Disease isn't a morality issue, it's a public safety issue. If the vaccine was 100% safe, which apparently it wasn't, is should have been made 100% mandatory. If they come out with an AIDS vaccine that's 100% safe, it should be 100% mandatory. Or a malaria vaccine, or any other major lethal illness. I've travelled all over the world, and my shot record is the size of a small phone book. I'd would look like the DC Metro phone book if there were more shots available.

Disease that is not communicable and is contracted via a choice of risky behavior is not a public safety issue it is the choice of the individual and if it is a child it is the responsibility of the Parent.

I have never seen so many people abdicate their conservative character because they are supporting a weak candidate.

This is shameful.

It’s “party over principle.”

And yes, it is shameful.

“Disease that is not communicable and is contracted via a choice of risky behavior is not a public safety issue it is the choice of the individual and if it is a child it is the responsibility of the Parent.”
It would be improper to wish typhoid, malaria, measles, diphtheria, whooping cough, syphilis, brucellocis, or polio upon any other human being.
Except for you and your progeny.
All disease is communicable.

Dividing diseases into groups based off of what you feel the perceived moral ranking of a given virus is utterly defies reason.

Aside from outright rape, there's plenty of very good kids that make one very bad mistake. They might have been taught better, know better, and feel guilty afterward, but human biology prompts people to reproduce. It's hard enough when that mistake leads to creating a new life. These days it can lead to suffering and death. That's a hell of a thing to wish on kids, when science gave you the power to stop it. This is a dark, twisted version of conservatism.

If you had 50 vaccines for the words deadliest diseases, sent from the future, you really only give your kids 40 of them? "No need for those last ten, Timmy. Those are for behavioral diseases. You won't ever sin, so you won't be needing those shots."

If that's how you think, then you were right to capitalize the word Parent like God.
