Government tested on the poor in St. Louis & abroad

From the government's own documents - school selected for poisoning.
Notice the  word "secret" blacked out in this FOIA released document.

There are always people unwilling to believe that their own government would ever do them wrong. I understand how hard it is to accept that the government you elect, including people from your own district that you may know and support, are involved in causing you harm.

However, history is clear on this, governments do, will and are using the public for whatever purpose they wish. This includes medical testing on an unknowing and unwilling public.

Let's talk about what happened in the 50's and 60's in St.Louis, Missouri. More specifically, what happened in some poor areas of this city and apparently, other cities across the nation.

This information was not handed to the public in some act of contrition by a saddened and apologetic government. It was wrenched from them through painstaking efforts, an onslaught of Freedom of Information Act requests and much hard work by Lisa Martino-Taylor.

Mrs. Martino-Taylor was working on a thesis after a neighbor visited her and told her that she had survived a brain tumor and had always believed it was caused by something sprayed in her neighborhood as a child. She grew up in a poor area of St. Louis and soon this researcher was digging for real information on what exactly happened in St.Louis and why.This story, along with a similar story from a colleague,opened the book on this shameful U.S. Military secret.

The government used motorized blowers on top of buildings, including high-rises and schools. They also drove around with these blowers on station wagons. The low income, predominately black areas of St. Louis were the targets, and areas were allegedly selected to have similarities to Soviet cities.

The substance being sprayed on unwilling people was radioactive zinc cadmium sulfide in the form of a fine fluorescent powder. You can read the tales of people's families succumbing to cancer at alarming rates, not to mention the ones that survived thanks to radical medical intervention. What you have here is the government intentionally and secretively experimenting on the poor, plain and simple.

From FOIA released documents -workers setting up roof top sprayers.

This is just one instance that came to the light of day, how many more such experiments are out there waiting to be exposed? How many people have been hurt or killed due to secret testing by the US. government?

 If you were a believer in a benevolent government up to today, I hope you rethink your stance. If you're on the fence, I hope you're now fully awake and understand that our government is fully willing to use us in any way they see fit, without our knowledge or consent.

Do you think you're ill due to the actions of the government? Tell us about it - we're interested in compiling stories and drawing some conclusions.
