Mike Adams: Laughing Stock
Mike Adams sends me lots of stupid shit. You know Mike. He's the self-appointed health ranger, a title as ridiculous as it is meaningless. But he sent me an especially fragrant doodie a few days ago that I wanted to share with you. It's about his comic strip, CounterThink (yeah, I don't think he has a sense of the exquisite irony), and the email begins:
Did you know about all the hilarious, outrageous cartoons on health topics available now at NaturalNews.com? They're called CounterThink Cartoons, and I designed each cartoon myself, then hired a professional illustrator to draw them. Each cartoon features a hilarious view on a controversial topic like vaccines, biofuels, Big Pharma and more."I design hilarious things. I'm hilarious." You know what's hilarious? You saying that you are hilarious.
Anyway, here's one of the cartoons that he linked to:
The soldiers besieging the Freedom from Health Movement are going about this all wrong. Catapult a baby with mumps in over the wall. Or measles. Or rubella. Or polio. Or smallpox. Or seasonal flu. You'll bring that castle to its knees. And to rub it in, catapult in some homeopathic preparations and megadoses of Vitamin C.

"Catapult a baby with mumps in over the wall. "
There was actually a historic tactic of catapulting the bodies of troops who died of disease into a besieged city or castle. I've entertained the idea of breaking up anti-vax rallies by bombarding them with dead rats. But, judging from the Chicago debacle, such drastic measures are unnecessary.
Hey David, it may be apocryphal, but the Mongols are said to have started this with the first of the Black Plague victims in their ranks.
As to the cartoon: Why are the attackers regular humans? Shouldn't they be strawmen?
@B8ovin: You win.
Also, damn you Mongrorians!

I'm all for freedom except when it endangers others--and this sort of profound stupidity does just that. These nuts are no better than the ones who want to use prayer rather than medicine; they're just using magic water and witch doctors rather than medicine. In the meantime people who know science-based medicine works are suffering because these idiots are refusing vaccines and destroying the herd immunity.
