The topic is measles. Would you like to comment on that?
I did. Four comments back in history.
To summarize:
X: These people that let their kids die from medical neglect need to be jailed
Me: Yes they do, but it isn't going to happen under either the Pubes or the Dems
X: Oh, you're one of those "both parties are the same" idjits
Me: No, Dems are the lesser of two evils, but they haven't been "the good guys" in a long time. They've only been "the least bad", and they're getting less "least bad" over time.
The Democratic party now is like the Republican party was in the 70's. Give them 20 more years with the way they've been going, and they won't be defending vaccines anymore, either.
This whole thread has everything to do with vaccines; context is important. The whole sequence of statements on the thread is significant to what's said.
