    here is my take on Non-vaccers, you have a right not to get your kid vaccinated, but schools and other places have a right to deny your kid entry..

    Often babies are unvaccinated for a period of time before they get the vaccine, some children are unable to get vaccines due to cancer treatments and other factors. If everyone else around them was vaccinated it would lower the risk to those who are compromised due to uncontrollable circumstances

    Absolutely agree... But we know this doesn't happen. There's also a point to be made about the growing number of immigrants coming to America from Mexico, Russia, etc that don't vaccinate their children or can't afford it.

    Pretty sure that isn't running through every horndog teen and young adults head, sometimes one slips by the goalie during practice. Although I do agree kids should get vaccinated I don't think the government should have a hand in it.

    Perhaps when they get the check for "back taxes" they didn't pay before they had a SS# to get their kids some shots.

    Don't you work out of your house? My kids did not ride the bus, busses are filled with feral children.

    It has nothing to do with whether or not you have kids. The cartoon you posted is nonsense. I'll repeat, if YOUR KID has been vaccinated, it doesn't matter whether or not my kid gets measles, etc. Okay?

    And as far as I'm concerned, as a parent, you have an obligation to have your kids seen by a pediatrician on a regular basis even if you are poor. In our modern world there are programs that will cover medical care, especially for children, if you can't afford it. You just have to turn off the TV and get to it. (And you might have to put away the crack pipe for awhile.)

    I walked to school and our daughters will walk to school also. Middle school and high school, I rode the bus, and so will they. The middle school and high school are on the other side of town.

    I know some parents drive their kids to school when they could walk. I don't know why.

    In my eyes it does matter though... Your kid gets measles, my kid is vaccinated and doesn't get it, which is awesome, but then your child spreads the measles virus to someone who is again, not vaccinated.

    Again - A lot more circumstances than just you and I that I'm thinking of and why I think people should vaccinate.

    I believe parents are getting an unbalanced view of vaccines from the media. To me, the media is not presenting a balanced approach (if you vaccinate your children, THEY WILL BE AUTISTIC.)

    There is no such thing as a vaccine that is 100 percent safe, but I knowiseases such as polio and measles are very ugly as well.

    What about the other kids that aren't vaccinated for whatever reason?

    People that go to work when they are sick, and don't cough into their elbow or sneeze into a tissue.

    GO HOME BEFORE EVERYONE IS SICK!

    another thing that has always bothered me...

    """""Guys who do not open the car door for their lady upon entering and exiting a vehicle.""""""

    chivalry is not dead but it is on life support, quit acting like self absorbed tool and do it, you will amazed at the returns.
