Dumb Blonde Sayz: Vaccines Kill Ur Kidz!

I'll do whatever she says as long as she dresses my hotdogs.

After watching TJ submit to his viewers about Jenny McCarthy and autism, I was amazed to find people actually buy into this.

Point short--I'm against things that cause preventable and survivable diseases to become fatal and deadly. I'm vigorously opposed to Christian Science, I'm skeptical to often say I'm against children who deny treatment for perfectly treatable/curable diseases, and so on, you get the point.

So now this bimbo (and I use that term correctly, truthfully, and non-offensively) is telling me that because I'm going to give my children vaccine(s) shots when I have children--that I'm going to give them autism?

I didn't even bother reading into this horseshit, and coming from another airbrushed celebrity sell-out, I don't see what the point is in reading into it. I have a strong, strong feeling that there is virtually no relationship between autism and vaccination shots, and I can only imagine how many children have suffered serious ailments or have died because parents are so stupid as to follow such idiotic assumptions from such idiotic people.

I don't really know much about this, but it makes me angry. So I turn to you, my friends (and enemies).

Do you buy into this shit? Can you inform me on some of the arguments? Why is it that these celebrities get treated like professionals?

Am I missing something?

Or do people just have the tendency to obey those who are faked to appear as though they have achieved impossible-to-reach standards through means of airbrushing, plastic surgery, and the likes?

Nope, that'd cause autism.

Too bad really, and I was so close to perfecting it.

It's ridiculous, studies have shown it to be ridiculous. Jenny McCarthy is bad for children and mothers. Not only is she telling mothers that they should leave their children open to these diseases, but she also suggests that mothers should just "know" things without talking to doctors or bothering with science, leaving mothers who don't just "know" (ie. all of them) feeling like they are doing something wrong or that they aren't cut out to be mothers.

Some vaccines used to contain mercury, I believe, thus leading to the autism concerns. I'm pretty sure, however, that they changed all that a while ago.

I feel so bad, poor children, usually I don't give one about the children.

But 219 preventable deaths because of this woman, that's just horrid.

How do people fall for this? It's madness.

But she never said vaccines made kids stupid did she? Only that made them autistic.

And you know, personally I would rather be autistic than stupid...unfortunately I think I suffer from a mild version of both ailments :(

They did, but no causal link between mercury and autism was ever found - even in studies looking into it.

The real problem is that the symptoms of autism usually aren't seen until just about the same time that children start getting the bulk of their early vaccinations. This leaves parents searching for something to blame to target vaccinations, because they are convinced (wrongly) that their children were perfectly normal before the shots.

Takaram wrote:I had all my vaccinations, and I don't have autism. But you know what, I actually encourage this. Stupid people have sicker kids, and are less likely to pass on the stupid genes.


It doesn't really work that way. If large numbers of people decide not to have their children vaccinated, that endangers everyone. First of all, the immunity gained by vaccination is not absolute. So, even if you vaccinate your children, they might still get sick if exposed to the diseases. Also, the more people who carry the disease, the more likely it becomes that it will mutate in a way that gets around the vaccines, leaving everyone vulnerable.

Depends on the content, for a while I stopped watching him, a lot of his videos started being just pointless censored shit, but more recently he's gotten far more dramatic and emotional.

Hell, I can disagree with him on a lot of things, but his sexiness and great emotional ranting just draws me closer every time.
