It makes me sick like the Jehovah's Witnesses denying children fucking blood transfusions!
The JWs do more damage than fucking knocking on your door and being annoying cunts!
God I get sick of listening to this attitude. I used to have a similar attitude, but then I matured.
JW's are not the problem. They are healthcare consumers like everyone else, and you never blame the consumer for being "wrong".
There are two issues in your post - the first is people who deny their child a vaccination. This doesn't matter - it really doesn't. Individuals can choose not to vaccinate and it won't make a difference so long as you get 95% of children vaccinated. So stop wasting time and effort on the few people who are actually opposed (which isn't very many), and instead concentrate on the people who aren't actively opposed, but have missed vaccinations for a variety of reasons. I guarantee you that it's possible to exceed 95% vaccination rates without worrying about the people who are actually anti-vaccination.
Yes, it DOES matter. This sort of shit causes very real consequences. There have been measles outbreaks in the US in the last year. There is no excuse for this at all. It is not true that there aren't many anti-vaccination people. These assholes are putting people at very real, tangible risk of contracting PREVENTABLE diseases.
If The Flintstones have taught us anything, it's that pelicans can be used to mix cement.
