Yet you are fine with asking for their papers if they appear to be Mexican.
Blame the VAXers, they have put us all at risk!

Where did you get THAT notion?
Do you support harsh immigration enforcement, building the wall, ICE raids, and immigration check-points 100 miles away from the border?
I support "total 100% suppression of illegal immigration across our borders"... regardless.... even if it means "arrest/shoot violators on sight". Look.. if you don't have secure borders, you don't have a country. DUH!
For many years we've had a policy of legal foreign immigration, which seems reasonable... but that's all been turned on its head for political objectives. (Geez... it's become such that every ignorant, no job skill, disease-riddled migrant is welcomed into America... to suck tit on the American taxpayer.... so long as they are expected to vote Democrat... whether legally or illegally. WTF is up with that?)

Or you could just leave the country.
WTF has that got to do with anything. If you don't want to vaccinate your kids then leave them at home and home school them.
Besides I was just supporting what WildChild said that something has to be done.
Stay on topic.
If you don't want your kids around unvaccinated kids YOU leave them at home and home school them. Forced medical procedures on people to make you feel safe isn't the answer. Besides, if you're vaccinated, why are you worried if someone else isn't? Aren't you safe? Maybe you don't trust vaccines as much as you thought.
I think you misread what wildchild wrote.
One dose of the MMR vaccine provides 93 percent protection against the virus, while two doses provide 97 percent protection.
This means that if 1,000 people who received both doses are exposed to the virus, about 30 of them will catch the disease.
If another 50 unvaccinated people are exposed, approximately 45 of them will contract the disease, bringing the total outbreak count to about 75. So while 90 percent of the unvaccinated population contracted the disease just 3 percent of the vaccinated population are infected.
While these odds may seem daunting, without the vaccine, millions of people would contract the measles every year and there would be many more hospitalizations and deaths.
“Measles is not a mild illness — it is a serious condition that can cause complications such as pneumonia and encephalitis [brain swelling], resulting in the potential for long-term disability and even death,” Dr. Edward Chapnick, the director of infectious diseases at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY, told Healthline.
Despite the fact that the measles is so contagious, the virus can be prevented and controlled via vaccination, he added.
For one, even if you do contract the measles after being vaccinated, your symptoms will be milder and they will clear up much quicker.
Secondly, fully vaccinated people are much less likely to spread the disease to others, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
It is just a shot, not a medical procedure......your opinion does not win against science/fact.
