I checked out their homepage and it seems that there’s just the one drone shot now. But [right here is their bullshit very strongly implying that vaccines cause ADD, other learning disorders, asthma, diabetes, and, of course, autism](https://centneracademy.com/medical-freedom-from-mandated-vaccines).

Well, the damn thing finally loaded and, yep, it’s something that would’ve induced motion-sickness in John Paul Jones.

Ah, the Organisation I meant was OSHA - which is the US health and safety enforcement agency.

The point is that the explicit policy of dismissing someone for taking nationally identified steps to protect themselves and others is not only stupid, it is almost certainly criminal since it endangers the attendees of the school and all those who may be in contact with those employees.

No, no, no, you got that wrong: the enema is fluorescent, it emits UV _inside_ your body. That is what does the virus in. That, and the bleach they put on the drip. And you sure can’t be fired for that!

If you read up a bit about the couple who founded the school they are entrepreneurs above all else. I think with some districts not permitting children to come to school unless they are vaccinated, they probably spotted an opening in the market for a school or schools that specialised in taking unvaccinated children. Their website even has a section on how to choose removalists to move to South Florida to be near to the school. They are pretty clearly going after the anti-vax market as a business ploy.

Whether this fits in with their actual beliefs or is purely a business move I don’t know. They are quite the couple - this image probably tells you much:

I’m not an expert by any means, but aren’t stripper poles usually silver and narrower?

That’s a protective/decorative velour cover.

Even odder, many of his loyal idiots are refusing to get vaccinated. He can tell them to do anything except protect their own health.

[Here’s what they say about the COVID vax:](https://centneracademy.myschoolapp.com/podium/push/default.aspx?i=202949&s=1710&snd=96ae4246-5140-46aa-8bc2-c5a6e606044a)

> We are not 100% sure the COVID-19 injections are safe and there are too many unknown variables for us to feel comfortable at this current time. For example, tens of thousands of women all over the world have recently been reporting adverse reproductive issues from being in close proximity with those who have received any one of the COVID-19 injections, e.g., irregular menses, bleeding, miscarriages, post menopausal hemorrhaging, and amenorrhea (complete loss of menstruation). No one knows exactly what may be causing these irregularities, but it appears that those who have received the injections may be transmitting something from their bodies to those with whom they come in contact. We think we can all agree this is a new risk that may impact reproductive systems, fertility, and normal growth and development in women and children. Until more is known, we must err on the side of caution when it comes to the welfare of our students and school team.

Do any anti-vaxxers believe any other vaccine transmits “something from their bodies to those with whom they come in contact”?

Maybe I read the law incorrectly but I believe vaccination records are protected under HIPAA with a few exceptions like school children, medical staff and public safety employees. And even then there are some protections. What this school is doing appears to be illegal.

Those are close to my dates, and I also haven’t had a period since. In my case, it may be because I’m a 60 year old male.

Those are close to my dates, and my periods stopped _before_ I was vaccinated. duh duh duh duuuuuuh.

Of course, they stopped like 15 years before.

You joke, but how do you know the people _around_ you – male, female, infant, non-binary, house pet – aren’t menstruating like there’s no tomorrow based _solely_ on _your_ misguided choice to take the vaccine ??

The couple’s taste in decor apparently runs to a lovely blend of 19th century French bordello with modern Trumpist gilded schlock, plus a touch of strip club. The general effect is that of a confusingly anachronistic whorehouse.

The tuition amounts, extra fees, and surcharges all seem to reflect the fact that gilded whorehouse furnishings ain’t cheap.

The internet can connect you with hundreds of shops who would be delighted to print a custom-made sticker for you. I’ve gotten good results from **[this one](https://www.carstickers.com/)**. If you really miss that particular sticker, design yourself a replica, send them a JPG, and wait by your mailbox.

Thanks! I never would have found that solution by myself. Just went there and tiptoed around, enjoyed myself thoroughly. Got some good gift ideas too. Thank you so much.
