Horrors of vaccination exposed and illustrated: $b Petition to the President to abolish compulsory vaccination in Army and Navy
Higgins, Chas. M. (Charles Michael)
Vaccination
Under our Basic Charters, just quoted, the sovereign right and
power rests in the People, and the Government has no rights or
powers, whatever, except as conferred by the People. QUESTION:
Where have our State or National Governments obtained the
right to force any medical remedy or operation upon citizens
against their will and consent? Where have these governments
obtained the right or power to force an infectious and deadly
disease upon the human body in defiance of the will and the
right of the citizen? Have the people ever given up their
most sacred essential and unalienable right to the sanctity
and security of their own bodies and to their free choice and
right of selection in the medical treatment of their bodies?
This is surely one of the great “unalienable,” “reserved” and
“retained” rights which the people have never given up to any
government, and which the Legislature or police power has no
right to invade. _C. M. H._
KEYNOTE NO. 4: PREËMINENT RIGHTS OF THE INDIVIDUAL DECLARED BY U. S.
SUPREME COURT.
“There is, of course, a sphere within which the individual may
assert the supremacy of his own will, and rightfully dispute
the authority of any human government, especially of any free
government existing under a written constitution, to interfere
with the exercise of that will.” _U. S. Supreme Court in
Vaccination case of Jacobson, 1904._ Note: This decision also
held that vaccination could not be legally forced upon any
persons who could show that it was dangerous to their health or
life.
KEYNOTE NO. 5: COMPULSORY VACCINATION IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
“It may be conceded that the Legislature has no constitutional
right to compel any person to submit to vaccination.” _Judge
Woodward, of New York Appellate Court, in Viemeister case in
1903._
“If the Commissioner of Health had the power to imprison an
individual for refusing to submit to vaccination, I see no
reason why he should not also imprison one for refusing to
swallow a dose. But the Legislature has conferred no such power
upon him, if, indeed, it has the power to do the like.” _Judge
Gaynor in Supreme Court, Brooklyn, N. Y., 1894, case of Smith
vs. Emery._ This decision was fully sustained by the Court of
Appeals.
KEYNOTE NO. 6: MEDICAL COMPULSION AND DOMINATION JUDICIALLY REBUKED AND
MEDICAL FREEDOM ASSERTED BY NEW YORK COURT OF APPEALS.
“I concur in Judge Chase’s construction of the statute. But I
would go farther. I deny the power of the Legislature to make
it a crime to treat disease by prayer.” _Decision of Chief
Justice Willard Bartlett, of New York Court of Appeals, in
“Christian Science” case of Willis Vernon Cole, 1917._
KEYNOTE NO. 7: GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO FORCE A MEDICAL DISEASE OR
OPERATION UPON THE PEOPLE.
