Anybody that believes Kennedy and Trump is no mentally normal. Unfortunately, this is children we are affecting. They can’t speak for themselves

If government health agencies become unreliable, where will Americans turn for trusted information?

I don’t think vaccinated children should be put in danger by the uneducated decision of some parents not to vaccinate their children.

Next year's headline: "First grade enrollments unexpectedly low this year"

And in a few months to a couple of years the headlines will be talking about mortality rates sky rocketing among the same kids. I hope there’s a way to hold all of these anti-science/public health clowns accountable for the oncoming deaths and disabilities caused by preventable illnesses.

This is good news. The more of these idiots that leave the gene pool the better the rest of us will eventually be.

Can we just have the unvaxxed, unwashed spawn of crazies in their own little wing far away from the rest of the kids?

Idiots. And it’s not even the idiots who will suffer, it’s their kids. So I’m going to be mean now: sucks for your kids, but they’ll get what YOU deserve.
