I am SO tired of these anti-vaxxers saying they are being discriminated against! There is no discrimination! None of your RIGHTS are being denied. Stop with this need to be a victim of self imposed issues!

What a waste of time and energy.

They must not be football fans!

Thousands — in a country of 330 million.

Parents suck

Gibbs is a fascist. Hope that helps
