  • I got the chicken pox at 16...it was awful, painful and had the potential for complications. Had I gotten it pre-8 yrs old or so it would not have been a big deal. Many people don't trust new vaccines, (or old ones for that matter).

  • Gina, you are naive. My father was a state trooper for 31 years. He repeatedly took the lieutenant's exam, and each time was passed over for a black man who had a lower test score. Of course affirmative action causes white men to be passed up over minorities, that is the point.
