In reply to the discussion: Du'ers and Vaccines: a poll. [View all]EvolveOrConvolve
(6,452 posts)As a society, we create rules and regulations that promote the health, welfare, and prosperity of society. If you don't believe that, then a Progressive website is probably not the appropriate place for you. Ron Paul's website is -> that way.
Follow the logic:
1. Using a nail gun to kill someone is illegal
2. Using a car to intentionally kill someone is illegal
3. If I kill someone accidentally with a nail gun or my car, I have civil liability for the death
4. If someone drowns in my pool, I have civil liability for the death
If one of these asshole anti-vaxers who doesn't vaccinate their kids causes me to die, is it illegal? Do they have any civil liability or other responsibility for my death? Does it make a difference that they intentionally refused vaccinations, causing an outbreak that led to my death?
You sound like one of those "I've got my health, so fuck you" libertarians who don't give a shit about society or other members of society. I mean, you've got yours, why should you give a shit about me, right?
