Parents claim measles is not that bad after having only one child die
2025-03-23 00:47:50
The parents of a Texas girl who died from the measles are defending their decision not to vaccinate their daughter. "She says they would still say 'Don't do the shots,'" an unidentified translator for the parents said. "They think it’s not as bad as the media is making it out to be."
"They believe she’s better off where she is now," continued the translator, which is probably true, because when she was alive she had to live with her parents in West Texas.
"The measles wasn’t that bad. They got over it pretty quickly," the mother said of her four surviving children who were treated with castor oil and inhaled steroids, then recovered. The deceased girl’s father insisted that measles helps build up a person's immune system. His dead daughter had a different opinion on the matter.
For those keeping score at home, the parents are saying that they'd rather have their kids get sick, have 1 out of 5 of them die, and treat them with a castor oil and steroid cocktail rather than have them vaccinated. Because everyone knows that that there are no side effects when children snort steroids.
The parents' interview was recorded Saturday can be seen on the website of Children's Health Defense, an organization founded in 2007 by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is now secretary for the U.S. Health and Human Services Department. Children's Health Defense promotes medical treatments that kill 20% of the children in families that use them.

During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.

About 14 years ago when I was on a road trip and stopped in Seattle, I was invited to a party. At this party there were these little tiny glasses sitting in a flat-bottomed bowl of ice. Thin cylinders about an inch in diameter and 4 inches tall, with thick glass at the bottom. Into these were poured frozen AKVAVIT... also known as the water of life. (More...)
