Don't get me wrong, I love the x-files but since the rise of the internet...



Most of that is true-but the anti vaccination movement? Bogus. I have autism, don't recall having a vaccination, and us on the spectrum have a near eidetic memory.

I too have Autism, specifically Higher Functioning Autism, aka Asperger's. And I was vaccinated growing up.Mind you I don't think vaccines did it because I've been who I am as long as I can remember and I also have a great memory.But in saying that I have over the years developed physical problems that I do wonder if the vaccines and medicines I have taken over the years are at the root.Can the impacts of any drug only developed and tested over a few years really be seen in a short span of time, or could they take a generation or more before the results start appearing?I don't think autism is a disability hate it is often viewed as one, I don't think anything causes it except evolution and possible the occasional error in genetic coding.For me it's just a label that people need so they can say "oh so you think differently to me" but then again it is a spectrum and for some it can be debilitating to have depending on how pronounced it is in the individual.Thing is regardless of what anyone thinks, every drug has side effects. It's just whether or not you're the unlucky 1 in 3000 who gets them.This is the problem, those who don't experience take the mentality of "It never happened to me so it must not happen to anyone." despite evidence to the contrary.But quite often humans only want to see what they want to see, not what actually is.
