It may not be fair but fundamentalist Christians are thought of as the anti-science crowd and so would be thought to be anti-vacine (even if they aren't over represented).

Again, I don't think skepticism towards vaccination stems from being "anti-science." It's more the result of caution, skepticism, or outright paranoia towards chemicals, the companies who manufacture them, and/or the processes and mechanisms that approve their safety.

I'm not sure that it isn't anti-science when the scientific community at large has stated the importance and safe-nature of vaccination but you still disregard it because of something you read online or something someone from your mom's group told you. That in essence is anti-science.
There is no healthy skepticism about most current vaccinations. They have DECADES of peer-reviewed studies (by individuals beyond governmental authority), and have come to the same conclusions.
we will see an increase in parents vaccinating their children. Lets be perfectly honest. There are probably plenty that had only small reservations about having their children vaccinated and figured the likelihood of them ever getting something like measles was highly improbable so why take the risk. Once it becomes apparent that there is a greater possibility of their child contracting the decease that fear will surpass the small fear of having them vaccinated.
To an extent IMO many were being selfish and counting on the rest of the population to take care o the problem and they could free ride along with the herd. But they will be now be more scared that isn't working any longer and act in their own self interest as a result.
Of course there always will be others that nothing will convince.
influx of child immigrants? There was talk at the time that many were not vaccinated and had measles.
I don't know, but even if so I doubt too many immigrants have the wherewithal to enroll their children in private schooling or homeschool so this would be easily solved it all schools made certain every student has been vaccinated prior to allowing entrance.

That's certainly true when applied towards those who think they know vaccines cause more harm than good, especially when the basis of this supposed knowledge tends to be an alarmist website or Twitter post.
Shit, I don't want to make it sound like I'm sticking up for these guys anymore. I just don't like reflexive "anti-___________!" accusations being tossed about when there are other considerations, which probably leads to a reflexive reaction on my own part, and I'm stopping.

I don't know whether to commend you or shake my head. If T-Bone or other Black posters had to put up with Ebonics printed every 5th thread, I think it would stop being funny. Why you put up with it is your business, but enough is enough
I don't give a fuck what you like, what you don't like. What your favorite TV show is What the last book you read, whether you are into women or men. In other words I don't give a fuck about you

in the clearest possible terms in lieu of drawing you pictures, go on with whatever it is that you do while you are awake and good luck with whatever it is. I mean that with all the sincerity I can muster typing
but one year we should get together and watch "A Christmas Story". It's a favorite yuletide movie of mine and we can share a cup of egg nog and maybe spoon or something. Just to be in a happy place.
If you can't laugh at the absurd but harmless stereotyping of race,
You're going to get pissed off a lot. If people want to actuallu get racist, Im sure my response will be a bit different, but are these ribbing really something to get offended by? Not to me.

It's willful ignorance at this point.

When in doubt, blame the Mexicans...

Sorry, when in doubt blame the dark people.
Am I considered dark? Or just have a bit of yellowish tint? You can blame me if you like.

Yes, but you get a pass because you burn the huts of other ones. Net gain for whitey.

You look like you could be Hepatitis Ronnie...
I call bullshit! I can't picture you being all gangsta in the 90s.
And I never listened to Ice Cube in the 90s...I was more into country then (that's what you get when you lived in Oklahoma and Texas).

I tell that jaundiced joke all the time about me. Nobody ever seems to get it.
Of course, that doesn't stop wild speculation when a simple Google search would have revealed the answer...

Hey, it isn't our fault you have liver problems! You should have gotten the Hep-B vaccine.
Actually it's because my liver has taken a beating from all of the fire water...don't you know, Koreans are considered the Irish of East Asia?

Then I guess we'll have to start calling you O'Ronnie? Was your mother from Killarney?
Hah....brings to mind a scene from The Ref:
-Dr. Wong? You don't look like a Wong.
Well, my mother was Irish.
-And your father?
Wasn't.
Interesting....
See, and I was complimenting you too.
