Man Suffers Suspected Heart Attack While Under Arrest For No Mask
Rebel News ^ | 08/03/21 | Alexandra Marshall

Posted on 08/03/2021 2:09:00 AM PDT by Enlightened1

A video emerged on Instagram showing an elderly man exercising in the Brisbane Botanical Gardens without a mask on Monday. The man was stopped by four police and handcuffed at the scene.

Brisbane is currently in a snap lockdown with harsh Covid restrictions that include wearing a face mask at all times when outside the home. Despite having a medical exemption that allows him to exercise without a mask, police persisted.

The man peacefully complied with directions. His partner answered police questions in an attempt to stop them from taking the distressed man away.

He then suffered a seizure at the scene, at which point his partner tried to render assistance while the police removed his handcuffs.

Police allegedly joked when he had a seizure that they did not believe he had heart problems that warranted the mask exemption. The man’s heart medication was revealed to be in a plastic bag in his backpack.

See? Do you believe me now, you pricks?” said the man’s partner, as the medication was taken out.

The woman took over treatment after police put the medication down in front of the man, who was by this stage unable to help himself.

He can be seen falling to the ground and then violently thrashing around on the pavement, gasping for air while handcuffed.

Instagram user _josephmerlino, who claims to be the man’s son, took to social media to voice his distress at the way his father was treated by police enforcing Queensland’s health orders.

Quarantine means isolate the sick, not everybody. And this for something no worse than the flu? Keep it up, you and your wanna be tyrants. Mess around and find out.

The usage is important. The way you people think, only liberals like you get to define what a straw man is. And it’s pretty much anything from our side that you don’t like. When you pump up false numbers from the cdc, that’s not a straw man to you so it’s not a straw man for anybody. Because you’re the authoritative one right? Wrong.

“Amongst”? I submit to you, friends, that this is no Texan. This is nothing but an out-of-state liberal pretending to be a Texan.

Masks save lives! Or at least in this case, not wearing a mask killed him. And Police Karens.

Scientific debate is a joke. It took debating scientists about one hundred years to put the correct head on a brontosaurus.

Vaccines, HCQ and Ivermectin is available for treatment and nobody in the FDA is approving these meds for public use. Just make them OTC and let people treat themselves like they do with a cold or any other ailment.

It’s absolute proof lockdown work like it or not the Aussie prove that truly draconian lockdown do stop an airborne virus which is entirely reasonable without person to person contacts there is no way for a virus to jump from host to host that much is simple science.

The Nazis made really good tanks. Sharp uniforms, too.

That's proof right there ... or something.

Isolation stops host to host transmission of virus. Well duh!
Once isolation ends the virus becomes rampant. Blaming this on carriers who refuse isolation begs the question. Can the virus be eradicated? There is no reason to believe so.
The question we must answer is, are we willing to sacrifice our civilization to the threat of a disease that kills a fraction of the weak and the infirm and a miniscule number of otherwise healthy victims?
Are we at a point wher we panic at the first sniffle? Or is there some more nefarious force at work?
Why are we being lied to day after day? Those in authority have created an environment in which they are manifestly untrustworthy.

Lockdowns work until you unlock. So unless Australia plans to stay lockdown forever and increase the death rate caused by ridiculous lockdowns, there will be a surge after lockdown. Herd immunity and early treatment with drugs that are known to work is the only way to defeat this, not lockdowns or experimental vaccines that are destroying our health.


In some countries, people are at low risk. They will have few people harmed by the wuhan coronavirus regardless of what they do now or in the future.

Why September you ask because that’s when the US military is requiring every person to have been vaxed and they won’t until it’s FDA approved so the writing on the wall is approval happens in September or late August.

Guess the command to destroy the military’s ability to do its job came down from Chyna.
