Wow. Just wow.

[wandsandwine]

Wtf is wrong with people? Why would you voluntarily do that to your child?

[mrsnorris]

So, let me get this straight. Letting my six and nine year olds play at the park means I get arrested and CPS takes my kids. Going out of my way to have them catch a deadly virus is acceptable. Yes?

What the FUCK? I have no words, none, I don't even know where to start.

I will be vaccinating my child against chicken pox because I remember how shitty it was - no way in hell would I volunteer to give my kid the measles. What happens when a child dies from this?

I hope to God the parents can be charged with some type of willful neglect/manslaughter/etc. Assholes.

Also what's next -group trips somewhere polio is rampant? Nothing like a good case of polio to build the immune system, it doesn't cause crippling disfigurements or anything. Or whooping cough parties - 'cause that's a blast. Maybe they should all play in contaminated sewage and see if they can all get typhoid. Too bad tetanus requires a vaccine to gain immunity or rusty nail parties could be the next big thing in Cali.

This, this makes me stabby (and apparently I do have words)

You know, I'm not one for willy-nilly lawsuits, but I'm starting to think the threat of a wrongful death lawsuit is going to be the only thing that gets through to these people.

I just don't get it. Seriously. I'm about to unfriend this girl on facebook because she is a big anty-vaxer. Drives me up the wall.

[harleyquinn]

The stupid is strong with these people.

[redhorizon343]

I don't understand. I thought part of the anti-vax movement was about keeping "toxins" out of your body, or about how you can "shed" the virus for a few weeks after your receive it. Is this not just taking the needle out of the equation and guaranteeing that your child suffer instead of taking the minuscule risk that they do?

[roccobabyk]

People are so unbelievably stupid I can't even handle it.

[annapunkalunka]

The whole vaccine debate makes me angry. I'm usually the "everyone's entitled to their opinion" type. But I struggle to think that when it comes to stuff like this. Don't be an idiot. Vaccinate your kids.

Does anyone wonder if we have a few anti vax people lurking on here? Come out, come out wherever you are!

Come out so we can collectively rip your heads off for sport! They'd have to be trolls or really crappy lurkers to admit to it, but it sure would liven things up!

I just can't...people...sigh...poor kids.

[gingy]

Why can't Isis target these people?
