Should vaccinations for children be compulsory?

[RageBeoulve]

Are they murdering people?  Or simply not using science to prevent death?

If you can save your damn kids and choose not to(Especially when you could do it for a five dollar copay and a couple of hours out of your day), you have killed them. This can't be misconstrued into a tolerance issue. Best be trollin, nigger.

I'm a firm believer in freedom of and freedom from religion.
I can't tell someone else what parts of heir religion to practice.
Can I think they are stupid, yes.  Should compel them to do as I do? No.

This does not excuse them from being murderers. Sure they are free to practice religion however they choose, but when their kids lives are threatened, shit gets real.

These children should have been placed in a more suitable, and safer environment.

I'm saying that they aren't committing murder.  They are simply denying science.

I didn't have a problem with him having his vaccinations.  I did have a problem with the way they administer them all in one go. 

He got very sick after a round of jabs so i said no.   Still had them though.  Just had to pay to have them individually and spaced apart.

I hate the nhs   'one size fits all approach'

I agree with you, in principle, but who should decide what that safe environment is? Who gets to define it and on what grounds? What evidence should be taken into account? Is a paper in a scientific journal enough, or does the evidence have to be in the form of an approved medicine marketed by a multinational company? Should the decision-makers be a committee or a politically elected group? Are there minimum requirements in education or experience in parenting?

It's a can of worms and would eat away most of our freedoms in a heartbeat.
