| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody and thank you for tuning into the Liberty Report with us today as Chris Rosini our co host Chris welcome to the program. |
| 0:08.0 | It's great to be with you again doctor Paul. |
| 0:10.0 | Very very good. |
| 0:12.0 | I want to talk today about a story as some people would think this is a monastery and we see a tragedy occurring at the same time the officials who want to control everything we do and everything we think. |
| 0:27.0 | They want to paint the individual we're going to talk about as the bad guy. |
| 0:32.0 | The person we're going to talk about is Andrew Weagan. |
| 0:35.0 | I have to confess I'm not up on all the athletics I love athletics and yeah I know now by just looking into this because he's been in the news is this guy is a great great basketball player. |
| 0:50.0 | As far as I'm concerned he's a great individual because he's been fighting with the authorities because they said you can't even play basketball as you get your vaccines. |
| 1:02.0 | And who knows I mean over the years he might have had some natural vaccine and he is objecting and Chris I think one of the best parts about his objection. |
| 1:12.0 | He says he says is is my body they don't own my body I should be able to do with what I want but never the last here in a few others have objective it's tremendous pressure they put on them because it means big big dollars not only for they for themselves but you know their families are involved and other players are involved and it's just a mess. |
| 1:38.0 | But the basic principle is is what we can sports out where does the government think they have this authority that they can punish a person like this is if you don't go and get all these vaccinations that you are not a lot of play. |
| 1:55.0 | And we don't care how much money you can make because all of a sudden this authoritarianism is the only thing they care about and they're pushing hard on this and sadly trying to make a decision on that but one thing for sure I don't think they're going to convert him to be an advocate for vaccines because he knows how great the encroachment on his personal liberty has been by putting pressure on him to you know get these shots. |
| 2:24.0 | And his objection also Chris has been justifiable you know what do they do does everybody know about it isn't this a test this hasn't been fully tested you know all the arguments that are out there about vaccine the other thing that I thought was pretty important because it's not like he's not studied this he says they don't even know what the effects will be long term they come up and tend to hide what happens the first week or two. |
| 2:54.0 | Or month or two or six months how many people can get sick and even those statistics are you know distorted because we don't know how many but he we guns brought the subject up we don't even know what the effect will be on raising a family in what it'll be like in two years five years or 10 years and he's right about that because we're dealing with a vaccine that is unique and it's our NA manipulation rather than DNA which is what they do. |
| 3:24.0 | They've done traditionally so Chris I just wanted to you know visit with you and just to talk about this case to show how the overreach all done in the name of goodness and guess who's at fault guess who's trolling the cause of all the trouble just like they say the anti-vaxxers the people who won't get a vaccine are causing all the illness in the world so because he's standing up against this he's the bad guy he's the bad guy for standing up for what he thinks he's going to do. |
| 3:54.0 | This is his personal liberty Chris right doctor Paul we were both moved when we read you know this he really is a victim because he did something that he did not want to do clearly and you can you can tell by his words he said quote I guess to do certain stuff to work and all that I guess you don't own your body that's what it comes down to you want to work in society today I guess they make the rules of what goes into your body and what you do. |
| 4:23.0 | And then as far as what you mentioned about nobody knowing the future of this and nobody does know he said quote I don't know what what it's going to do to my body there's a lot of stuff I feel like to go on for days about why I didn't want to get it most importantly I don't know what it's going to happen what it's going to do to my body in 10 15 20 years. |
| 4:46.0 | I mean the fact that we're living through this is astonishing because is it worth everybody has to decide is it worth it to roll the dice what a tough decision especially for someone in his position he worked his whole life he's an NBA star and all of a sudden he's putting this position that he has to basically throws dream away or take this shot that he does not want and we don't know the answer for anyone besides ourselves of what to do. |
| 5:15.5 | What we do know though is this the people pressuring you now if something happens they're not going to be there if there's a problem they'll be gone and you won't be able to find them anymore there are hands are going to be wiped of any role that they played in in pressuring you can count on them to be there now to to to hassle you but if something does happen they'll deny it you know had anything to do with the shot we're already saying that. |
| 5:44.5 | And they'll be gone so it will literally be on you and you will be after deal with the decision this is very very difficult especially for somebody in wiggins position. |
| 5:55.5 | You know and this is difficult for anybody who's resisting and of course we talk a lot about resisting you know all these mandates and there are so a lot more resistance now than before but it just seems like they can sort these things out when they do do this to an individual or a company or. |
| 6:13.5 | They punish you it's a threat is an intimidation is violent and they and they push that and that makes it very difficult especially when we have been a nation that believe in following the law and many people with the strong religious beliefs believe you follow the law and so they present these things for public health reason and what they do and you've already mentioned that they got to turn it around and make a week. |
