And this atrocity just drools on.

The ICC Investigation Continues
...But they do know something about Kaletra. It causes cancer. It says on the label, that this drug causes cancer in test animals."
These children have a legal guardian, yet that legal guardianship was violated when said guardian refused to enter the child into a drug regimen.
The children at ICC are often orphans with no parent to consent to their being drugged with extremely toxic substances. What is the legal precedent
for entering these children, the society’s most needy, in drug studies with toxic substances? This practice gives the impression not of organizations
"legally empowered" to care for the children, but of organizations who are exploiting the children’s powerlessness.

The children from ICC are buried in a mass grave at "Gate of Heaven" cemetery, which is the property of New York’s Catholic Archdiocese. This
grave site holds the bodies of orphans from any number of catholic institutions and orphanages. This is a mass grave. According to a cemetery
representative, the children are buried two or more to a coffin. How many come from ICC? They won’t say.
This is the type of behaviour government can be predicted to follow.
Some of us already know this, but there are many who seem to think
that 'the American government
just won't do this sort of thing, not here, in America'.
We were discussing this very behaviour in
Bush plans to screen whole US population for mental illness
The tragic thing about all this is that
people who support mandatory public health care ignore these things.
