Call Sacramento even if you’re pro-vaccination

What do you do when you’re pro-vaccination and pro-parental-rights?

Because that’s what most parents are – they’ve followed the government’s and medical establishment’s instructions to let their children be injected with parts of disease-causing microorganisms, called vaccines. And they also believe strongly in defending their God-given parental rights to raise and educate their own children.

Yet pro-vaccine parents need to realize something important: both the establishment and the natural medicine folks agree that a vaccinated person is a walking disease-spreader!

The FDA quietly reported in 2013 that “…individuals immunized with an acellular pertussis vaccine may be protected from disease, they may still become infected with the bacteria without always getting sick and are able to spread infection to others…” How long is the newly vaccinated person able to spread disease to others? For three weeks, says the FDA.

I wrote long ago that we are setting up the younger generation for a potential calamity. See, vaccines give you plastic immunity. They build up only one line of your immune system, the antibody system, and put the main immune system (cellular immunity) to sleep. You need both for fully developed immunity.

Vaccine immunity has been shown to wane with time. And sadly, current measles outbreaks are being blamed on parents who refuse to give immune damaging vaccines to their children, when Chinese and American data shows otherwise.

You won’t hear the latter in the news though, but I will tell you! If I had a school age child now, I’d rush him over to the house with measles (or chicken pox, etc.) to play games there. When my child would get measles, I’d give plenty of vitamin A and also ozone therapy. I’d run the virus out in about half the time or less (by experience with other viruses).

Obviously, there’s two sides with legitimate beliefs and valid concerns. And there are parents who support vaccines and parents who don’t. And if you support parents’ rights, you must support the basic right of loving parents to make health decisions for their own children.

And if you support parental rights and informed consent (this means the risks of vaccines are disclosed and understood before you agree to any shot), you’ve got to oppose the Democrats’ SB 277 and SB 792.

I’m excited that the California Chiropractic Association is opposing mandatory vaccination because of the risks of vaccines. They say this is about informed consent and parental rights – and they’re absolutely correct!

Please call Sacramento today to oppose the Democrats’ bills attacking your medical freedom. See our alert and take action today.

Join us in saying no to ‘recreational’ marijuana

You may have heard that highly potent “recreational” marijuana legalization could be placed on California’s 2016 ballot.

You’re concerned and so am I. Remember, SaveCalifornia.com strongly opposed marijuana legalization in 2010, and we celebrated that was known as Prop. 19 was ultimately defeated.

But now, with virtual legalization in California already taking its toll, and children being damaged by marijuana in the few states that have legalized it, the evidence is mounting on why highly potent pot and a “stoned” culture is a very bad idea.

Today, I talked on the phone with our anti-marijuana colleague James L. Lambert and we both committed to reignite our MarijuanaHarmsFamilies.com campaign if full-blown marijuana legalization returns to the California ballot.

So please stand with SaveCalifornia.com as we stand for God’s best for children and families…which is definitely not “stoned” families and a “stoned” culture!

Heavy marijuana use in the teenage years could damage brain structures vital to memory and reasoning, a new study suggests. The study found changes in the sub-cortical regions of the brain, which are part of the memory and reasoning circuits, NBC News reports. Young people who had changes in this region of the brain performed more poorly on memory tests than their peers who did not use marijuana. The heavy marijuana users in the study had not used the drug on average for more than two years before the memory testing occurred.

The most important thing for parents

Every parent wants to think of themselves as a “good parent.”

But “good” is a result, not merely an intention. Because, most of the time, virtuous adults come from good parents who do good training of their children’s minds and bodies, and good ministry to their children’s hearts and souls. This is where great-character adults come from!

And think about this — we’re all going to die. Then the only people alive will be the children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren of those who are gone. Ask yourself, “What kind of adults are we shaping in our children?” What we do and say here answers the other question, “What kind of world will we leave our children?”

For the principled parent, all this means purposefully, lovingly, courageously, and consistently training your child’s character. It means having the goal of building a better adult that you are. Because this is the key way to make society better. Think about that!

To help parents to prioritize shaping their children’s character, SaveCalifornia.com has put together these top picks for humble dads and moms.

Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
