FORCED MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING FOR YOUR CHILDREN

"Can the liberties of a nation be thought
secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the
minds of the people that these liberties are of the gift of God? That
they are not to be violated but with His wrath?" --Thomas Jefferson: Notes
on Virginia Q.XVIII, 1782. ME 2:227

In his September 14, 2004 commentary,
Congressman Ron Paul blasted the latest Communist ideology being put forth
by President Bush:

"A presidential initiative called The
“New Freedom Commission on Mental Health” has issued a report recommending
forced mental health screening for every child in America, including preschool
children. The goal is to promote the patently false idea that we have
a nation of children with undiagnosed mental disorders crying out for
treatment......The greater issue, however, is not whether youth mental
health screening is appropriate. The real issue is whether the state owns
your kids. When the government orders “universal” mental health screening
in schools, it really means “mandatory...The political right has now joined
the political left in seeking the de facto nationalization of children,
and only informed resistance by parents can stop it. The federal government
is slowly but surely destroying real families, but it is hardly a benevolent
surrogate parent.”

Anyone who has followed the draconian
legislation coming out of Washington, DC for the past few decades doesn't
buy the "recommending" label for a NY second. The shadow government working
towards the destruction of a self-reliant, independent, sovereign America,
take their steps incrementally and test the masses for resistance before
they thrust the dagger. Make no mistake: when the timing is desirable,
whether it be Bush or Kerry, recommending will become mandatory "for the
children."

Such blather is nothing more than a
tool of tyrants. To better understand the game plan, let me quote the
author of The Great Communitarian
Hoax
, The Voices of America's Destruction and Masters of Seduction,
Jeri Lynn Ball:

"Americans are being trained by slow
degrees to give up their individuality, independence and autonomy (their
unique personal traits, their desires and personal ambitions, their intellectual
capacity to direct their own lives). Since individuality is the basic,
indispensable property of every living human being, the degree to which
he strives to wipe out his own individuality (become selfless) is the
degree to which he experiences feelings of helplessness and instability.
Individuals who unwittingly embrace the Soviet slave philosophy, i.e.
community values (or the Communist morality), including altruism (selflessness)
and collectivism (loss of the individual in the collective mass), proceed
to disintegrate both mentally and physically. They may manifest an array
of symptoms ranging from anxiety and chronic depression to despair and
suicidal feelings to alcoholism and drug abuse. A growing number of Americans
now suffer from eating disorders, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive
disorders and schizophrenia.

"Ritalin is now being given to almost
4 million children, which is more than twice the 1990 number. In 1997,
about 3 million teenagers contracted a sexually transmitted disease. There
are twenty dangerous sexually transmitted diseases that are now rampant
among the young, including herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis and chlamydia.

"Soviet and American leaders have been
achieving the ideological and psychological convergence of the United
States and Communist Russia. America is becoming a replica of Russia:
sick, brutal, deviant, vulgar and violent, yet slavish and submissive
toward governmental authority. Virtually every major problem facing America
today is the result of the Communists' war against the mind and their
attack on this country's founding principles. Using the mixture of political
indoctrination and the specter of ruthless mass terror, communitarian
and mind-subverters have been overwhelmingly successful in their attempt
to make selflessness a mass phenomenon and to produce profound feelings
of instability, helplessness and worthlessness in many Americans."

Jeri Lynn Ball is a gifted writer,
a thorough researcher and understands the toxic formula for creating the
"new Communist American" like very few in this country. Sadly, most Americans
will pay no attention because Dan Blather, Tom Brokenjaw and other media
gasbags have been convincing the American people for over a decade that
"Communism is dead!" Ha! That's exactly what the shadow government wants
you to believe.
