Shocking letters show how a federal election candidate had her career threatened over her support for vaccine choice. Respected doctors on tour publicly ridiculed as 'quacks'
I suspect the damage was done in the years after 9/11 when raft after raft of legislation destroying hard-won civil liberties was passed. It damaged the culture and the law IMHO. I have updated it to add that Dr Dumer has now joined a rival professional association called AMPS which says its free of party politics. So people are making alternatives.
"Abusive phone calls were made to her surgery by unknown members of the public shortly after the newspaper article appeared, she said."
This happened to me when I was involved in peaceful pro-choice political activities and the abuse included death threats. Always from blocked numbers and the abuse stopped when our political activities failed. I know who they were from but for legal reasons cannot name them. I am in Western Australia. Anyone can do the math and come to the answer.
"I'm trying to follow the science, but it keeps leading me to the money!"
But also, this is a spiritual battle. That's one of the reasons why I publish anonymously. People are rather unhinged. Western Australia: big state, small town!
