On Apr. 1, 2021, European news outlets reported that police on horseback in Brussels, Belgium stampeded through a crowd of young people gathering in the urban park Bois de la Cambre on a warm spring day in violation of the government’s strict social distancing rules. An estimated 2,000 to 5,000 people showed up to attend an outdoor music festival called “La Boum” (the party) that turned out to be an April Fool’s prank. The police used water cannons, pepper spray, tear gas and a drone to disperse the crowd, with at least one person being trampled by a policeman on horseback and 22 arrests.1 2
According to the Brussels Times, some “came to protest against Belgium’s coronavirus police,” with one person saying “he does not believe in any scientific consensus on the coronavirus,” calling the measures “excessive” and commenting that “enough is enough.”3 Both the event organizers and police had warned on social media that it was a fake event but thousands of young people gathered in the park anyway, despite the government’s restrictions on public gatherings to just four people and a nighttime curfew.4
Belgian Court Orders Government to Lift “All Coronavirus Measures” Within 30 Days
The day before, on Mar. 31, 2021, a Brussels court ordered the government of Belgium to lift “all coronavirus measures” within 30 days. A judge ruled that the legal basis for the lockdown was insufficient and gave the State a month to provide a sound legal basis for the restrictions or be penalized 5,000 euros a day that the period is exceeded.5
The League for Human Rights had filed a lawsuit earlier in March challenging the Belgium government’s social distancing rules and other “Ministerial Decrees” that were implemented without any input from the parliament. The current coronavirus measures were enacted under the Civil Safety Act of 2007, which allows the government to react quickly in “exceptional circumstances.”
Until the government responds within the 30 day deadline, the current coronavirus restrictions will remain enforced by the police. Reportedly, the parliament is debating the passage of a new pandemic law that would grant permanent legal authority for the government to institute social distancing and other restrictions during a pandemic.

Apr 4, 2021 Pope Francis calls for vaccines for poor in Easter message
Pope Francis urged Catholics to remain hopeful in his Easter Sunday address, calling vaccines an “essential tool” in ending the pandemic and urging their swift rollout to the world’s poorest countries.

LOCKDOWNS, MASKS, AND OTHER MEASURES ARE SUPPORTED BY NEWS REPORTS AND OPINIONS. MEANWHILE 10,000 SCIENTISTS ARE BEING CENSORED BECAUSE THEY ARE EXPERTS IN THE FIELD AND THEIR RESEARCH FINDINGS DISAGREE WITH THE MINORITY NARRATIVE.
REAL SCIENCE WORKS THROUGH THE PUBLICATION AND CONSENSUS OF THOUSANDS OF SCIENTISTS WORLDWIDE. NO GOVERNMENTAL DECREE CAN BE DEFENDED BECAUSE NONE OF THIS HAS REAL SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT.
What’s supposed to happen to those of us who have been vaccine injured. How am I expected to take another vaccine. I was injured after the hepatitis vaccine. I’m currently on five different medications including a beta blocker.

STATES IN THE US WHO HAVE ABANDONED ALL RESTRICTIONS DO AS GOOD OR BETTER THAN STATES THAT DON’T. SUICIDE RATES ARE HIGHER THAN COVID DEATHS – WHY ISN’T THERE A WEBSITE FOR THAT?
The whole thing is a global psyop. They haven’t even isolated the “virus”, so how can they have a ‘vaccine’? It’s a massive SHAM. And the brainwashed sheep are following the “experts” off a cliff. They do NOT know what is in those shots and nobody can be sued if people drop dead from them. People do NOT KNOW HOW TO THINK RATIONALLY. They’re panicked thanks to 24/7 propaganda “news” coverage and want this to just be over with. They are not in their right minds. They are being taught to OBEY. Do no research on your own, just beLIE ve the lies. This is across the board, even so called ‘intelligent’ people are duped to the MAX on this.
I heard on powerofprophecy.com that if you look at the yearly overall death statistics for the past 3 years that they have been steady, no huge “spike” in deaths for the USA. This sort of points to the possibility that this whole covid panic is just that, a panic.
The Catholic church now says vaccines are holy and that Mary would have vaccinated Jesus. How can anyone in their right mind take any of this nonsense seriously?!?
I left the catholic church as soon as I was able. The Pope is a Dope. He thinks he’s God, but there’s too much freemasonry symbolism and evil in the Vatican. He wears a “Dagon” fish god hat. He’s got a giant obelisk from Egypt. Just read “Mysterious Monuments” by Texe Marrs and it tells the why’s behind the Vatican.
Gee, I thought Catholics were against abortion. Seeing as these shots use fetal cell lines from aborted babies, how can El Pope recommend them. Yes, this is a rhetorical question.
