forced vaccination of teen girls

That's not true no matter how many times it's said.

You just signed up today to bash Rick Perry and Michelle Bachmann?

Normally we welcome new people to Free Republic, and I would like to extend that greeting to you at some point, but not quite yet.

But that’s what Perry’s order did: it set up a requirement. Just because there’s a loophole — a way to “say no,” in the governor’s parlance — doesn’t mean the requirement doesn’t exist.

That's not true no matter how many times it's said.

It is not true, that it is not true, no matter how many times you repeat it.

Opt Out=Mandatory for most kids.

I don't understand what the beef is with some on the HPV vaccine vaccination of teenage girls that protects against some strains of the human papilloma virus, a cause of cervical cancer

"forced vaccination of teen girls"

That's not true no matter how many times it's said.

No matter how hard you stomp your feet and deny the truth about Governor Perry's Gardasil mandate, it still happened, and is a matter of public record.

Parents were given a choice to "opt out" of the vaccine for their underage girls, but that's not the same as having free choice and sovereignty over the very bodies of your own children.

If parents weren't aware of their rights under Perry's executive order, their girls would have been forced to take the vaccine.

It was an un-American thing to do, and you really need to stop defending it on this website.
