible resurgence of the H1N1 virus this fall, retailers are promoting an expanded selection of sanitizing products to help guard against swine flu.
CVS is featuring displays full of merchandise designed to stop the spread of germs, including hand wipes, vitamin C supplements, and pen-spray hand sanitizers. Bath & Body Works is promoting antibacterial products with huge signs plastered around its stores that say “Spread Love, Not Germs!’’ And Target is offering tissue boxes that kids can color with crayons.
“Our goal is to help customers easily find and identify products to help prevent the spread of germs for when children go back to school,’’ said Mike DeAngelis, a CVS spokesman. The push for protection comes as merchants struggle to cope with tight consumer spending heading into the second-biggest shopping period of the year, behind the holiday season....
Oh, STINKOLA!!!!!!!!
NPD Group, a market research firm in Port Washington, N.Y., says consumers plan to spend significantly less this year on footwear and apparel, making it even more important for retailers to capitalize on germ-fighting supplies.
I'm not feeling too good, a-choo!
“The H1N1 virus only supported consumers’ interest in protecting themselves and families against unseen bacteria,’’ said Bruce Cohen, consumer products strategist for the consultancy Kurt Salmon Associates....
Katherine Kaplan, whose daughter is entering kindergarten at Foxborough Regional Charter school, has a list provided by the school of items to pack for the first day of school: tissues, Clorox or Lysol wipes, hand sanitizer, Mr. Clean Magic Eraser sponges, and a package of scrubby sponges.
“I haven’t purchased anything yet,’’ she said, “but I will buy the hand sanitizer at the Dollar Tree and sponges at Ocean State Job Lot and wait for sales at Target, Benny’s, CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid for the other items.’’
Why is EVERY SOURCE in the Globe either a Jew or a crypto-Jew?
Germ-X, a leading hand sanitizer brand, may get a big boost in sales this fall because of concern about H1N1 when students return to school, said Kristin Ebert, a spokeswoman for Vi-Jon Inc., which manufactures Germ-X. The company this year added several new fragrances, along with a portable 1-ounce purse spray and individual wipes, to make sanitizing on the go more convenient.
Almost as if they KNEW something was coming, huh?
“Our goal is to ensure that we are doing everything possible to have products on the shelf for those consumers as that extra peace of mind,’’ Ebert said.
Cha-ching!
The small Germ-X sanitizer is being promoted for $1 or less at Wal-Mart. OfficeMax recently added Purrell Wipes to its offerings. And Walgreens has displays at the end of aisles where it is running sales through the school shopping season, including “buy 1 get 1 free’’ for the store brand 1-ounce hand sanitizers.
“This year, we’re expecting to see a significant increase in sales for these kinds of products because of the H1N1,’’ said Robert Elfigner, a Walgreens spokesman. State health officials are putting together a packet for parents on H1N1 that will include recommendations about things like using hand sanitizers and other ways to prevent the spread of germs.
How much TAX DOUGH is going to be WASTED there?
Frequent hand-washing is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of H1N1, according to health officials. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are effective, too.
Oh, GOOD, because I AM now OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE now and WASH MY HANDS ALL the TIME!!!!!
But “We know that most classrooms do not have a sink, so alcohol-based sanitizers are really effective, and we are encouraging parents to send children with little bottles of sanitizers,’’ said Jennifer Manley, a spokeswoman for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
Jim McManus, who was hospitalized with flu this summer, is planning to send his two children to school in Boston equipped with hand sanitizer in their backpacks. “It was awful,’’ he said of the flu. “The schools better be ready for it with hand sanitizer, flyers for the kids and parents, and the vaccine when it comes out in October.’’

"8 cities line up for swine flu vaccine test" by Associated Press | August 11, 2009
ST. LOUIS - Hundreds of Americans in eight cities are lining up for experimental swine flu shots in a race to get a vaccine out before the new flu virus sweeps the country this fall.
Do you know what a TELEGRAPH is, readers?
It's an AGENDA-PUSHING PAPER for a REASON!
Sharon Frey, who is leading the government-funded testing at Saint Louis University, said scientists have been working late nights and weekends to organize the studies and recruit volunteers. About 2,800 people will participate in the government-led studies. Saint Louis University will test 200 adults and 200 children. Also under way are separate studies by five flu vaccine manufacturers under contract with the government....
Participants will be given combinations of two swine flu vaccines made by drugmakers Sanofi Pasteur and CSL Limited and a seasonal flu vaccine. Frey said the data will be turned around quickly for review by the Food and Drug Administration.
Oh, yeah, the FDA is really trustworthy.
Health officials are haunted by the swine flu vaccine campaign in 1976, which was stopped after unexpectedly high numbers of patients suffered a paralyzing condition called Guillain-Barre Syndrome. While it’s not clear the vaccine was to blame, the government wants to carefully monitor people who get the new vaccine for problems....

What the agenda-pushing enabler of mass-murder won't tell you.
Early Monday, Sarakas rolled up his sleeves for an injection in each arm, becoming one of dozens of adults enrolling in an unprecedented flurry of fast-track flu vaccine trials that will grow to include 11,131 adults and 5,740 children, with more trials planned.
Flu vaccines historically have few side effects beyond redness and soreness at the infection site. Studies of several thousand volunteers aren't big enough to detect more subtle side effects such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare nerve ailment that crops up in one of every million flu vaccine recipients. Federal health agencies have ramped up surveillance efforts to detect any severe side effects that might occur.
"Well, what a cozy little, "do as you're told, little mushrooms, if vaccination becomes mandatory piece" of propaganda!
As reported in

"In 1976 there was a swiner flu pandemic in the US and there was a vaccine offered. of those who decided to take it, one in ten died, and young people who took it were paralysed.
It could be contaminated. In the UK the company that is supplying a large proportion of the vaccines contaminated flu vaccines with live bird flu virus."
There is no way that the testing can fully vet the effectiveness - and side effects - of this vaccine before its deployment in the fall.
Also, as reported in:

"Adjuvants are added to vaccines to make them more “effective” and to reduce the amount of vaccine required per dose. They do this by causing your immune system to react in a powerful, unnatural and potentially dangerous way to the presence of the organism you’re being vaccinated against.
Squalene is proving to be among the worst of the worst in terms of immune adjuvants.
We know at least two of the swine flu vaccines under development by drug companies will contain the oil-based adjuvant squalene. Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline are producing those vaccines, and it’s probably just the tip of the iceberg because:
In a July 13 WHO swine flu pandemic briefing note in which they list their latest recommendations on vaccines, they state:
“In view of the anticipated limited vaccine availability at global level and the potential need to protect against "drifted" strains of virus, SAGE recommended that promoting production and use of vaccines such as those that are formulated with oil-in-water adjuvants and live attenuated influenza vaccines was important.”[7]
Translation: WHO is now specifically recommending the production and use of vaccines containing oil-based adjuvants.
Also on July 13, HHS Secretary Sebelius committed another $884 million -- in addition to the $1 billion committed in May -- to purchase two key ingredients of the H1N1 vaccines under development. The key ingredients are:
1. The antigen (the active ingredient or organism)
2. The adjuvant
"'Tamiflu turned my children into hallucinating, sobbing wrecks' Perhaps Mr Burnham would have liked to come round to my house and explain the merits of Tamiflu to my three-year-old daughter as she sobbed and retched in my arms night after night. While he was at it, perhaps he could take the time to scrub our sitting room floor, once James, our exhausted 15-month-old boy, had vomited so many times that his tiny stomach could heave up nothing but bright orange phlegm. This is to say nothing of the raging fevers, nightmares and hallucinations which plagued both our children until we decided they could take no more. The effects of swine flu? Not a bit of it. My wife and I are utterly convinced that all these symptoms were, quite simply, the vicious side effects of Tamiflu.
"Tamiflu and Relenza Ineffective Against Flu As I've explained previously, "...viruses and bacteria are very simple structures that can mutate easily. Antibiotics and antivirals work by attacking a single structure in the pathogen, leaving the rest of the pathogen intact." Those viruses with natural resistance to the drug manage to survive the assault...and then replicate without constraint. It's a process of natural selection accompanied by optimum growth potential. Antibiotics and antivirals literally "breed" the strains of viruses and bacteria that are most resistant to them. In addition, those viruses and bacteria can then mutate to become even more resistant, creating super strains of the pathogens that ultimately render the drug completely useless.

"After long slide, fertility rates rising in richer nations, study hints" by Elizabeth Lopatto, Bloomberg | August 6, 2009
NEW YORK - Childbearing is making a comeback in the world’s wealthy industrialized nations, including the United States, after fertility dropped in the late 20th century, a study suggests....
Absent immigration, a smaller workforce may leave countries burdened with the costs of maintaining infrastructure, causing national economic declines, said study author Hans-Peter Kohler....
Still gotta push the illegal agenda, huh? Never frikkin' ends.
The finding amounts to a partial reversal of the fertility declines seen in the late 20th century fueled by a combination of factors, including birth control, the increased costs of childrearing, the entry of women into the workforce, and more years spent becoming educated, Kohler said.....
So THAT is WHY the POPULATION REDUCTION PLAN is being implemented: WE are LOVING LIFE MORE!!!!
Yup, we LOVE LIFE here in AmeriKa -- and it pisses off the evil globalists to no end.
Replacement-level fertility is the level at which a couple has enough children to replace themselves. A replacement rate in countries with a long life expectancy is about 2.1, because some people die before having children....
Of the countries measured, only Israel has a higher fertility level in 2005, with a rate of 2.82....
