Aggresion Vaccine

[MamatoPeach]

Did anyone else watch NBC this morning? There was a MD on talking about how we can predict which kids will turn into aggressive adults and we should vaccinate them against it. He said we need to devise an aggression vaccine.
Because a shot will solve all our problems.

I didn't see it, but that's really frightening. It sounds like social engineering at its finest. Don't waste your energy trying to find out what's making a kid aggressive, just give 'em a shot and everything will be fine. Ugh. As long as the pharmaceutical companies continue to have such a hold on the public, we will continue to believe there is a drug to fix everything.

That is funny since I have read that vaccination may be linked to agressive behavior. There is one doctor who has written about this and for the life of me I can't remeber his name. If anyone knows jump in please, but I have read some of his stuff.

So lets say for arguement's sake there is a link....vaccination = increased risk of aggressive behavior = need a vaccine for agressive behavior.

Of course there should be an aggression vaccine right along with a vaccine for people who eat too many jelly beans at easter and a vaccine for impatience This has got to be the craziest thing I have heard all day but I did a good laugh.

Kind of like chickenpox vaccine = increased risk for shingles = need a vaccine for shingles, only even dumber.

isn't there some link between mood drugs like prozac and people who flip out and start shooting everyone?

talk about not getting to the root of the problem!

They need a vaccine against stupidity.

This has got to be the dumbest idea I've heard of (aggression vaccine).

Let's not forget a vaccine for shyness, and one for depression. What about a vaccine for cowardice or anxiety.

Haven't seen it, but it doesn't sound like I want to. There are so many flaws in that logic I don't even care to seriously comment.
