My former husband had a saying:
"Just because ten-thousand flies eat sh*t doesn't mean you should."
I was reminded of this recently when someone mentioned that other states (besides Michigan) were passing small cell antenna infrastructure legislation.
Just because other states have passed similar forms of cookie-cutter legislation that benefits telecommunications companies at the expense of the citizens of the state, doesn't mean we should.
But "we" did.
And by "expense" I mean not only monetarily, but we also pay with our health because wireless technology has repeatedly been proven harmful to humans and the environment.
The law reads:
SAY WHAT?!?
The people of Michigan, for the most part, didn't even KNOW about SB 637 and 894 thanks to our public media that apparently didn't think a law that strips the citizens of their rights to health, safety, and welfare was newsworthy enough for headlines. Or that stripping local authorities of revenue and control of public right of way space was newsworthy enough either.
However, it was included at the bottom of an article about a rapist and child custody case. Not exactly where most people would look for an announcement of groundbreaking legislation with extensive ramifications.
The people of Michigan did not enact these small cell antenna laws. The 2018 Michigan House of Representatives, Senators and Governor enacted them, and thereby gave telecom companies the right to install their equipment just about anywhere in public right of ways without our knowledge or consent.
AND with NO safety testing.
"This is about radiation, and people need to understand that..."
"Scientists state that wireless radiation is a human carcinogen. Governments have no proof of safety and the peer reviewed published literature has substantial evidence of harm."
So just because other states also passed similar legislation, and just because other states are not looking at a repeal to these horrible laws, doesn't mean we shouldn't.
To protect the health, safety, and welfare of the people of Michigan, we must repeal these laws and place a moratorium on further installations of small cell antennas until safe levels of pulsed modulated non-ionizing wireless radiation have been established for long-term exposure at non-thermal levels by qualified experts with absolutely NO conflicts of interest.
Which means NOT the FCC (Federal Communications Commission).
