    My brother had to be convinced to get the vaccine.

    He’s legitimately removed (I’m trying to say “re-tar-ded”, but apparently it automatically saying “removed.” Seriously? We’re not allowed to say “re-tar-ded”, a completely accurate medical term?) and had to go to a special school because of it.

    I think a lot of conservatives fall into this camp, but don’t realize it because of how poor social programs are in red states.
