I'd rather have autism than measles. I'd rather have autism than Stupid Syndrome. I'd rather have autism than Educated Too Damn Much Syndrome. I'd rather have autism than...

People reading this are going to hate me, but I believe we should strike religious and philosophical exemptions and make it mandatory. Not only that, but prosecute people who know full well what the risks are and they still get other children sick. We should make them pay others' medical bills as well. The question is if we can find them.

I'm glad that my parents got me vaccinated. I'd rather be autistic than dead.

Autism can't kill you in itself. Not being vaccinated because your parents are stupid can. The first study that held vaccines responsible for Autism was falsified, and the man responsible has been alienated from the scientific community as a result. Unfortunately, it is much to late to stop the disinformation machine.

Vaccine theories tend to be held mostly by people who either have blank stare or ask me to dumb it down when I bring up genetics.

...All the stupid parents that don't vaccinate their kids should look at all the Victorian Momento Mori (post-mortem) photos of all the kids/babies that died because their weren't any vaccines available. I'd say ~90% of Momento Mori photos are children. The death rate for babies/children were very high during that era. There's a reason why these vaccines were created. Autism existed long before vaccines. Vaccines don't cause Autism. I'd rather have a healthy kid than a dead one.

40% of parents are afraid to get their kids vaccinated? There isn't an epidemic of autism - there's an epidemic of stupidity!
