The move would make Florida the first U.S. state to withdraw from mandates credited with boosting vaccination rates and preventing infectious disease outbreaks.

    They will have lots of fun once they move out of there. If they get old enough in the first place.

    The US is already at the tail end of modern countries when it comes to dying children due to the horrible health care. They are doing everything they can to get even worse.

    Up in Minnesota the only hope I have is that the kids don’t create a national/international crisis when they travel and spread various diseases. We are all in this together.

      The last time I was visiting my parents in South Carolina we went to a local art faire thing, and one of the stands was a dude selling art of Confederates. Not just any Confederates, Black Confederates. And the dude selling this art, was a older black man in full fucking Confederate uniform. The best part was the massive bread boards he had full of tiny font Confederate apologia that read like a SovCit manifesto.

      Don’t think the color of a person’s skin naturally dictates their opinions on matters that you think it should, people will surprise you every time.

      That is genuinely a terrible thing to do as a person of color. Seriously though, people suffered extreme abuse and he is out here saying that getting vaccinated is basically the same.

    I mean if they chose to stay within their borders and die, I’d be perfectly fine with that and would actually support it.

    But they’re going to cross borders and infect us. That’s basically a hostile act.
