TEXAS REPUBLICAN SAYS VACCINES ARE ‘SORCERY,’ CLAIMS ‘PARENTAL RIGHTS’ ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN SCIENCE
An anti-vaxxer Texas lawmaker is facing criticism for attacking a prominent vaccinologist and branding inoculations “sorcery.”
Republican Rep. Jonathan Stickland—who left the hardline conservative Freedom Caucus last week—began a Twitter spat with Peter Hotez, a professor at the Baylor College of Medicine, on Tuesday, the Houston Chronicle reported.
Hotez had been lamenting an increase in vaccine exemptions, which he said put children “in harm's way for the financial gain of special and outside interest groups.” But Stickland accused Hotez of hypocrisy and suggested that parental rights to reject vaccinations were paramount.
“You are bought and paid for by the biggest special interest in politics,” Stickland wrote to Hotez. “Do our state a favor and mind your own business. Parental rights mean more to us than your self enriching ‘science.’”

America is ed up when a tiny but intense, predatory, aggressive faction succeeds in hurting the vastly larger majority.
Forced-birthers is another example.

Disagree with the politician, but do parental rights only matter when abortion is in play? I think all Americans should be required by law to be vaccinated, fwiw. I am also pro choice.
