Well if everyone just keeps carrying on about the deaths, vaccines etc instead of asking who? when? where? why? and on who's authority? these little nasties are gestated and then let loose, and then make them accountable,Mod cut: TOS violationt while corporations, governments and their cohorts have their way with ya, until then they will just continue to think up more ways to exterminate populations in their dingy little laboratories...like the good little mad scientists they are.

There are more children and young people dying of swine flu than kidnappings. Is it reasonable to think the swine flu is much more of a danger and priority to report?

I feel so bad for the parents who are losing their children who are happy and healthy one day, and dead the next.

BTW, the L.A. Times states that the CDC reported "That brings the total to 114 children deaths since the pandemic's start, compared with 40 to 50 in a normal flu season."
"The U.S. Department of Justice reports

* 797,500 children (younger than 18) were reported missing in a one-year period of time studied resulting in an average of 2,185 children being reported missing each day."

Statistics

Yep.
And mainstream media has been bought and duped.
They are no longer doing their job ... they are owned.
That the public gets their info from them is, at this point, tragic and downright scary.
Newspapers are just about done ... gone!!!, mainstream media coming over the airwaves has been corrupted and reliable sources of hard won information provided by men and women of integrity who know what it is and what it takes to be a truly good reporter are very, very few and far between and most (the huge majority) folks aren't aware enough and/or motivated enough to seek them out.
Do you realize that without that kind of good, old fashioned journalism and reporting (without the hard truth) how vulnerable Americans are?
And do you know who benefits (and who will continue to benefit to greater degrees) by an ignorant and almost illiterate population (it's getting worse) who believe the garbage they're being fed and don't have sufficient powers of discernment and discrimination to even realize what's going on?
So outrage ... yeah O.P. ... be outraged but be outraged because you know the truth not 'cause you've been fueled by lies and distortions.

I agree. It may even be about more than just money....Take a look at what Finland's retired chief medical offer has to say on swine flu:

"Rauni-Leena Luukanen-Kilde (born 1939 in Värtsilä, now in the Republic of Karelia) was the provincial medical officer of the Finnish Lapland Province with a doctorate in medicine from 1975 until a car accident in 1986, which took away her ability to continue her work and career. Since then she has been best known for her UFO contacts and related thoughts. She likes to advertise her former title, but often she rather calls herself a former Chief Medical Officer of Finland and uses other questionable titles as well. Luukanen-Kilde has written UFO related books, which have been published inside and outside Finland. She has spoken openly about the hiding of the UFO evidence and other conspiracy theories. It is claimed she has taken part in numerous UFO conferences, but such a claim has been refuted in the past.[1] According to Kilde, the United States and other nations have been involved in covert "microchip mind control" research."

The saddest part of this Swne Flu ordeal to me is that.........I see the plant just up the road in PA.
They showed the trucks coming last month to receive the medication.....
But.....Then it is sent to Australia and other countries.......Our own hometowns near the plant have not
been given big amounts.
There is no lines set up.........no dates.........
The fact that it is right here.......The plants dumps into our rivers and streams........and we don't have it available. Quite stunning indeed.
Especially for the people it is known to help....The children, and people in compromised health.

The fact is that more children die from accidents in any given week that from the swine flu over a whole year. It is NOT the biggest killer of children or adults, so I see no reason to blow it up into something it isn't.

Is it bad? Yes, but it's just the flu and not the modern-day version of the Black Plague. In any normal year, roughly 30,000 people die from regular flu and swine flu has a long way to go reach that figure.
Well, pretty much what I was going to say but you beat me to it.

Exactly - deaths are sad period, but if anything they are make more of the H1N1 deaths - we never hear a word about typicaly seasonal flu related deaths that occur every year.
