evidence bushgang hates children

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/this_world/4038375.stm



New York's HIV experiment


HIV positive children and their loved ones have few rights if they choose to battle with social work authorities in New York City.


Jacklyn Hoerger's job was to treat children with HIV at a New York children's home.

But nobody had told her that the drugs she was administering were experimental and highly toxic.

"We were told that if they were vomiting, if they lost their ability to walk, if they were having diarrhoea, if they were dying, then all of this was because of their HIV infection."

In fact it was the drugs that were making the children ill and the children had been enrolled on the secret trials without their relatives' or guardians' knowledge.

Spokesperson Vera Sherav said: "They tested these highly experimental drugs. Why didn't they provide the children with the current best treatment? That's the question we have.

Power and authority

When I first heard the story of the "guinea pig kids", I instinctively refused to believe that it could be happening in any civilised country, particularly the United States, where the propensity for legal action normally ensures a high level of protection.

But that, as I was to discover, was central to the choice of location and subjects, because to be free in New York City, you need money.

murdering bastards


note this from the article:

"They're essentially out of control," said family lawyer David Lansner. "I've had many ACS case workers tell me: 'We're ACS, we can do whatever we want' and they usually get away with it."

(Administration for Children's Services)


america is not beautiful, we are not free and we are far from brave.

2. yes we are peasants.
I point that out to some freeper like mindlessnesses and they think that peasants only mean brown people from poor third world countries with a hoe and locusts and mud nuts.

I'd call living in your car and flipping burgers without health insurance pretty peasantry as well.

3. This has been debunked
There are people out there who claim that HIV isn't what causes AIDS, and that therefore the anti-retroviral cocktails are exactly the wrong treatment. The BBC got this story from a couple of them. See http://respectfulofotters.blogspot.com/

4. ive forstered children for 15 years
these children are "wards of the state".
these children are "files" not humans to the system.
when parental rights are terminated, no one protects them from the machine. it is a black hole.
i adopted 3 "unadoptable" siblings 9 years ago as a single parent, and continue to foster little newbies to the system.
