    Some things like unchecked immigration and well, just digging up some old virus from the perma frost, just shouldn't be allowed to happen.
    That and a bunch of other "thought we had this one done" diseases. Factor in stupid soccer moms that think immunization causes downs syndrome and we have the bad idea trifecta.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    Oh, don't wind me up about the "vaccines cause autism" crowd or any of the other goatropes in Big Autism Inc... and note for the record this is speaking AS an autistic. I find it curious how they sloganeer about how "it's time to listen" and yet presume to speak for all of us on the spectrum rather than let those of us who can speak for ourselves... oh wait, that would disrupt the narrative and their grifting gravytrain, right back to Pournelle's Iron Law of Bureaucracy.
