Not only is refusing to get your kids vaccinated aggressively stupid, it's also exceedingly selfish, a fact anti-vaxxers will have a hard time dismissing now that 6-year-old leukemia patient Rhett Krawitt has come to national attention. His father is asking the school district to require students to get their damned vaccine shots, unless they have valid medical reasons not to. And "dumb parents just don't believe in vaccines" is not a medical reason.
Or private schools. The deeply held convictions of anti-vaxx parents will be sorely tested by the extra time they'll spend home-"schooling" the little bastards.
I disagree, only because children who have a valid medical reason (immuno-suppressed, allergic, etc.) to not getting vaccinated would be punished, even if the parents want to innoculate them and comply with the rules.

Actually, they shouldn&#039;t allow them anywhere.
The dad was on Morning Edition today and somehow, he sounded a lot more reasonable than Jenny McCarthy.
Smartness helps. Reeding two. Also eating those cakes we like.
Non-vaccinated kids should not be allowed to attend public schools. Period.
Good thought . . . but guess who won&#039;t take the vaccine?
This is bad news for Skynet and the machines.

Responding politely and requesting permission? Where does he think he is, Europe?
Here in &#039;Merica you&#039;re supposed to yell and scream and threaten people!
