They are way too stupid to see or understand this concept. They would much rather prove their ignorance and cluelessness by jumping up and down about being forced to do something by the evil govt.
Idiots like this are the reason conservatives are criticized as Neanderthal know-nothing’s. And most have no recollection of how devastating these diseases actually were, as recently as the 1950’s. Polio, whooping cough,pertussis, smallpox,etc etc etc.
They have no education beyond high school, if that, so they have no idea of the millions upon millions of people who used to die over the centuries until vaccination became commonplace.
This is the level of discourse that FR has become. Most of the truly intelligent or insightful posters have moved on leaving only the conspiracy nuts and stupid morons with a keyboard. So, no, they won’t understand. They will merely attack the messenger because they really believe they are the gifted ones. How pathetic.
I absolutely agree with every point you made.
I see multiple claims made without any supporting evidence, the first being that all the “good” Freepers (ie. who agreed with you) have left. People who talk like this are NO different than the Democrats. And funny thing, the Dems are the ones who think that Constitutional freedoms should be conditional on the science that you choose to believe.
We have medical doctors, scientists, engineers, and other educated people on our side.
You can always tell when someone has lost an argument: when they start insulting the other side.
The level of discourse has gotten much better since I came here more than ten years ago: from frantically waving Bush pompoms, to having eyes opened.
