That's murder, he ... That's murder, he was already sick, you never vaccinate when sick as it makes you sick, so making a sick? child sicker, is assault in my mind if you use a club or a biological weapon, either way, he died, they stuck him in the arm, there you go.

International ... International pharmaceutical companies have been? using poor, third world countries as drug testing grounds for decades, this is not news, it is in fact criminal.

There will be ... There will be justice in this world or the next. Genocide- just like w/Guatemalans, native Americans, southern blacks, Indians, etc. Study the history of these companies....you will know they have been this way since at least the 1930's- thanks to nazis. Some nazis were? brought over from Germany to the U.S. to continue mind control experiments instead of prosecuting them. This stuff should be all over the front pages.
