Thousands wait for swine flu shots in San Rafael

[keep it going]

A little Mexican boy goes into the kitchen where his mom is baking. He puts his hand in the flour and wipes it all over his face. He says, "Mom, look - I'm a white boy!" His mom slaps him in the face and says, "Go show your father." He goes to his dad in the living room and says, "Look Dad, I'm a white boy." His dad slaps him hard in the face and says, "Go show your grandmother." The boy goes into his grandmother's room and say, "Mira, Abuelita, I'm a white boy." His grandmother slaps him in the face and sends him back to his mother. His mother says, "See, did you learn anything from that?" To which the boy replies, "Sure did! I have only been white for five minutes and I already hate you Mexicans!"

It seems that the death panels have already arrived. No swine flu shots were available to anyone over 64. This despite the fact that the last swine flu fatality statistic that I read in th Marin IJ, had 50% of the Marin deaths being seniors in their 70s.

^Hi Matt!

[summerTIME]

I'm not so sure this didn't originate in the U.S. We have just a few feed lots and chicken farms. I'm pretty sure I got it 2 or 3 months before it made the news, because I've been exposed to lots of people who had it all summer, and I haven't gotten sick. I had a sudden fever, the thing went away after a couple days and returned with a vengeance. I was too tired to go to the doctor. I've been exposed to about 20 people since who had H1N1, and I haven't been sick.

I got it from someone who was in Southern California. Not Mexico. That's just our racist government finding a way to IMPLY that it came from those dark-skinned people down South. We gringos probably incubated it ourselves by having recreational-chemical-induced weakened immune systems. I'm so bored of everything being blamed on the Mexicans. Put your bong away.

I am constantly impressed at the tenacity of ignorance and hate. Even in Marin County, it continues to survive and thrive. And not just one strain!! These comments show the ignorant racist haters as well as the ignorant, anti-scientific, anti-intellectual, anti-vax haters.

Keep shouting - all of you. If you shout loud enough and long enough, nothing will get accomplished and you can blame the results on your enemy. When it all goes to sh1t, you can die honestly believing it wasn't your fault.

And the slide of the US towards third-world status continues.

Hey floop ... there were translators for Chinese and Vietnamese speakers also. And don't forget, people were speaking Spanish in Califoria LONG before English speakers arrived. Regardless of their status, it makes more sense for people to immunize their children now, rather than having them show up at an emergency room in a few weeks with a fever of 104?

People began speaking Spanish long ago because they got their butts kicked by Spain and were forced to. Longer ago it was Aztec or Miwok Spanish it not a native language .Why do they insist on speaking the language of their conquerers?

Racist against a virus?
Let's not forget to toss-in a few "Anti's" & "Haters"...

Bad dog, no Scooby-snack.

Yes, the end is coming. Luckily for you pet owners there is a atheist pet sitting service, so when the Rapture comes you can be confident your pets are being cared for. I think they will also pick up your cloths and look after your belongings.

As much as it pisses me off to see my tax dollars being spent to vaccinate an illegal immigrant, the reality is, they are here. So if they are here, vaccinate them so that their kids don't go to school sick and get everybody else sick. Yeah, it really ticks me off to be burning this money for a group of people who should not be here to begin with... but unless they do something about getting them deported, to not give them this vaccine would not be in anybodies best interest. Just as we don't want rabid dogs on the streets while our pets get their shots, we don't want swine flu carrying illegals amongst us.
