Police Arrested Twelve Year Old Boy for Refusing Vaccine at School: "A child of twelve was charged with 'threatening behaviour' at his school in Bowmanville, East of Toronto last week. The arrest happened when the boy (who cannot be named for legal reasons) threw a tantrum refusing the Hepatitis B vaccine. The National Post reported that police were brought into Ross Tilley Public School because the boy had threatened to damage the school. Unfortunately, the report failed to give the reason why the child was refusing the vaccine or what made him so angry.
The National Post said:
'Officers consulted with the Crown attorney's office and charged the boy with threatening, a criminal charge police said was justified: 'due to the age of the child and concerns over public safety.'
This may or may not be true; however, at no time did there appear to be any concern for this child's welfare. There may have been many reasons why the twelve year old did not want to be vaccinated. These range from being afraid of the needle to being worried about the possible side effects. It could be that Hepatitis B is in fact a disease that is mainly transmitted through sexual intercourse or sharing dirty drug needles!"
