A new law just passed in Massachusetts imposes fines of up to $1000 per day and up to a 30 day jail sentence for not obeying authorities during a public health emergency. So if you are instructed to take the swine flu vaccine in Massachusetts and you refuse, you could be facing fines that will bankrupt you and a prison sentence on top of that.
The YouTube video below is of a news report about this disturbing new law. In particular, pay attention at the 1:40 mark when the anchor and reporter discuss the new penalties for not obeying the health authorities during an emergency.....

Come on! This is crap and you know it.
We're from the government and we're here to help you,
When do the Red Sox and Patriots take their shots?
I don’t need it and I won’t take it. Colorado had better not try this garbage.
I'd prefer to see the wording of bill before I start typing in all caps.
They’re not forcing me to take some barely tested vaccine. There will be mass class action lawsuits across the country if they try this. There are probably a lot of leftist environmental wackos who won’t even go for it.
Last I heard, the vaccine will require two shots.
You're going with the assumption that this is an accurate report.
gnip...
My 5 YO has it right now. It is no more severe than a MILD cold. He doesn’t even act sick. (And we are going to vaccinate the entire population with the inherent risk for this? What is going on?)
Don't Inject Me (the Swine Flu Vaccine Song) by the Health Ranger
We ought to tell our leaders: 'Not until you are injected first. Then I will wait six months to see if you are still alive without any adverse side effects . . .'
If it needs explaining, I wasted my time.
I am not gonna take it. I will pull my kids out of school if they are forced to take it. NOT gonna happen. Fine me, yea right, I refuse to pay it just as I refuse to acknowledge their authority over MY body and health and that of my kids.
The only thing wasting your time is using Google results as some sort of research.
I WILL NOT take this flu vaccine.
No way.
It would also be a bonanza for the company that makes the vaccine..
Really? And it's swine flu?
Then maybe that's what we all had here earlier in the month. Runny noses, sneezing, coughing, tired, a little achey, low-grade fever, itchy throat and eyes...none of us missed any work with it.
We made jokes about it being swine flu, but we were just kidding around.
Hmmm...that would make us all immune now and not in need of any stinkn' vaccine anyway.
Not that I'm going to let anybody inject me....I don't care what the thugs decree.
And, as you may have already assumed, IT ISN'T:
Here is a part of the actual law:
An individual who is unable or unwilling to submit to vaccination or treatment shall not be 405 required to submit to such procedures but may be isolated or quarantined pursuant to section 96 406 of chapter 111 if his or her refusal poses a serious danger to public health or results in 407 uncertainty whether he or she has been exposed to or is infected with a disease or condition that 408 poses a serious danger to public health, as determined by the commissioner, or a local public 409 health authority operating within its jurisdiction.
Remember, this law is only in the case of declared martial law, and the chances of swine flu becoming so severe as to necessitate the declaration is practically nil.
But then again, the actual facts never stopped some around here from going nuts, time after time.
