Among the most important doumentaries to queue up on the Smart TV this weekend...

Whether you want to get in the head of the dreaded "anti-vaxers" to know how to help "fix" their thinking... or if you'd like to settle any doubts concerning the controlled media push to smear and blame the "anti-vaxers" for the current administration's importation of 3rd world diseases to rally support for the unthinkable tyranny of a ridiculous schedule of FORCED vaccination... This is the ONE documentary you might like to watch if you plan to know enough to speak intelligently, make informed choices, and act to preserve (or fight if you believe necessary) parental and individual medical rights

Examining the other side of the debate

Warning: Spoilers
The documentary "Vaxxed: From Cover-up To Catastrophe" has been highly praised to no end, especially within the alternative media, and rightly so. (It's a 10 out of 10 film, after all. Who can argue with that?) Here's one that's just as good, if not better, yet one that's received very little attention over the years.

At almost two hours in length, SILENT EPIDEMIC is information-dense and requires a patient audience. Following about a 7 minute-long montage-intro, the film settles down into an in-depth and comprehensive analysis of its subject.

Personally, I watched this twice in the span of a few days, being there's so much it unpacks I felt it demanded a second viewing so as to fully grasp the material.

You could almost file this one under Horror only, sadly, this is all too real an alarming phenomenon.

In response to those who would describe this documentary as 'biased' or 'one-sided,' suffice it to say: Yes -- that it is. And why shouldn't it be, considering that within the controlled mainstream media vaccine-induced injuries and deaths go pretty much unreported. It's about time we hear from the 'prosecution' in this case so to speak, and what with invaluable films such as these so few and far between, however one-sided they are is nothing compared to MSM coverage.

If you're like me (mid-forties) and have observed that the younger generation generally seems not altogether 'with it,' the possibility that this may be linked to all the shots they're given from childbirth onward into adolescence ought to at least be considered.

Then again, perhaps no one knows better whether vaccines cause, say, autism for example, than the despairing parents of those who have witnessed convincing correlations for themselves, in the case of their own children. Included are several clips of teary-eyed mothers relating their tragic stories, in some cases offering before-and-after home-video footage of their children as evidence. Kids who were once lively and lucid are shown being uncharacteristically inactive and emotionally distant, as if overnight, upon receiving their vaccine.

To anyone reading this and considering watching it, if you have even an ounce of human compassion in your heart and a willingness to serve as akin to a neutral juror before reaching a verdict, all I can say is watch this and hopefully you will find this film as important as I did, enough to also recommend it to friends and family.

Luckily for us, mister control-freak-posing-as-philanthropist, Bill Gates, is nowhere to be seen here. What a software salesman is doing in the highly profitable business of vaccine manufacturing anyway is a question worth pondering, but one this film overlooks. Although not an egomaniacal technocrat, the equally menacing Paul Offit turns in an appearance to inadvertently provide some much-needed comic relief. Really, I don't know which of these two guys makes me cringe the most, but even just one of them in a film on vaccines is quite more than enough.

A politician by the name of Dan Burton is here shown, as one with an actual mind of his own, and a refreshingly critical one at that, putting to one or two spokespersons within the pharmaceutical industry some tough questions. Man, if only there were more representatives like him!

A few medical doctors also recount their own experiences, as well as a few independent scientists are heard from, providing insights despite their laboratory jargon.

All in all, SILENT EPIDEMIC has something for everyone who comes to vaccines from a skeptical vantage point. Here we are reminded that vaccines are often approved by compromised parties -- those with vested interests -- and that clinical studies are for the most part industry-funded. The CDC, the FDA, Dr. Maurice Hillerman (inventor of the MMR vaccine) are either discussed or at least mentioned. We also hear from one or two interviewees who take to debunking the myth that vaccines of old were the primary factor in reducing the spread of infectious diseases; this, a favorite argument commonly used by those within this near-religious laity.
