All part of God's plan 🫠

This is a criminal act of neglect.

They should've mentioned whether the parents were going to be sued or not.

Is there a legal precedent for this?

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 13 points 2 weeks ago

For letting children die of negligence, sure. Whether lack of vaccination can be considered negligence, I dunno. A quick search for Canadian cases didn't turn up anything.

Only kinda, Children’s Aid Society of Peel(Region) v. H.(T.M.C.) (2008) Showed that a mother being vaccine negligent could have the kids taken away temporarily to receive medical care, but the kids didn't die.

It showed that not vaccinating your child could be considered negligent

Weaponized disinformation is criminal. This bizarre belief vaccines are somehow bad is wrecking the health of people.

If it was just their own health that is being impacted, I would have ignored it, but the fact that unvaccinated people are dangerous to society is what make me mad. I had a discussion with someone who insisted it is their right, and that the guberment have no business insisting that they get the vaccine while working for the federals. Trying to explain that you can either abide by society's rules or "leave" didn't get me anywhere, it's like those people believe that society exists to serve only them and not the other way around.

Humanity is doomed. And I really really fear for my kids and their kids, IFF my kids can afford to have children of their own.

Can we just leave this planet already?

I had a knock down drag out fight with my CW who refuses to vaccinate her poor sickly autistic son.
