Thank goodness. This is my biggest battle with other parents that I meet, convincing them of the stupidity of the "vaccines cause (insert unrelated genetic disease here ie: Autism)" argument.

Oh this makes me so happy. The worst thing about anti-vaxers is how they're not hurting themselves, they're hurting their kids as well as other peoples'. Good job California for getting them away from everyone else's kids. Next step: illegal to not give your kids vaccinations? Is that too far?

Thank goodness.  I know two set of parents who are anti-vaccers in California.  I hope they don't homeschool, neither mother has an education for that.  Both only graduated high school.

It's about time somebody called BS on the anti-vaxxers.  My daughter has a friend whose parents (or at least mom) are anti-vaxxers.  DW and I had several arguments about the friend coming to play before our younger ones had finished their one-year vaccinations.  Fortunately, everyone made it through without issues, but when measles finally hit the friend, I will so want to say, "I told you so."
