Governments that add fluoride to drinking water supplies insist that it is safe, beneficial and necessary, however, scientific evidence shows that fluoride is not safe to ingest and areas that fluoridate their drinking water supplies have higher rates of cavities, cancer, dental fluorosis, osteoporosis and other health problems.

Fluorosis doesn't cause a docile mind. You made a specific claim. I don't see the scientific evidence for your claim. Yes, any substance in high enough levels can be toxic, cancer causing, etc. You can kill yourself drinking too much water. There is marginal debate whether or not we're getting too much fluoride in commercial products in addition to drinking water. |

back to the top censored stories - i don't see anything there about blackwater - the mercenaries responsible for deaths of iraqis and others; paid for by taxpayer funds - "outsourced" military if you will - trying to build up their "forces" by establishing training camps in the u.s. over and above what they have now -
are you all up on this? i can dig up a link if you don't know what i'm talking about - but just google "blackwater" and Jeremy Scahill, he wrote a book about them, reports on them a lot.
they were down in NO after Katrina hit, terrorizing the locals.... |
Yes, BLACKWATER clearly in the business of freely terrorizing whoever they damn well please
Likely reminds a few people of the School of the AmeriKas
Post whatever you like, if you think it will be of benefit to readers understanding the sheer criminality.
How much was actually censored though? Under-reported? Wasn't a lot laid out for the whole world to see & take into account.
Still, as is usually the case, ZERO official action is being taken  |

Another more alarming danger that's been covered up by the current fascist government: dihydrogenmonoxide

Maybe they're all taking a page out of your play book. Do nothing of substance. Got that data on how 1 ppm of fluoride in the drinking water makes humans "docile"? |
