The thing is they sometimes torture the poor dogs before they kill them, due to the belief that the adrenaline will make them taste better (it doesn't). Even with cows and chickens, I would want them to be treated humanely.

I didn't say GMOs are harmful, only that GMOs are different than selective breeding.

While that's technically correct, it's not what people mean when they say GMO. It's like, if someone said "don't eat those cherries someone sprayed chemicals on them" you wouldn't respond by saying "everything is a chemical! The cherries are fine!" You implicitly understand they mean harmful chemicals. Similarly, when someone says GMO they refer only to organisms that have been genetically engineered, which is different from selective breeding.

Roses are red,
Elastigirl is hot,
"Coincidence? I think NOT!"

My guess is that it's a beauty competition that excludes the face, so they cover it up so the judges aren't influenced.

Roses are red,
My life is a mess,
"I dunno, something amazing I guess!"

Roses are red,
I know what I said,
"Do you remember Thunderhead?"

Roses are red,
I like to eat grapes,
Quoth Edna Mode,
"No capes!"

There is a charity called LiNK (Liberty in North Korea) that helps refugees escape. It's not as dramatic as going to war, but every little bit helps.

Thanks for all the info guys! I'll look into this. Once again, I'm not an anti-vaxxer, just want to be discerning.

I had heard it from my mom who heard it from my family pediatrician that it had mercury. Perhaps I am mistaken.

Mostly I'm concerned about mercury and aluminum, heavy metals that stay in the body for years. You get vaccines, you eat tuna, you drink bad tap water, and the heavy metals build up. It's not any one thing but several toxins you ingest throughout your life. I'd rather get mercury poisoning than polio, but I'd rather have neither. It's my old pediatrician who suggested a spaced out schedule. There's a safer way to do these things.
