You can find testimony online from scientists and doctors (probably being paid off) stating categorically that you shouldn't get your kids vaccinated. How does the government legislate which scientists and doctors we legally have to listen to and which ones we legally have to ignore? BTW I feel i should state that obviously I think vaccines are good and do only what they are supposed to do. A part of this research is in peer-reviewed publications, widely accepted as the correct way to do science. The other is in sponsored publications. Who should you trust ? Easy if you're not an idiot. And for idiots, there is the law. The US is a special place for everything related to medication and regulations it seems, especially under this government. | ||

I just wasn't, I got a bunch of diseases, and I can't care. You don't care that you got a bunch of diseases? Wow. | ||

You should, because you not being vaccinated (If you haven't already have had all the diseases you can get) can kill your future son or daughter (or someone elses) before they are vaccinated themselves. We rely on herd immunity, and you're a weak spot that can let diseases in. Getting vaccinated as an adult isn't wrong either. | ||

Not gonna have kids before we fix climate change/capitalism... so, not gonna have kids I'd wager | ||

I've said before that Trump being elected has moved us closer to either the Idocracy or the Mad Max universe. For a while there with all the NK shit I was leaning towards Mad Max. More recently I'm in the Idocracy boat. President Camacho's SOTU has less lies than the one Trump will give next week. Count on it. | ||

Recently I realized something - if you read books a lot, you might discover something harmful. Is this a quote? If so I don't get it. If not then..wtf? | ||

That being said, given the source of the post and the PBU who posted it we might need to make sure it is legit. Given it's about Bolton it probably is. I didn't even look at the name before I watched the video  I hope I was not scammed | ||
