Who are you to determine people should not have the right to refuse a medical treatment they are not sure about? Who are you to determine we all have to take this stuff and we can have no say about it?
Jackboot thug is what you are. Arrogant and elitist.
We’re supposed to trust the drug and big pharma companies? Our doctors? Who get kickbacks for promoting certain drugs and vaccines? The same medical community that has a revolving door of employment between FDA overseers and the drug companies they are supposed to oversee? The same medical community that for 20 years had doctors, ON TELEVISION, promoting various cigarette brands as being healthy and good to smoke?
And because some people have less info than others to make a decision, or are ‘stupid’ as you label most of the people in America, that justifies taking the right away from everyone?
You’re a dangerous person. I think you’d feel a lot better over in a statist, totalitarian peoples’ utopia. Really tired of talking with you. I don’t waste time talking to walls.
I make no such decisions. Our governments are elected by the people and empowered to make such decisions in some cases. If it is abused then there are steps to change those who do so.
People did have the right to refuse the program which has all the tail feathers ruffled. I have refused certain medical treatments for my children when I did not believe them appropriate.
None of that refutes the obvious fact that the People on the whole are scientific Know Nothings whose judgment on scientific issues is worthless.
Whether people are informed or not is not the issue. That doesn’t determine whether they have rights or not.
By that extension nobody should have rights because no one is knowledgeable on EVERYTHING. That’s not how we figure out rights.
People have rights to say no to government when it says you have to take something. The individual has a right to life and self-preservation and because they alone have to bear the risks of that medical procedure, the state does not have the right to tell individuals in essence you must give up your right to life for the better of the rest of us.
If you think that’s the country we need to live in, I’ll fight you and every one of you who think this, to the death. That’s the state playing God. I don’t trust other men who do not deserve the power to coerce me to put something in my body I believe is too risky for me to take. I know you do not have a problem with it.
You are also a hypocrite. You opted your kids out of medical procedures you thought were too risky. What makes you think you’re not part of the stupid masses, who the hell are you to decide you’re smart enough or you’ve read enough to make a decision like that? Why do YOU think YOU’RE smart enough that YOU get to opt out?
You really are your screen name. People can’t decide their own medical treatment and have to have it forced on them by government because they’re stupid according to you. Yet you think you’re smart enough to opt your kids out of certain medical procedures. What gall and arrogance.
See, you’re a freaking statist. That’s your problem. The state and its ‘experts’ are god for the rest of us schlepps. YOU are somehow smart enough to make your own decisions and be exempt from the states’ coercion, just not anyone else. I love liberty. You hate it. I know that people make decisions for all sorts of reasons. I allow them to say ‘no’ for any reason. You aren’t for that kind of freedom. Big Brother and his experts, who are uncorrupted and only thinking of your best interests, they know best. And you’re more than happy to have them force it on people ‘for their own good’. You make me sick.
What kind of test do you have that people must pass to satisfy you they are saying ‘no’ to something that is a ‘right’ reason?
Tell me, arrogant sob, who elected Rick Perry to make an executive order mandating gardasil? Other than perhaps his brother in law at Merck or whoever makes this?
Your completely off your rocker. We don’t elect officials so they can force bullsh1t mandates on us. They don’t have absolute powers. They don’t have the right to force me to take a potentially deadly risk with my life if I don’t agree to it. I don’t have an obligation to die for you or society in general unless I DECIDE to take on that risk willingly.
I won’t reply to anymore posts from you. Go back to the Animal Farm, or 1984, or the soviet union. Much more your style. Everyone stupid. State will protect you. Do not worry. We’d never let you take something bad. You’re too stupid to figure it out. You can’t refuse anymore anyway, just lie back, and enjoy it. Trust us, we have no conflicts of interest. We are never wrong. If you die, well, you know there’s always risk, we’re not liable, even though you had no choice to take it or not.
Freaking big brother nutball.
