        Even IF they did, the incidence is obviously insanely low, and yes… if someone would rather have a dead child than an autistic one, they shouldn’t have children at all.

    Well what doesn’t kill you, makes- oh. Well, if it doesn’t kill you, then it makes you-

    Oh, well, never mind then. There are absolutely no redeeming qualities when it comes to having measles.

        That should be parental abuse. Why isn’t it?

        A “free” country?

      This kind:

      ““It’s not as bad as they show in the news,” said a woman in a nearby park, who did not wish to be identified. Children who are vaccinated are “not as healthy,” she added”
