When you sow the wind...

you reap the whirlwind...

A quick note from Jenny:

Those of us in the Psychiatric Survivor Community have watched this most recent assassination in Arizona with a sort of detached horror.

Many of us have been speaking out for so long that we have grown weary, and even numb, to yet another atrocity likely connected in some form or fashion to psychiatric medications.

It has not yet been reported which psychiatric medications have been ingested during the life of the shooter, the media seem to want to pin this one on Pot and illegal drugs.

But I want his full psychiatric history going back to his early childhood to be fully disclosed in the press, and I am calling on the authorities handling this case to make certain this one is not covered up the way that the Virginia Tech shooter was.

I was on my Facebook page today and came across this image posted by one of my friends:

As a former Bradley Childbirth Educator I was incensed that this type of attitude exists in American Obstetrics, not surprised, just enraged.

You Medical people claim to care about our "Welfare" and the health of our unborn children???

And yet you refuse to work with parents who have been educated on how to give birth to their children without drugs?

We are sowing the wind with our children with the use of all of these medications; Pregnancy and Birth Drugs, Psychiatric Meds while breastfeeding, Vaccines, Antibiotics, and Behavioral Meds when their little bodies and minds reel from the toxic overload.

The Bradley Method is a problem and Dr. Andrew Wakefield is the Devil Incarnate??? NONSENSE!!!

Sometimes I feel so sickened by the lies, I just want to scream in frustration.

It is time for parents to throw off the shackles that bind them. No more Medical Slavery for us or our families.

Two stories blazed across the headlines today...

The House of Representatives voted to overturn the healthcare bill and World Net Daily is reporting that the new Governor of Hawaii can't find Obamas Birth Certificate.

What this means is that every piece of legislation that the fake President has voted on these past two years is null and void and the deadly Mothers Act is dead in the water...now we just need to send his foreign ass out of the White House in the biggest Ass Kicking America has ever seen.

No more Medical Slavery and Global Medical Fascism!

Guarantee you that Jared Loughlin has been under psych care, and has been on anti-depressant medication.

If the American public were fully aware of the derangement these drugs produce in people, they'd be banned over night.

Agreed. I just wonder how long it will take for the truth will come out...Jen

Agreed. I just wonder how long it will take for the truth will come out.

The war we're in for our nation's survival has many fronts. The abomination of mind-bending psych drugs is but one of them. The People have a long fight ahead, to claw back power from the traitors and monsters who've taken it from us.

I believe that we are on our way, and are making progress, but it will be many seasons before we begin to see the carefully erected towers of the corrupt elites fall into the streets.

Stay strong. The People's day is coming.

I have often thought that the greatest contribution I could make to the cause was simply to raise my own family holistically. It has been very difficult...but they are my hope and joy.

I have often thought that the greatest contribution I could make to the cause was simply to raise my own family holistically.

Sounds like we're on the same page, Jenny. My wife had all of our kids at home, using natural childbirth methods. We had a great midwife - Leslie Stewart, of Los Angeles.

We elected to home school all four of them, as well. As you say, it's tough, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My kids are head and shoulders above their peers, and are becoming the kind of Americans this country is going to need, going forward.

I was a Bradley teacher with my husband Paul for eight years and this foundation of natural family living was the springboard to most of our lifestyle decisions since.

My children are feisty and strong willed, and that has made parenting them a challenge, but that Free Will is what being alive is all about.

Nice to meet you!

By CCHR International

10 recent massacres were committed by those under the influence of psychiatric drugs resulting in 54 dead and 105 wounded

Every single time there is a school shooting, or some senseless massacre, the press are quick to start touting the need for more mental health treatment to “prevent” these tragedies—well before the facts of the case have been investigated. In fact, most of the press don’t appear as interested in bringing the facts to light as they are in making “recommendations” based on assumptions and calling for more mental health services/treatments. How one can make recommendations before finding out what actually occurred seems illogical to us, and we’re hoping we’re not the only ones. What also seems illogical is the lack of direct questioning and demand for answers given the facts already known about prior massacres/shootings, such as: The majority of those who committed such acts had already undergone mental health “treatment,” and were already on psychiatric drugs. Drugs documented by international drug regulatory agencies to cause violence, mania, psychosis, hallucinations, suicide and even homicidal ideation.

In the case of prior massacres/shootings, what has repeatedly occurred is that when the facts finally came out, due solely to the efforts of those few determined investigative reporters (such as Fox National News reporter Douglas Kennedy), and it was revealed that the shooter had been under the influence of psychiatric drugs, or in withdrawal from them, most of the press were quick to counter the drug/violence connection by featuring some Pharma mouthpiece touting the “there is no evidence that these drugs cause violent or homicidal behavior” line.

Really? No evidence? There have been 22 International Drug Regulatory Agency Warnings on psychiatric drugs causing violence, mania, psychosis and even homicidal ideation. These warnings have been issued by drug regulatory agencies in the United States, the European Union, Japan, The United Kingdom, Australia and Canada.

And consider that just last week, TIME Magazine reported on a study from the Institute for Safe Medication Practices that “based on data from the FDA’s Adverse Event Reporting System has identified 31 drugs that are disproportionately linked with reports of violent behavior towards others.” And out of the Top 10, 8 were psychiatric drugs.

From Time Magazine: “When people consider the connections between drugs and violence, what typically comes to mind are illegal drugs like crack cocaine. However, certain medications — most notably, some antidepressants like Prozac — have also been linked to increase risk for violent, even homicidal behavior.

The Top 10 included the Antidepressants Pristiq, Effexor, Luvox, Paxil, Prozac, ADHD Drugs, Strattera and the Anti-Anxiety drug, Halcion.

Now, to be perfectly clear, we’re not saying for a fact that Loughner was taking psychiatric drugs at the time of the shooting, or in the past, which studies show can cause long-term damage long after an individual has stopped taking them. We’re saying, why aren’t the press finding out? Consider that 10 recent massacres were committed by those under the influence of psychiatric drugs documented to cause mania, psychosis, violence and even homicide, resulting in 54 dead and 105 wounded—and those are just the ones we know about. In several cases, medical records were sealed or autopsy reports not made public or, in some cases, toxicology tests were either not done to test for psychiatric drugs, or not disclosed to the public. But let’s just consider what we do know about the mental health “treatment” of those who committed these acts of violence:

Dekalb, Illinois – February 14, 2008: 27-year-old Steven Kazmierczak shot and killed five people and wounded 16 others before killing himself in a Northern Illinois University auditorium. According to his girlfriend, he had recently been taking Prozac, Xanax and Ambien. Toxicology results showed that he still had trace amount of Xanax in his system.
Omaha, Nebraska – December 5, 2007: 19-year-old Robert Hawkins killed eight people and wounded five before committing suicide in an Omaha mall. Hawkins’ friend told CNN that the gunman was on antidepressants, and autopsy results confirmed he was under the influence of the “anti-anxiety” drug Valium.

Jokela, Finland – November 7, 2007: 18-year-old Finnish gunman Pekka-Eric Auvinen had been taking antidepressants before he killed eight people and wounded a dozen more at Jokela High School in southern Finland, then committed suicide.

Cleveland, Ohio – October 10, 2007: 14-year-old Asa Coon stormed through his school with a gun in each hand, shooting and wounding four before taking his own life. Court records show Coon had been placed on the antidepressant Trazodone.

Blacksburg, Virginia – April 16, 2007: 23-year-old Seung Hui Cho shot to death 32 students and faculty of Virginia Tech, wounding 17 more, and then killing himself. He had received prior mental health treatment, however his mental health records remained sealed.

Red Lake, Minnesota – March 2005: 16-year-old Jeff Weise, on Prozac, shot and killed his grandparents, then went to his school on the Red Lake Indian Reservation where he shot dead 7 students and a teacher, and wounded 7 before killing himself.

Greenbush, New York – February 2004: 16-year-old Jon Romano strolled into his high school in east Greenbush and opened fire with a shotgun. Special education teacher Michael Bennett was hit in the leg. Romano had been taking “medication for depression”.

El Cajon, California – March 22, 2001: 18-year-old Jason Hoffman, on the antidepressants Celexa and Effexor, opened fire on his classmates, wounding three students and two teachers at Granite Hills High School.

Williamsport, Pennsylvania – March 7, 2001: 14-year-old Elizabeth Bush was taking the antidepressant Prozac when she shot at fellow students, wounding one.

Conyers, Georgia – May 20, 1999: 15-year-old T.J. Solomon was being treated with antidepressants when he opened fire on and wounded six of his classmates.

Columbine, Colorado – April 20, 1999: 18-year-old Eric Harris and his accomplice, Dylan Klebold, killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded 26 others before killing themselves. Harris was on the antidepressant Luvox. Klebold’s medical records remain sealed.

Notus, Idaho – April 16, 1999: 15-year-old Shawn Cooper fired two shotgun rounds in his school, narrowly missing students. He was taking a prescribed SSRI antidepressant and Ritalin.

Springfield, Oregon – May 21, 1998: 15-year-old Kip Kinkel murdered his parents and then proceeded to school where he opened fire on students in the cafeteria, killing two and wounding 22. Kinkel had been taking the antidepressant Prozac.
So, given the fact that these shooters were on psychiatric drugs, given the fact that 22 international drug regulatory agencies warn these drugs can cause violence, mania, psychosis, suicide and even homicide, given the fact that a major study was just released confirming these drugs put people at greater risk of becoming violent, here are the questions we think deserve to be answered.

1) Court records show that a case against Jared Loughner was dismissed on Dec. 9, 2008, after he completed some type of diversion program. What was the diversion program? Did it include mental health treatment or do the case notes include any information about any prior mental health treatment Loughner may have undergone? Such was the case of Columbine shooter Eric Harris’s “diversion program”, where case notes dated 4/16/98 revealed that “Eric has been having difficulty with his medication for depression. A few nights ago he was unable to concentrate and felt restless. He went to the doctor and the doctor is changing his medication.”

* Further note to press: Sometimes finding the psychiatric drug connection requires a bit more due diligence than just asking the question; case in point, following the Columbine massacre, the Coroner’s office initially reported no drugs were found in Eric Harris’ tox reports. Following this, an investigative reporter found that Harris was rejected from the military and psychiatric drug use was suspected as the cause for the rejection. When this became known, the coroner’s office seemed to find that Harris did in fact have the antidepressant Luvox in his system.

2) The Wall Street Journal reported, “One high-school pal said Loughner had become suicidal”. Considering the FDA has issued black box warnings that antidepressants can cause suicidal ideation (as can other psychiatric drugs) was Loughner already under the influence of these drugs?

3) The press has reported that Loughner was “barred from campus pending a psychological evaluation.” So what happened? Did he get one? Was he ever in mental health treatment, or prescribed a psychiatric drug? Ever?

As a final note: Whether or not Loughner was yet another in the long list of shooters under the influence of drugs documented to cause mania, psychosis, hallucinations, aggressive behavior, suicidal and homicidal ideation—Given the international drug regulatory agency warnings & studies, the just released Institute for Safe Medication Practices study, this much we know for certain; the last thing we need is more kids on psychiatric drugs. And given what we already know about the risks of these drugs, any recommendation for more mental health treatment, meaning more people and more kids put on these drugs, is not only negligent, but considering the possible repercussions, criminal.

Why Mental Health “Advocacy” Groups Aren’t Calling for Psychiatric Drug Investigation in Arizona Shooting: They’re Pharma Funded
Note from CCHR: In the wake of the Jared Loughner shooting in Arizona, we pointed out that the press seemed more interested in featuring Pharma-funded mouthpieces speculating on why Loughner wasn’t “treated” (drugged) and using this tragedy to start banging the drum for more government funding for more mental health treatment, (drugs) before even bothering to find out whether or not Loughner was, or had been, on psychiatric drugs. The logical question for anyone concerned with mental health would be; Was Loughner yet another in the long list of mass shooters already under the influence of psychiatric drugs documented to cause mania, psychosis, violence, homicidal and suicidal ideation that have resulted in 54 dead and 105 wounded in 10 such similar massacres? Isn’t that something we should know before spending billions more dollars on a pharmaceutically based mental health agenda? Shouldn’t we be investigating that instead of using this tragedy to get more funding for mental health “treatment”? So let’s just cut to the chase. The most prominent “mental health” groups using this shooting to cry out “give us billions more funding,” are themselves, funded by Pharma. Perhaps this sheds light on why despite the overwhelming evidence psychiatric drugs cause violence and even homicide, groups such as the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI), which claims to be a “patient’s rights” organization for the “mentally ill” are not calling for an investigation of what, if any role, psychiatric drugs played in this or any other mass shooting in the last 10 years, we are.

Study: Drug firms fund health advocacy group

The Chicago Tribune – January 13th, 2011
by Judith Graham

Many health advocacy organizations rely on financial support from drug companies. But few disclose the extent of that funding or make information easily accessible, according to a new report published Thursday by researchers at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health.

The groups often sit on important federal advisory boards and press lawmakers for greater funding for medical research, more generous reimbursement for brand-name drugs, and easy access to diagnostic tests and medical devices for people afflicted by various illnesses.

Because of this, “our feeling is that a lot more openness and disclosure needs to take place,” said Sheila Rothman, lead author of the report in the American Journal of Public Health and a professor at the Mailman School.

The study analyzed data from Eli Lilly & Co. from the first half of 2007 and found that only 25 percent of 161 organizations disclosed funding they received from the drug giant on their Web sites. Just 18 percent acknowledged Lilly’s grants in their annual reports, and 1 percent listed Lilly on a corporate sponsors page.

Lilly gave $3.2 million to advocacy groups during this period, 10 percent of all the grants awarded to doctors, medical organizations, non-profits and other entities.

Rothman called the information a “baseline picture” of how secretive organizations were about industry funding before pharmaceutical firms began releasing this information under terms of legal settlements. Lilly began releasing details of its grants in May 2007, becoming the first drug company to do so.

“These were practices at the time,” she said.

Since then some groups have changed their practices, prodded by heightened concern over potential conflicts of interest and an ongoing, high-profile investigation of drug industry funding to physicians and non-profit health groups by Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa.

While complete results of Grassley’s investigation are not yet available, some details have emerged. For instance, the New York Times reported that the National Alliance on Mental Illness received almost $23 million from pharmaceutical firms between 2006 and 2008; state NAMI chapters have received millions more, according to a letter sent to the organization by Grassley’s office last year.

NAMI now lists corporate grants of $5,000 or more for its national operations on its Web site, but individual chapters’ funding sources aren’t included. The organization has a strict policy against endorsing specific products or services, its Web site says.

Lilly targeted funding to advocacy groups representing patients with neurological or psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar illness, and depression; endocrine disorders such as diabetes; and cancer, the new report found. These were the three largest categories of U.S. sales, worth $10.1 billion for the drugmaker in 2007.

The researchers arrived at their conclusions by checking advocacy organizations’ 2007 annual reports and federal tax forms and performing a comprehensive review of their Web sites between Sept. 30, 2008, and Jan. 12, 2009. All mentions of Eli Lilly funding were noted, but some information may have been missed if it was posted on Web sites earlier.

more info/thoughts from CCHR:

I know CCHR. They've been fighting the drug scourge for decades. Great organization.

I was a Bradley teacher with my husband Paul for eight years

I'm not aware of the Bradley system of natural childbirth, but I gathered from your earlier mentions that it's a healthy approach to bringing children into the world.

My wife and I are done having kids now, but we remain strong advocates for natural childbirth methods, breast-feeding, home schooling, natural healing arts, nutrition, etc.

My children are feisty and strong willed, and that has made parenting them a challenge, but that Free Will is what being alive is all about.

I couldn't agree with you more. In many ways, I feel that I and my wife's decision to take a more natural approach to living was our first act of rebellion against the established Order of the ruling class. I believe that those early lifestyle choices eventually led us to becoming part of the staunchly patriotic, conservative community.

I also love the writings of Peter Breggin: http://www.breggin.com/

Taking personal responsibility for my own health was the most political choice I have ever made, especially with my emotional problems.

I don’t claim to be the most mentally well person, but I do claim that nutrition and alternative healing have given me a level of wellness that no one could have ever predicted, given the level of physical and emotional distress. Essential Oils have been my lifeline for 14 years.

Taking personal responsibility for my own health was the most political choice I have ever made

Asserting sovereignty over ones own body is the first step to political emancipation, in my view. Well done.
