Anti-Vaxx = Anti-Logic

So the current Internet meme running amok among the Anti-Vaxx crew is something along the lines of “It ain't my fault that folks are getting sick, it is all of the disease carrying illegal aliens that Obama has let across the borders.” The “logic” behind this thought process is that if 1000s of illegal aliens hadn't moved into the country, then all of the nasty diseases that had been eradicated decades ago wouldn't be seeing a resurgence.

Now, just for the sake of argument, let us assume that the basis of their argument is true. Let's pretend that the current Epidemic of Measles and Whooping Cough are the direct result of Obama's evil master plan to destroy the US of A by infecting all its citizens with nasty diseases so that they are to weak to resist when his evil Muslim Communist minions take over the country.

So, if this is true. If our beloved country is being ravaged by everything from Measles to Lycanthropy, how does it make sense to keep your children from being vaccinated? If we really are under some sort of biological attack, how does it make any sense to expose your children to possible illness and even death? Even if every single one of the infected people were rounded up tomorrow, the damage is already done so shouldn't every caring parent want to protect their children?

The pattern of this particular meme fits perfectly with pretty much every single Anti-Vaxx argument. The whole gist of their mentality is “It is not my job to take responsibility for my actions. Everyone else has to take responsibility instead.” Their attitude is that they should be allowed to do whatever they want and that others just have to deal with it. Don't believe me? Look at some of their arguments.

1. I have the right to not have my children vaccinated because the only people affected by it is my children.

2. If other people cannot be vaccinated because of health or medical reasons, then they should stay home.

3. Other people should be vaccinated so that they are protected from my unvaccinated children.

Needless to say, there are more arguments used by Anti-Vaxxers, but they pretty much all sound the same. My personal favorite is number 2 since Anti-Vaxxers would be honked off if someone suggested that they should keep their diseased little brats at home to keep Them from making other people sick.

Vaccinations save lives. This is a fact. There is no evidence that vaccines are dangerous. Also a fact. (Sorry but one study done by a doctor long since discredited does not eliminate the proof of literally 1000s of studies done since then to prove him wrong.) This Ludicrous idea that it is somehow better to allow your child to be infected by diseases such as Measles that can cause horrible scarring, serious complications and even death than to get them vaccinated is moronic.

Sadly, when the pandemics come the Anti-Vaxxers will still not admit that it is their fault. As their kids get sick and die, they will sue the government or which ever fast food joint they were in when their kid was infected. In no way shape or form will they accept the responsibility for the pain and suffering they will cause. Course, like I have said before, the Anti-Vaxx movement is a self correcting sort of stupid. As more and more people become ill, everyone who is a member will eventually die off from a disease that was considered eliminated decades ago. My only regret is that so many innocent people will have to suffer along with them till the problem is solved.
