ST. PAUL, MN A group of Republican lawmakers introduced a bill in the Minnesota House of Representatives that would classify mRNA vaccines and products as "weapons of mass destruction" and criminalize their manufacture, distribution, and possession.
"It's a shot across the bow of the biotechnology industry, which has taken advantage of its unique liability protections and the fear generated by emergency to fast-track novel gene-altering treatments which are not fully understood," Rep. Walter Hudson (Albertville), one of the bill's authors, told Patch.
"These treatments were coerced under threat of lost employment and social censure, rather than offered under the longstanding ethical norm of informed consent.". Hudson said the bill "would need significant amendment to become law" but described its "bold opening position" as an effort to "provoke productive conversation about these issues" and ultimately "arrive at a reasonable legislative response."
The bill, HF 4991, would prohibit the manufacturing, distribution, and possession of "any product that uses or contains messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology" in Minnesota.
In addition to Hudson, the bill was introduced by Republican Reps. Shane Mekeland (Clear Lake), Krista Knudsen (Lake Shore), Jeff Dotseth (Silver Township), Tom Murphy (Underwood), Pam Altendorf (Red Wing), Elliott Engen (White Bear Township), and Isaac Schultz (Elmdale Township).

(74,261 posts)The C-19 COVID virus does not have DNA but it has mRNA and so a vaccine made to fight the
C-19 virus has to have a segment of the mRNA from the C-19 virus in it so it can program our
bodys immune system to recognize the unwanted virus by spotting it along with the spike protein.

It's really pathetic how attached the cultist remain to the long-ago debunked bullshit stories created in their own echo-chamber, that they attached themselves to in the past. What's next, dipshits? You going to pass a law that says China will pay Trump's tariffs instead of Minnesotans? Maybe one that makes it illegal for elementary schools to have cat litter boxes in classrooms, or perform gender reassignment surgeries in the school nurses office without notifying parents?
The GQP are idiots, from top to bottom.

The Democrats have a 1 vote majority in the state Senate & the state House is tied. Even if it passed there wouldn't be the votes to overridde Walz' veto.

(75 posts)This is just the Michelle Bachman branch of the family tree trying to stir up the moribund MAGAs and create some noise as the state budget is debated. This is why intelligent Minnesotans moved to Minneapolis. They couldnt stand the stupidity of Greater Minnesota. This bill will be defeated, but with the new requirements the Worm Brain put in place, we may have to go to Canada/Mexico/Europe to be immunized.
