Judge Backs Parents On Immunizations
The Wyoming Supreme Court ruled in favor of the parents in March, saying such hearings are illegal. Debbie Cooper, who has three young children, said Tuesday that she was pleased that the issue had also been approved by the federal judge. ``I think most parents kind of have an instinct for what is best for their children,'' she said. Steven H. Aden, a lawyer for the Rutherford Institute, a Washington, D.C., civil rights organization which aided the parents, said the hearings probably marked the first time in American history in which a state required residents to prove their ``religious sincerity.'' ``We thought that had gone the way of the Inquisition,'' he said. The state Health Department had made the vaccinations mandatory, contending it had a duty to protect children from disease and that too many non-immunized children would endanger other children.
Don't vaccinate your child unless you decide it is safe and good for your child. Don't do it because the government, school, doctor, or "expert, or peer pressure says you have to. You don't!
We still have religous freedom and a Bill of Rights in America!---but only if we assert our rights!!!
