I have no issue with your personal choices. I happen to share some of your concerns, for example, I do not get flu shots. But I don’t try to elevate my personal choices into social issues.

That’s my beef. Perhaps I misjudged you based on a misapprehension of your posts.

I wouldn’t force my opinion on anyone. But when someone declares that refusniks are simple and ignorant, as in post #2, I am compelled to stand my ground for my children’s sake, and others who are harrassed by the state for daring to part from the herd for any reason they may choose. The social issue is on display in #2....which issue you seemed to championed...proffering the position that declining state-mandated vaccination is a danger to society, and that, oh well, if something goes boink, you can get a nice electric wheelchair for the kid.....or burial expenses... paid....for the good of society. Some comfort! I take much comfort that I, an ignorant societal termite, did at least one smart thing in my life.

I advocate for open minds on the issue.
