Pregnant Woman Arrested and House Raided for Facebook Post – Meanwhile, Police Refuses to Fine BLM Thugs

Shocking video shows the Victorian police arrest a pregnant woman , in her pyjamas , in front of her family over a Facebook post .
Three Victorian police officers stormed into a woman ’ s home this weekend and arrested for for ‘ incitement.
’ The young mother had simply shared a Facebook event for an upcoming protest .
Victorian police entered the woman ’ s home unannounced and started searching through her house before showing their search warrant .
The couple , still in their pyjamas , were confused as to why the police had barged in on their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ She was being charged for incitement .
The woman ’ s crime was simply sharing a Facebook event .
The family had planned to attend an Anti-Lockdown protest in Melbourne on Saturday , August 29th , and asked her Facebook friends to attend with her .
Three armed police officers walked into her partner ’ s house unannounced , handcuffed and arrested the pregnant mother .
“ You ’ re under arrest in relation to incitement , ” the officer declared .
The couple were very confused , “ we haven ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clarified that the incitement was her sharing a Facebook post with her friends and trying to invite a protest during stage 4 of lockdown .
She begged the officers to let her go without a warning and said she could simply delete the Facebook post as she had to attend an ultrasound in an hour , but sadly the officer rejected her plea .
“ We ’ re required to seize any computers and mobile devices you have , ” the officer added .
The police then removed the phone from her partner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and tablets from the apartment for further investigation .
The arrested pregnant mother was distraught , crying , and begging to be released but she was taken down to the police station in her pyjamas and reportedly detained .
The two men who initially created the Facebook event were also charged with incitement and arrested .
Aussie field reporter Avi Yemini has since confirmed that they have been released on bail under strict conditions ; they may not post on social media until the day after the protest , and they may @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do they will be remanded until their hearing sometimes next year .
Avi Yemini slams Dan Andrews for not doing the same for Black Lives Matter protest .
“ Why didn ’ t the state deal with the Black Lives Matter rally organisers the same way .
No one was every arrested for staging that mass illegal rally , ” Avi Yemini asked in a video posted September 1 .
He then shows a clip of the Victorian Premiere , Dan Andrews , claim that it was simply impossible when asked after-the-fact .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ stop people .
If we [ inaudible ] said that we were going to close off the CBD — well — the protest would have happened somewhere else , ” the Victorian Premiere alleged .
“ You can ’ t lock 5000 , 10000 — however many thousand — people up .
You just can ’ t do it.
” Avi then points out a video that totally contradicts Premiere Andrews claims of “ it ’ s impossible !

” When pressed on the Black Lives Matter rally , Luke Cornelius falsely stated that it was different because “ nobody had died yet.
” Avi Yemini fact checked the Assistant Commissioner and clarified that 14 people had actually died before the Black Lives Matter protest in Melbourne Victoria .
Cornelius then proceeded to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bat-sh*t crazy , tin-foil conspiracy theorists.
” Is it that crazy , though ?
The CDC reported that the initial death toll from the virus in patients with comorbidities was only 6 % .
What does this mean ?
It means that the virus was rarely the cause of death for many that had tested positive , even for people with more than one condition : ie , lung cancer , obesity , so on and so forth .
That ’ s not to say that people haven ’ t fallen deathly ill @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The Victorian Premiere has extended the State of Emergency by an additional 6 months meaning that a state wide curfew , as well as more similar arrest , are just on the horizon .
This is just a very small glimpse of how life would look like in the totalitarian dictatorship that THEY call the New World Order .
Simply having an opinion that goes against the views of the powers that shouldn ’ t be can put you in jail and have your belongings confiscated .

College Students Across America Are Being Subjected to a Horrid Psychological Experiment: ‘Sentenced to Isolation Prisons’

College , long a fun and liberating experience for many young adults , has , as The Ron Paul Insitute ’ s Adam Dick details below , become a dreary and oppressive experience for many students living under the weight of a multitude of restrictions imposed at American college campuses in the name of countering coronavirus .
These restrictions are absurd from the perspective of protecting people ’ s health given that coronavirus is not particularly dangerous .
This is especially the case for the teen and twenty-something students .
For these relatively young college students , coronavirus generally poses @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , most such young adults experience zero symptoms to minor sickness from coronavirus infection .
I have written about the draconian restrictions imposed at college campuses in the name of countering coronavirus , with some focus on Duke University , Syracuse University , and the University of Texas and Texas A & M .
These are not handpicked examples of campuses whose college administrators have imposed uniquely harsh rules in the name of countering coronavirus .
The problem is present at many college campuses across America , and it is devastating for many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Jordan Schachtel has collected testimonials of students who are living in depressing prison-like conditions at college campuses across America… “ The whole thing is a bait and switch .
We ’ re being forced to pay to attend Zoom classes in our rooms all semester .
A few of my friends didn ’ t even come back to town , and I don ’ t blame them .
Why would they when they can get the same education at home ?
I only have two in person classes .
Both meet one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to go on Zoom if you prefer .
The other allows five students in class at once .
We ’ re going on shifts so Week 1 the first five go , then Week 2 the second five go , etc.
” I love this university but if I knew when I was in high school that I ’ d be staying in my room all day , I would ’ ve never gone to any college.
” “ No gatherings over 15 people .
Everyone ’ s mental health is crumbling .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ quarantine follow the rules .
School requires asymptomatic testing and there ’ s no end in sight .
“ My guy and girl friends are all miserable .
So many have been like this is prison we can ’ t do anything .
All bars closed in Louisiana .
We gather at local parks and the cops come to shut it down .
No fun ever allowed and no end in sight.
” “ They have ‘ isolation dorms ’ for COVID kids , but they are horrid .
Guys in hazmat suits @ @ @ @ @ @ @ visitors .
Nurse on call but up to 3 hour wait if you need something … kids at school now are not getting tested so they don ’ t get sentenced to the isolation prisons.
” “ Students had to sign a health pledge that they had no say in developing .
All students are confined to dorm rooms until COVID test comes back negative .
No one is allowed off campus until at least September 15 .
No visitors on campus all year .
“ School has a google form so that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is terrified of students returning .
This is in a county in Vermont that has had 5 cases and the entire state had 55 deaths .
They have cancelled all fall athletic competitions .
“ Students are back on campus , but most classes will be remote , with of course a 3 % tuition increase .
Professors active on reopening committees , so it is not surprising that they are pro lockdown .
“ Local state senator wrote to [ school president ] and called college reckless for bringing kids back .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ bubble , take the money that the college brings to the community , but have no actual interaction.
” “ Students must wear masks outside dorm rooms , can not visit another dorm , etc .
Threatened with draconian honor code violations if they violate the rules and orientation was declared all virtual at the last minute .
“ Yet today , the athletes , with permission of and active participation by the University , were permitted to organize a BLM march through campus.
” “ The first two weeks of the semester @ @ @ @ @ @ @ university , I have to stay in my dorm .
Since my college courses are all online , keep in mind without any tuition deduction , my friends and I have not gotten to leave our dorm to make friends .
One way we socialize is opening up our dorm window & talking to people who are walking to their cars or back to their dorms .
“ Another thing we have to do is take a daily COVID report , if we do not pass this test , we are not allowed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be allowed to go anywhere at school .
As well as a daily COVID report , we can only enter and exit through specific doors .
The university has cut off our keys to entering certain ways .
“ For example , if we are walking back from the dining hall , we have to walk to the parking lot behind our dorm to enter our building .
This can actually be very dangerous if we find ourselves in a situation we need to enter through the front door & can ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my classes are online .
Though they are all online , I am still required to stay on campus , pay for on campus housing , and buy a meal plan.
” “ Roommates are terrified of making a mistake regarding masks , distancing and gatherings … the President basically ‘ yells ’ everyday that this is not sustainable and is threatening to shut it all down … kids are just waiting for the hammer to drop.
” “ It ’ s horrific .
After four months of quarantine with no friends , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so we encouraged it .
I am sick with worry every day .
Not about the virus .
About the mental anguish and social isolation they are forcing on our kids.
” “ No roommates … all online classes , no in person activities , dining halls closed , libraries closed except under very strict guidance , no visiting another dorm room , 6-ft distance at all times , masks mandatory when not in dorm room , can not leave the Nashville area , circles drawn on quad area , threats of suspension/expulsion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ throughout campus to enforce rules , kids encouraged to report non-compliance , etc .
“ After having been on campus for a week , my daughter has not met nor spoken to a single person .
She is in her dorm room in front of her computer at almost all times , and the only times she really leaves are when she picks up her to-go meals .
This is a very depressing situation.
” “ All but made it impossible for Baptist Student Ministries to meet .
Their meeting rooms are on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ times a day .
People have to remain 6 feet apart , mandatory masks at all times , temperature checks as people arrive , and student ID cards have to be swiped for contact tracing.
” Student “ wants to fight back but feels helpless , not knowing who may be reporting her actions .
Very , very Soviet-like.
” “ They aren ’ t even letting kids go to class at all … it ’ s all on Zoom.
” “ We have one of the most ridiculous systems in the country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ daily health check on the ASU app which consists of 2 questions .
If by any chance you forget to do that , your college account is put on hold .
I am also a student worker … and I have to sit at a desk .
“ There is no one around me for 6ft , yet they make me wear a mask for 6 hours of my shift .
They do the same to students who are in a lab and are using the computers .
Even when there is no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wear a mask .
I still don ’ t know if masks work or not but making students wear them for hours and hours is ridiculous.
“ “ Interim suspensions if they break any of the “ rules “ including attending/participating in on campus or off campus gatherings of more than 10 .
Last weekend when we moved in our child , off-campus housing , helicopters were buzzing over the houses , there are people basically roaming around and spying on kids to bust them and we knew exactly what they were looking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s insane .
“ Daily check-in ‘ s of health prior to being allowed off campus .
If you think this generation has anxiety issues before , can you imagine what they have now ?
I get the common sense stuff but I really wondered what country we were living in with all of this excess surveillance.
” “ In June when housing deposits were due they said ‘ in person classes , no masks outside ’ no mention of tests .
All positive and happy and there ’ d be football .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ back to college as not being there … in the college environment , isolated at home was causing a lot of depression… so we let her go .
48 hours before the students move in week was to begin , OSU changed all the rules .
It ’ s a dystopian hell.
” “ Everyday , I hear of some new restriction or rule that students are required to follow .
Things have been even more significantly tightened even during this first week of school .
Perhaps the most obvious instance is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ students away from one another .
“ Before the first week of school , Housing sent a decree stating that students were prohibited to have more than one guest in our apartments or dorm rooms at a time .
This past Wednesday , three days after the beginning of the semester , a new email : we were now forbidden to have any guests whatsoever .
Over the summer , new security cameras have been installed in the hallways of all buildings , aimed at residents ’ doors.

Not allowed out of the room save for one hour a day with a mask on .
They turn off their room cards so they can ’ t escape back to their dorms .
“ We get emails weekly advising us to support our kids getting a test and ; behaving ; so they don ’ t have to close the campus .
It ’ s sick .
What are we doing ?
Why ?
If LSU does close and send the kids home we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Why pay out of state tuition for Zoom ?

I ’ m just sick about this every day .
I hope someone can break thru the COVID fog and be brave .

Cafeterias are closed with take out food and long line .
Families had until Aug 1 to decide whether to send kids and accept a no refund policy if kids were sent home .
“ This meant you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and payments even if services were no longer provided .
Of course at that time , classes reported as hybrid .

“ Most are now finally released .
Campus is now testing 3000 students a week once the general student pop returns on 9/17 .
At any time you can be forced back into quarantine for 14 days due to contract tracing .
The students are now not wanting to be around anyone else .
“ They are told to ‘ to treat every person as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ don ’ t get caught in a contact tracing web so they essentially are being told to not interact with others but were forced to live in double occupancy which now makes them judge everything the roommate does because if your roommate is contact traced you are forced back into jail.

College, long a fun and liberating experience for many young adults, has, as The Ron Paul Insitute’s Adam Dick details below, become a dreary and oppressive experience for many students living under the weight of a multitude of restrictions imposed at American college campuses in the name of countering coronavirus.
These restrictions are absurd from the perspective of protecting people’s health given that coronavirus is not particularly dangerous.
This is especially the case for the teen and twenty-something students.
For these relatively young college students, coronavirus generally poses very little risk of death. Further, most such young adults experience zero symptoms to minor sickness from coronavirus infection.
I have written about the draconian restrictions imposed at college campuses in the name of countering coronavirus, with some focus on Duke University, Syracuse University, and the University of Texas and Texas A&M.
These are not handpicked examples of campuses whose college administrators have imposed uniquely harsh rules in the name of countering coronavirus. The problem is present at many college campuses across America, and it is devastating for many students.
Over at The Mass Illusion, Jordan Schachtel has collected testimonials of students who are living in depressing prison-like conditions at college campuses across America…
University of Alabama
“The whole thing is a bait and switch. We’re being forced to pay to attend Zoom classes in our rooms all semester. A few of my friends didn’t even come back to town, and I don’t blame them. Why would they when they can get the same education at home?
I only have two in person classes. Both meet one day a week. One is optional to go on Zoom if you prefer. The other allows five students in class at once. We’re going on shifts so Week 1 the first five go, then Week 2 the second five go, etc.”
I love this university but if I knew when I was in high school that I’d be staying in my room all day, I would’ve never gone to any college.”
Tulane University
“No gatherings over 15 people. Everyone’s mental health is crumbling. Nobody is even sick and those who quarantine follow the rules. School requires asymptomatic testing and there’s no end in sight.
“My guy and girl friends are all miserable . So many have been like this is prison we can’t do anything. All bars closed in Louisiana. We gather at local parks and the cops come to shut it down. No fun ever allowed and no end in sight.”
University of Iowa
“They have ‘isolation dorms’ for COVID kids, but they are horrid. Guys in hazmat suits come … 2 week isolation, no visitors. Nurse on call but up to 3 hour wait if you need something … kids at school now are not getting tested so they don’t get sentenced to the isolation prisons.”
Middlebury College
“Students had to sign a health pledge that they had no say in developing. All students are confined to dorm rooms until COVID test comes back negative. No one is allowed off campus until at least September 15. No visitors on campus all year.
“School has a google form so that people can snitch on non-compliers. Town is terrified of students returning. This is in a county in Vermont that has had 5 cases and the entire state had 55 deaths. They have cancelled all fall athletic competitions.
“Students are back on campus, but most classes will be remote, with of course a 3% tuition increase. Professors active on reopening committees, so it is not surprising that they are pro lockdown.
“Local state senator wrote to [school president] and called college reckless for bringing kids back. They all want to live in a bubble, take the money that the college brings to the community, but have no actual interaction.”
Southern Methodist University
“Students must wear masks outside dorm rooms, cannot visit another dorm, etc. Threatened with draconian honor code violations if they violate the rules and orientation was declared all virtual at the last minute.
“Yet today, the athletes, with permission of and active participation by the University, were permitted to organize a BLM march through campus.”
University of Tennessee-Martin
“The first two weeks of the semester have been very different. At my university, I have to stay in my dorm. Since my college courses are all online, keep in mind without any tuition deduction, my friends and I have not gotten to leave our dorm to make friends. One way we socialize is opening up our dorm window & talking to people who are walking to their cars or back to their dorms.
“Another thing we have to do is take a daily COVID report, if we do not pass this test, we are not allowed to leave our dorm and will not be allowed to go anywhere at school. As well as a daily COVID report, we can only enter and exit through specific doors. The university has cut off our keys to entering certain ways.
“For example, if we are walking back from the dining hall, we have to walk to the parking lot behind our dorm to enter our building. This can actually be very dangerous if we find ourselves in a situation we need to enter through the front door & can’t because it’s locked. All my classes are online. Though they are all online, I am still required to stay on campus, pay for on campus housing, and buy a meal plan.”
University of South Carolina
“Roommates are terrified of making a mistake regarding masks, distancing and gatherings … the President basically ‘yells’ everyday that this is not sustainable and is threatening to shut it all down … kids are just waiting for the hammer to drop.”
“It’s horrific. After four months of quarantine with no friends, she was desperate to go to campus so we encouraged it. I am sick with worry every day. Not about the virus. About the mental anguish and social isolation they are forcing on our kids.”
Vanderbilt University
“No roommates … all online classes, no in person activities, dining halls closed, libraries closed except under very strict guidance, no visiting another dorm room, 6-ft distance at all times, masks mandatory when not in dorm room, cannot leave the Nashville area, circles drawn on quad area, threats of suspension/expulsion for first offense, security guards posted throughout campus to enforce rules, kids encouraged to report non-compliance, etc.
“After having been on campus for a week, my daughter has not met nor spoken to a single person. She is in her dorm room in front of her computer at almost all times, and the only times she really leaves are when she picks up her to-go meals. This is a very depressing situation.”
College in University of Texas system
“All but made it impossible for Baptist Student Ministries to meet. Their meeting rooms are on campus and have to be cleaned 4 times a day. People have to remain 6 feet apart, mandatory masks at all times, temperature checks as people arrive, and student ID cards have to be swiped for contact tracing.”
Student “wants to fight back but feels helpless, not knowing who may be reporting her actions. Very, very Soviet-like.”
University of Dayton
“They aren’t even letting kids go to class at all … it’s all on Zoom.”
Arizona State University
“We have one of the most ridiculous systems in the country. You are supposed to submit a daily health check on the ASU app which consists of 2 questions. If by any chance you forget to do that, your college account is put on hold. I am also a student worker … and I have to sit at a desk.
“There is no one around me for 6ft, yet they make me wear a mask for 6 hours of my shift. They do the same to students who are in a lab and are using the computers. Even when there is no one around you you are supposed to wear a mask. I still don’t know if masks work or not but making students wear them for hours and hours is ridiculous.“
The Ohio State University
Testimonial 1:
“Interim suspensions if they break any of the “rules“ including attending/participating in on campus or off campus gatherings of more than 10. Last weekend when we moved in our child, off-campus housing, helicopters were buzzing over the houses, there are people basically roaming around and spying on kids to bust them and we knew exactly what they were looking for. Large gatherings. It’s insane.
“Daily check-in‘s of health prior to being allowed off campus. If you think this generation has anxiety issues before, can you imagine what they have now? I get the common sense stuff but I really wondered what country we were living in with all of this excess surveillance.”
Testimonial 2:
“In June when housing deposits were due they said ‘in person classes, no masks outside’ no mention of tests. All positive and happy and there’d be football. My daughter … really wanted to go back to college as not being there … in the college environment, isolated at home was causing a lot of depression… so we let her go. 48 hours before the students move in week was to begin, OSU changed all the rules. It’s a dystopian hell.”
College in University of Texas system
“Everyday, I hear of some new restriction or rule that students are required to follow. Things have been even more significantly tightened even during this first week of school. Perhaps the most obvious instance is the Housing Department’s obsession with keeping students away from one another.
“Before the first week of school, Housing sent a decree stating that students were prohibited to have more than one guest in our apartments or dorm rooms at a time. This past Wednesday, three days after the beginning of the semester, a new email: we were now forbidden to have any guests whatsoever. Over the summer, new security cameras have been installed in the hallways of all buildings, aimed at residents’ doors.”
Johns Hopkins University
Testimonial 1:
“1. 6 weeks ago, hybrid. Everyone back but sophomores kicked out of dorms, must rent a house or off campus to make room for freshman in singles. Jrs/Srs usually live off campus.
2. 3 weeks ago reverse course. Campus CLOSED do not come back. Sorry you signed a binding legal lease.
3. Many kids in apt/houses are going back (they ARE paying rent after all), to remote learn.
4. Couple off campus kids test +.
5. Hopkins sends threatening letter…no matter where you are, if you break Hopkins rules with masks, social distancing and being with more than 10 people, you can be expelled.
6. They urge people to rat on each other, and kids start FB page just for ratting.”
Testimonial 2:
“Just dropped my son (who is an athlete) off at Johns Hopkins. They shut down. Cowards. He lives off campus. His friends at Ohio St team may quit because it’s PRISON! Other places as well. Stay in your room, meals delivered to your dorm only allowed out 3 times. Insanity.”
St Lawrence University
“1 positive case out of 2k tests. Kids limited to ‘family groups’ and no more than four in dorm room. Masks when outside dorm and wrist band indicates you can go outdoors. Very limited social interaction.”
Louisiana State University (LSU)
“Our son spent his first nights at college alone. No welcome dorm pizza party. No meeting the kids on his floor. He walked campus alone. You can’t eat in the cafeteria so take out food back to your room. Masks required everywhere, in Baton Rouge in August. Outside.
“I don’t know how the kids aren’t fainting. All classes online. One class is a ‘learn on your own’ and take a test. No instruction. He did manage to do virtual rush and joined a fraternity. He said it was the only way to meet anyone. His roommate did not rush and sleeps all day. The school wants them to report symptoms daily on an app.
“They have testing pods all over campus and want all the kids to get tested. If you do test positive they force you into a hotel – alone for 14 days. Not allowed out of the room save for one hour a day with a mask on. They turn off their room cards so they can’t escape back to their dorms.
“We get emails weekly advising us to support our kids getting a test and ;behaving; so they don’t have to close the campus. It’s sick. What are we doing? Why? If LSU does close and send the kids home we won’t go back.
“Why pay out of state tuition for Zoom? Why are we depriving our kids of their college experiences? I’m just sick about this every day. I hope someone can break thru the COVID fog and be brave. Our kids deserve it.”
Western Carolina University
“Mandatory masking inside and OUTSIDE. Cafeterias are closed with take out food and long line. Families had until Aug 1 to decide whether to send kids and accept a no refund policy if kids were sent home.
“This meant you were on the hook for all loans and payments even if services were no longer provided. Of course at that time, classes reported as hybrid. Two weeks in, most classes have now switched to online only.”
Miami University of Ohio
“Ordered via an email to quarantine immediately so they could contact trace athletes … Ordered into an abandoned dorm immediately that wasn’t intended to be occupied this year. No supervision or help with moving. No elevators. Not cleaned. Communal bathrooms which makes no sense.
“Didn’t matter if u hadn’t been to parties or around anyone who tested positive. Threatened with class 2 misdemeanor by the sheriff and code of conduct violation aka loss of scholarship if u went home.
“Most are now finally released. Campus is now testing 3000 students a week once the general student pop returns on 9/17. At any time you can be forced back into quarantine for 14 days due to contract tracing. The students are now not wanting to be around anyone else.
“They are told to ‘to treat every person as If they are sick’ so they don’t get caught in a contact tracing web so they essentially are being told to not interact with others but were forced to live in double occupancy which now makes them judge everything the roommate does because if your roommate is contact traced you are forced back into jail.”
Virginia Tech
“Only 15 people allowed to gather. Masks required outside their room anywhere..inside or out. All classes are online. Only 1 person can visit room and masks must be worn. Immediate suspension if caught violating. This is inhumane. It’s prison.”
Syracuse University
“My son goes to Syracuse – entirely dorm room bound and all classes online. As he was coming from out of state he and all other out-of-staters had to arrive two weeks early and they were dorm bound and had food delivered to the rooms. He received this hysterical message sent to the students on August 20th:”
Creighton University
“11 days to get the required COVID test back. Isolated the whole time. No in person eating at the dorms as a norm. Training in the heat with masks for hours. Masks 24/7 on campus inside and out. Social isolation. 2 classes a week in person, everything else virtual.
“Can’t come home until end of fall semester as you can’t travel more than 100 miles from Omaha. Aren’t allowed to go anywhere or do anything except local restaurant pick ups and run to the store. If you are mildly exposed to a person with COVID, 14 day mandatory quarantine.”
College of Charleston
Anon 1: “They are forcing them to all get tested, they can’t have anyone at all in their dorms, all common areas are closed except laundry. A lot of places to eat are still closed. Charleston has a mask mandate. They’ve got these kids, especially first year students terrorized.”
Anon 2: “Mandatory masks and distancing or face suspension on 1st offense. Dorm policy even more draconian.”
College in University of Texas system
My son is a Freshman. All his classes are online. He chose to live on campus in order to experience a semblance of college life. In his giant dormitory, his room is only one with three guys.
They have knocked on doors in their hall trying to meet people, and have been chastised and hassled by the RAs for being ‘radicals’ for simply reaching out to others.
The chow hall staff does not allow these roommates to sit together at the same table. Tables are a radius six feet apart. Every interaction is actively discouraged.
The general school population has adhered to the solitary confinement model. [Students] keep their heads down, masks on, and avoid even saying ‘hello’ walking around campus. My son has said their fear is palpable.”
Colgate University
“They have a very restrictive plan which we respect for managing COVID… but there’s nothing to manage the student’s personal experience. Even with negative tests… very restrictive. All classes are online.
“He can’t even socialize with the other students in the dorm. 1 hour outside once in a while … this was his time to mature, and become more independent. It’s been the equivalent of House Arrest with a stranger which would have been tolerable if things were allowed to open up. He can’t even go outside to speak on the phone in private.”
Rice University
“Weekly COVID tests. Can’t eat in the dining halls but are given meals in take out containers to be eaten in the dorm room. In person classes can’t be more than 25 and of course, masks required inside at all times except in your own room.
“Wearing mask when walking to class in the oppressive humidity. [Athletes] have to workout wearing masks! The coaches and trainers have to wear masks and face shield plus gloves. Players can’t use the locker rooms or team rooms this season! This is all crazy and sad!”
Boston College
“This is a horrible way to go to college. [Daughter] was in tears last night about the prospect of the mandatory immediate quarantine while waiting for the test, as she has heard from others that it was taking 27+ hours to get the tests back on the slow days. She is worried that she might be an asymptomatic case.
“A lot of people are giving these kids grief for complying with mask orders, but I can tell you that these kids are just desperate for a return to normalcy. They had everything taken away from them for 6 months, and are so afraid that it will happen again.
“As far as why parents would send their kids back, my daughter has a really good scholarship – [most] of her tuition is paid. We can’t risk losing it because we don’t have the means to pay for college without good financial aid. What we are doing to this generation of kids is awful … common sense has been missing from this debate for months.”
Lehigh University
“In late July they announced the move to remote classes. This basically kicked them all off campus and caused a scramble for kids to secure off campus rental housing since the kids want to be at school. The university has all these COVID rules that they apply to these kids OFF Campus.

“The housing staff, in particular the student staff, are really out for blood … the student staff wants people suspended for any and every infraction. Weve pumped so much fear down people’s throats for 6 months that I believe we are well past grace and patience.”
Wesleyan University
My child’s university is testing them twice per week & they must quarantine for two full weeks upon arrival, even if they test negative! They are not allowed visitors on campus & no one is allowed to leave, the entire semester!
An asymptomatic positive test will result in isolation at a Hotel the university rented! What a scam! These are all human rights violations!
No contact with friends, family or even known physicians for what, so the university can profit & the students will ‘learn’ to comply & become reliant/dependent. Kitchens are closed so they can’t even cook! No one was allowed to help them move in either!
Single girls were literally trying to lug refrigerators across campus & up flights of stairs. No help was provided or allowed! As you probably know, many dorms do not have air conditioning.”
University of Wyoming
I can attest the stories coming out of universities really are as bad as people claim. They are online with classes until the end of September when kids will attend massively socially distanced/ hybrid classes.
After the thanksgiving break, students then will leave campus and have finals online. We are being sent COVID saliva tests and any positives are treated like the plague even though there’s not a single case on campus.
My university isn’t as bad as the others mentioned but I have a feeling when they get back to campus things will be worse. Im taking this as a gap year because I refused to comply with the draconian mask orders. It was bad enough I had to pay for three months rent after vacating school last month.”
University in PAC-12 Conference
My daughter had three COVID tests (they lost one) and an antibody test that she actually tested positive for. She had COVID in March. They told her that because she tested positive for the antibodies they were going to treat it as COVID and have her isolate until they could do a heart screening.

humansarefree--2020-09-02--Canadian University Offers Course Normalizing ‘Safe’ and ‘Common’ Abortion

( LifeSiteNews ) – Dalhousie University in Canada is now offering a course to its health students promoting abortion as “ normal.
” “ Despite abortion having been decriminalized in Canada since 1988 , the remaining barriers to access are of course geography … but also the willingness of providers to step up and provide this care [ sic ] , ” said Marthy Paynter , who leads the course .
“ If we ’ re going to address that barrier we have to train the providers , and when you realize how normal something is , how safe , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it into your practice and feel comfortable with this care provision , ” she told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation ( CBC ) .
Paynter , CBC reported , “ was involved in introducing training for nursing students on abortion that was part of a larger undergraduate course a couple years ago.
” “ This is a great expansion of that attention that Dalhousie Health has made to the importance of educating our future health-care practitioners about abortion care [ sic ] , ” Paynter claimed .
Paynter also suggested to the CBC that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to commit an abortion , those doctors most nonetheless facilitate it by referring the mother to another doctor : “ Paynter said it ’ s also a requirement in health-care providers ’ code of ethics and standards of practice to never abandon their patients .
If they can ’ t offer abortion care [ sic ] , they make a referral to someone who can , she said.
” The course , “ Interprofessional Care of Surgical and Medical Abortion Patients , ” is officially characterized as a mini-course , consisting of only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course will help provide students with information on the history of abortion in Canada and current access to abortion , ” the course description states .
“ The course will focus on recent changes in Atlantic Canada including the removal of the Therapeutic Abortion Committee in NB in 2014 ; the creation of the abortion clinic in PEI in 2017 ; and the removal of referral requirement and introduction of centralized intake in NS in 2018.
” Additionally , course participants would be on track to understanding “ medical abortion was approved by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ available in 2017 , and nurse practitioners now prescribe medical abortion in every province and territory in Canada.
” Dalhousie University wants students to have “ reflected upon their beliefs , values and assumptions relative to contraception , reproductive autonomy and abortion , and learned the relevance of this reflection on their professional role of support with people who have experienced unplanned pregnancy and reproductive coercion.
” They are also asked to understand better “ the personal , cultural and institutional contexts of reproductive control and their effects on people seeking care from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have improved “ consciousness regarding politicized action that can be taken to counter the personal , cultural and institutional contexts of reproductive control.

(LifeSiteNews) – Dalhousie University in Canada is now offering a course to its health students promoting abortion as “normal.”
“Despite abortion having been decriminalized in Canada since 1988, the remaining barriers to access are of course geography … but also the willingness of providers to step up and provide this care [sic],” said Marthy Paynter, who leads the course.
“If we’re going to address that barrier we have to train the providers, and when you realize how normal something is, how safe, how common, that helps you adopt it into your practice and feel comfortable with this care provision,” she told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).
Paynter, CBC reported, “was involved in introducing training for nursing students on abortion that was part of a larger undergraduate course a couple years ago.”
“This is a great expansion of that attention that Dalhousie Health has made to the importance of educating our future health-care practitioners about abortion care [sic],” Paynter claimed.
Paynter also suggested to the CBC that students will be told if doctors refuse to commit an abortion, those doctors most nonetheless facilitate it by referring the mother to another doctor:
“Paynter said it’s also a requirement in health-care providers’ code of ethics and standards of practice to never abandon their patients. If they can’t offer abortion care [sic], they make a referral to someone who can, she said.”
The course, “Interprofessional Care of Surgical and Medical Abortion Patients,” is officially characterized as a mini-course, consisting of only four 90-minute sessions.
“This mini course will help provide students with information on the history of abortion in Canada and current access to abortion,” the course description states.
“The course will focus on recent changes in Atlantic Canada including the removal of the Therapeutic Abortion Committee in NB in 2014; the creation of the abortion clinic in PEI in 2017; and the removal of referral requirement and introduction of centralized intake in NS in 2018.”
Additionally, course participants would be on track to understanding “medical abortion was approved by Health Canada in 2015, became widely available in 2017, and nurse practitioners now prescribe medical abortion in every province and territory in Canada.”
“Medical abortion” refers to the abortion pill.
Abortionist Testifies: ‘No Question’ Babies Being Born Alive To Harvest Organs
Dalhousie University wants students to have “reflected upon their beliefs, values and assumptions relative to contraception, reproductive autonomy and abortion, and learned the relevance of this reflection on their professional role of support with people who have experienced unplanned pregnancy and reproductive coercion.”
They are also asked to understand better “the personal, cultural and institutional contexts of reproductive control and their effects on people seeking care from health care professionals,” and to have improved “consciousness regarding politicized action that can be taken to counter the personal, cultural and institutional contexts of reproductive control.”
The course does not appear to take into account ethical considerations, namely that a baby is killed during every single successful abortion.
According to Campaign Life Coalition, “At least 100,000 surgical abortions are committed annually in Canada, conservatively speaking.” Overall, more than 4 million babies have died since abortion was first legalized in 1969.
Basing itself on findings of a study by the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) points out that “abortion is used as a ‘back-up’ birth control method in more than 96% of instances.”
Canada’s abortion regime is one of the most radical in the world.
“In R. v. Morgentaler, 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada made its landmark decision to throw out the 1969 abortion law on the basis that it was ‘unconstitutional’. This created a legal vacuum in which, to this day, no abortion law exists in Canada,” CLC writes.
Now, abortions are permitted “throughout all 9 months of pregnancy, for any reason, up to the moment of birth. Section 223 of the Criminal Code of Canada defines a human being as ‘a child that has completely proceeded from the body of its mother.’”

Pelosi is the same person who, while businesses were shut down and waiting for government relief, gave Americans a tour of her luxury freezer that was stocked with gourmet ice cream. It was her “let them eat ice cream” moment.
Now, she’s caught visiting a salon and not wearing a face mask. Where’s the outrage?
Nancy Pelosi is 80 years old and she clearly isn’t afraid of the Woo-woo virus. Why?
