BIG BROTHER

I am "pro choice."...........Yet my choice would be life. I fully believe it is a women's choice to do what she wants to do with her body, and her choice should be between her and her maker and not her and government. So now I am at a quander, ever hear of Gardasil a drug developed to prevent HPV. In the state of Texas it is mandatory for girls 11 and 12 to have the Gardasil Vaccine. Yes, I am sure Gardasil is a great drug and does what is supposed to do, yet if I do not want to get the drug or if I do not want my daughter (hypothetically I do not have a daughter) to receive the drug I should have the choice to do so.....

So now I am going to get on my soap box about drug companies. Here is a perfect example of why I have a problem with drug companies. They have there own lobbyist to get their drugs to be MANDI TORY IN STATES..........so Texas I ask you how do you like those Merck dollars? I am sure Merck does a good job at giving Texas what they need oh and I am sure a little of what they want.

Please read this is the article about Texas and maditory vaccine:

it is also mandatory for kids to get vaccinated for small pox. There are some things that need to be mandatory!!!! HPV prevention (although I have no clue what it is) probably needs to be prevented!! HPV = Highly poisonous vaginas should be prevented

If you're pro-choice that means you aren't catholic. If you aren't catholic, you should give the pope his blessed nail clippers back.

the vaccine saves lives and prevents cervical cancer. there is no reason not to give it unless you want your daughter to have a higher risk of getting cervical cancer. there are better ways to support your religious views than to deny your daughter this potentially life saving intervention
