There must a full moon.  Think about the American public's reaction when they are told that Texas and New Mexico are not border states because they are "big."  HA HA HA.

Who said they weren't border states, Strawman "Smith"?

Now what gives you the silly idea that the measles outbreak has anything to do with your alleged "open-border policy" (that never actually existed), and not kooks like you thinking vaccines are evil because ignorant people would rather swallow bleach and horse dewormer.

  Some of us have been around long enough to have HAD the measles. Back then you didn't want young infants or the extremely elderly to become infected, but generally, if you lived in a family and went to public school, people, (predominately kids), coming down with measles and/or chicken pox was very common. Anybody over 50 has lived through this/knows this. I'm not sure if the media attention measles is currently getting is due to people refusing to follow orders regarding vaccinations and/or a covert slap at home schooling and religious sects. Another public "shunning" in order to gain compliance.   

Yes, and a lot of children ended up dead as a result.  Ah, the good ol' days.

Not a single kid has gotten sick from anything RFK Jr has done.  He was just recently appointed.   The measles outbreak is originating in the border states.  It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to deduce its origins.

Sherlock needs to explain why there is no measles outbreak at the actual border.  Or just admit that this is xenophobic nonsense.

The measles outbreak is a byproduct of the open border policy.  Every US citizen has for decades had access to the measles vaccine.

Yes, and then charlatans like you convinced ignorant rubes that vaccines cause autism.

You are suggesting that the measles descended from the heavens onto this "religious" community?  It didn't come from anywhere else but spontaneously occurred in their midst?  They could not have come into contact with the millions of illegals who overran their state? 

There aren't "millions of illegals" overrunning any state.  You'll believe anything the orange criminal tells you, won't you?

   No kid I ever knew died of measles. No kid in my elementary school ever died of measles. Like I said, this used to be common. Right there with chicken pox and mumps. Maybe your, "ended up dead as a result", was in other countries?

False generalization.

There were 400-500 measles deaths in the US per year between 1953-1963.  Between 1912 and 1922, it was 6000 per year.
