Haha, no thanks to you and your vaccines. Keep sticking people with diseases though, if that's what floats your boat. You didn't mention the Tuskegee Experiment in your above term paper, wonder why? I know about Malaria ridden blankets and men being witheld knowledge that would stop their painful,agonizing deaths. Enough for me to know I want no part of anyones needles. I can only speak for my family and myself, but we don't have vacc, and were healthy. I've never had a flu shot, and I've never had the flu. Don't need 30 years of school to figure that one out.

People who don't vaccinate their kids and trust in the rest of us to get our shots to keep them healthy are detestable.

The difference being that people that watch TV and drink soda don't cause other people to watch TV and drink soda.

More so our healthy bodies that God gave us and a balanced diet of fruits and vegatables, but I've heard your theory before. I don't "trust in the rest" of anybody for ****. I take care of mine, and we choose to not inject ourselves with the very things they "protect" against.While I don't think I will fall over and die if I got a flu shot, I don't see the need, and I don't buy the "rest of us" have one claim, because I'm around sick people every season, and my immune system is obviously doing its job. To each his own. If everyone were on the same side of the boat, the boat would sink.

Tyler Smith (as well as the others, I've never seen so many missed layups by B.Will) is performing so poorly? Also, it's a known fact that pot heads lack motivation and focus.... Is it just a coincidence that several members on this team lack motivation and focus at times on the court?

It is also a known fact that Tracy McGrady used to get high before every game...back when he was good.

It is also a known fact that the vast majority of NBA players are recreational weed smokers.

It is also a known fact that at least 27% of VN members consider the above-quoted post to be the single dumbest post in the long and storied history of the site.

If you don't vaccinate your kids for measles and rotavirus and polio and and that sort of thing, then yes you are trusting in the rest of us. The only reason why incidences of those diseases are low in America is because everybody else gets their shots. You're piggybacking on everybody else's immunity.

I don't care if you don't get a flu shot. Vaya con Dios; enjoy it if you get it. But the basic schedule of vaccinations is something completely different. There are a crapton of modern parents, who have never heard anybody rasping through an iron lung or seen little kids walking around with braces thanks to polio, who think that their little Johnny and Susie are too precious to get vaccinated because of some theoretical problems that they read about on a conspiracy-nut website. Screw them.

I remember going over to my (deep breath)...best friend's...ex girlfriend's house...where her roommate....was a certain current basketball player's....girlfriend (exhale).

Everyone was high. It was a decent low-key evening. I do remember telling my friend afterwards though, that "this is probably why they're so inconsistent." They proceeded to beat Bama and Auburn, but lose to Miss. St.

..... If you think that "No Vaccines at all = Healthy," then perhaps you should ask someone a little older than you about the suffering people endured during the days of Polio, Haemophilus influenza type B, Measles, neonatal Hepatitis B, Diphtheria, Tetanus. . . .and even more recently with invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae infection.....

I had a good friend in High School who had Polio as a child. He was born in 53 or 54. I don't know why he wasn't vaccinated, maybe the vaccine was not available to his family at this time.

He was about 6'4" on his left side and about 5'8" on his right side. He would try to play basketball, but he would fall down a lot, due to his weak leg. But he was pretty good on one leg, so he may have been bad to the bone on two.

That's one tradegy of not having children vaccinated that I have seen.

I associate with quite a few people who smoke pot on a regular basis, and it effects each individual differently, some of them are quite lazy and frankly come across as borderline retarded, but then there are others who seem to be quite motivated after blazing up a fatty and come across as quite intelligent and full of energy.

Haha, u feel better? The reason for the lower instences can also be attributed to better hygiene(sp).But we are free to do what we wish (for now, see the state of Conn/Mass) and I wish not to. I suppose you want to tell me what to teach my kids too, so as to not be riding your knowledge coattail.

These different reactions can be seen when different strands are inhaled. A sativa gives one a motivated, colorful, artistic high (expensive stuff) while most mid grades are indicas, which give one a tired,lazy,bodybuzz high.(Cheaper stuff)

Thanks, V. I feel the same way, but I try to keep my version a little tamer for obvious reasons.

Things get really interesting when parents want to withhold vaccines and still have their kids certified to attend public schools or daycare. I decided a long time ago against signing vaccine waivers.

My friend I mentioned above who is a polio victim is living a normal life and is raising a family. But I'm sure he wonders a lot of the time what his life could have been like if only he'd have gotten a polio vaccination rather than polio.

Hygiene?? The reason why your kids haven't been battling the measles and mumps or, worse, potentially crapping themselves to death with rotavirus isn't because you've been washing your hands. It's because 99 percent of the people you come in contact with have had their vaccinations. You're a freeloader.

Hahaha. Watch the name calling or ill turn you in to the Msg Board Police...I'm sorry that your simple minded and can't possibly comprehend any theory other than your own, but that doesn't make me a free-loader. Many experts agree that the lower number of these cases can (obviously not solely) be attributed to better hygeine. But I forgot, your the all-knowing. Permission to speak your highness?

Hahaha, washing my hands? LOL your hurting my sides ole buddy!! Anyone that doesn't know that the medical world sits on truth due to pressure from the major drug companies is clueless. Sorry if it ruins your little perfect world to let you know that things are crooked, but its how it is. Don't be mad at me. I suppose your one of those that actually asks your doctor about the Meds you see on commercials. Haha, Ask your doctor about.... NO THANKS- that's why he/she is a doctor. Why do I need to reccomend a certain med to my doctor?? WTF

No doubt the drug companies do some shady crap. No doubt doctors aren't infallible -- see my post earlier in the thread about how the medical establishment's attitude towards alcohol makes it difficult to take seriously what they say about THC. But the rational, intelligent response to that is to develop a healthy skepticism about it and to do your own research, not to just decide unilaterally that the entire American medical establishment is crooked and that their science is worthless. That's not freethinking; that's nihilism.

And what you describe exactly parralels my rel with the American Medical monster- vacc are one of the things I freely chOose to avoid. If I break my arm, I obviously get a cast. I'm not an idiot. I don't have a problem with many meds, others I do. I hate the whole ADHD ADD thing, thinks its a cop out(to put it simply). I use my knowledge,beliefs, and experience to determine what's best for me. If everyone were on the same side of the boat, the boat would sink. (Example; If there were a tribe of people, and the men could either choose to defend their tribe(which was a must for survival) or to be a reproductive male. For the sake of the point, they can only do one. If every one of them want to mate, they'll all die because no1 defends them/gets food. If they all want to fight, no1 continues their seed and legacy and they defend a bunch of old women till they all die. Is either choice the wrong one? Its relative to the current situation and number of fighters/reproducers. So they must maintain a cerain level of balance between the two, and not everyone lives the life they wish. If I don't have to vaccinate my kids I'm not going to. Its not my fault what other people do/dont do. Maybe if I was in a different time period where the risks/ %'s were different, I'd vaccinate my children. But its 2010, and the risks of not vaccinated are on par with the risks of negative side effects(not necc lethal) for choosing to. I'm only responsible for my choices and actions. I can't be held responsible or blamed for others choices.
