#10  When I first purused this headline, I thought it said "Muslims urged to refuse 'un-Islamic' vacations". Then, I thought, where exactly does one go, as a strident Muslim, to have vactation? Qom, Mekkka, Medina?

Oh, and I hear that Beirut is lovely this time of year, too.

#9  If they want to be stupid like that, let their genes die out. Think of it as chlorinating the gene pool....

"They're born here, their parents were, too. Where we gonna deport them?"


Well, the middle of the ocean works for me! Drop off the Donks too, while we're at it!

#7  I expect they will suffer the consequences of their actions.

From diseases-ridden Gaia, perhaps, but from english society, which will bend backward to accomodate, I doubt it.

#5  Children who have not been vaccinated should be banned for entering hospitals or making use of the school system.

Especially if their parents refuse to wash their hands because the lotion uses alcohol...

#3  Sorry. Meant to say did cause thei kids to be autistic.

#2  Ex, no can do. There's plenty of non-Islamic nuts who also refuse vaccination for religious reasons, or because they still refuse to believe that vaccinations did not cause their children to be autistic. They're born here, their parents were, too. Where we gonna deport them?

If they want to be stupid like that, let their genes die out. Think of it as chlorinating the gene pool....

#1  Children who have not been vaccinated should be banned for entering hospitals or making use of the school system. There is no reason the rest of us should put our families at risk from religious zealots who insist on making themselves plague bearers.

In fact, why stop there? Be vaccinated or be deported.
