I didn’t think that the anti-vaccination trend would take off in the pragmatic mid-west. The decal that I saw today does not object to vaccines all together, no; the group simply wants to protect citizens from mandatory vaccines. I can be sympathetic who fear that the compulsory vaccination of children from terrible diseases will lead to a mandatory papilloma virus vaccine and ultimately the slut shaming of their precious daughters. However, whooping cough and smallpox are horrific diseases and children grow up to be sexual.

I am fine that vaccines are a choice, but I want there to be some kind of penalty for people who opt out. Should one live life disease free, the reward is health. Contracting a disease you opted out of vaccinating should result in a state tax on top of an insurance “told you so”.

If I were a vengeful witch, I’d conjure up polio ridden spirits to haunt the fuck out of this family.
