(Apr. 23, 2023) — March 23, 2023, Barbara Loe Fisher, cofounder and president of the charitable National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) and NVIC co-founder Kathi Williams and I unveiled a public Truth and Freedom monument outside the Mercola office in Cape Coral, Florida.
It’s a majestic bronze and marble monument dedicated to the many casualties of one-size-fits-all mandatory vaccination laws. It also celebrates civil liberties and human rights, the first of which is the right to autonomy and protection of bodily integrity.
“If you don’t have that right, if you cannot exercise that right, you can’t exercise an informed consent to medical risk-taking, which includes vaccine risk-taking,” Fisher says.
As she points out, there are lots of monuments in Washington, D.C., dedicated to prominent figures and wars. But there are no monuments to those who lost their lives because of mandatory vaccination policies and laws that include sanctions for noncompliance. For casualties of one-size-fits all vaccine policies, the risks of vaccination have turned out to be 100%, and we’ve certainly seen that during the last three years. Fisher has been warning that the mandatory vaccination system is flawed since 1982. Since then, it’s only gotten more corrupt, not less, as government vaccination programs are inexorably tied to the business interests of the pharmaceutical industry.
A Guardian of Freedom
In 2019, the World Health Organization declared that “vaccine hesitancy” is one of the top 10 threats to global public health, and media went into a feeding frenzy, going after anyone who asked questions about vaccine safety, or questioned the sanity of giving children 72 doses of 17 vaccines.
“I knew we needed to create a tangible physical monument that would symbolize freedom, autonomy, the right to protect bodily integrity — and also acknowledge and honor those who are casualties of these vaccination policies,” Fisher says. “I knew it was something that needed to be done. So, I started planning it.
I first envisioned it as a white marble monument with inscriptions. I always knew I wanted a guardian angel to be part of it. But when I went down to Bonita Springs, to Fine’s Gallery, and looked at all of the statues, I decided that the angel, the guardian angel of freedom should be made out of bronze because bronze is a strong, strong material.
My daughter is an illustrator, so I described what I wanted and she drew this angel. The angel is silvered bronze, standing 7 feet high with a wing spread of nearly 5 feet, and holding up in one arm, the torch, which symbolizes the light of truth, and in the other arm, a baby, which symbolizes the future of humanity.
The angel, of course, reminds us of our duty to protect our children, who are our future. I then created, behind the angel, three arches of marble, and on the center arch is the inscription from the Bible, ‘The truth will set you free,’ and on either side are quotes.
On the one side: ‘Your body was designed to stay well. You hold in your hands the power to take control of your health. Never let anyone take your right to health away.’ ~ Dr. Mercola
On the other is something that I’ve been saying for many years: ‘If the state can tag, track down and force individuals to be injected with biologicals of known and unknown toxicity today, then there will be no limit on which individual freedoms the state can take away in the name of the greater good tomorrow.’ ~ Barbara Loe Fisher
That is a warning that if we do not take a stand right now for autonomy and protection of bodily integrity, we might as well resign ourselves to be slaves in an authoritarian state, because we all know that’s where it’s going.
I’m so proud that it stands on this beautiful land that you [Dr. Mercola] donated in front of the Mercola Market, with palm trees and green grass and flowers and water reservoirs. It’s a beautiful, beautiful setting. And I feel very sure that that guardian angel of freedom will be standing there for a long time.”
