Sarzy,

Umm... sorry for not making the tongue-in-cheek joke/reference obvious? http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/you-have-died-of-dysentery

This ad is not representative of Oregon. No one died of dysentery!

Waiting until marriage for sex/romance might have made some sense when girls would be married off by 15. (And often dead by 30 from dysentery....) But the world has moved on.

IKR! Far better to believe one thing someone dying of dysentery thought up in a fever dream and defend it to the death.

I hope you're not as uncritical when looking for libertarian literature as you are when looking for health information. That page is written by a HuffPo grade misinformer. Unpasteurized milk has no nutritional benefits over pasteurized milk, no matter how much some California hippies bleat about "natural".

Of course, I'm not here to judge those who choose to drink raw milk for some reason. I come after all from a country where half-rotten fish is considered haute cuisine (Although properly made rakfisk has no infectuous risks. And is delicious! And is a great excuse to drink lots of aquavit! Errm, I digress.). If you absolutely want some dysentery with your milk, that's your problem. I just want to warn people that we pasteurize milk for a very good reason.

On a larger scale though, I find it alarming that Ron Paul has to pay lip service to the health and nutrition wackos to garner votes. What will be next? The same type of west coast hippies also campaign actively against childhood vaccination. Will he, if he is elected president, abandon childhood vaccination programs in the name of freedom, when we know for a fact that the disappearance of group immunity in some areas of California has resulted in deadly outbreaks of measles and whooping cough?

Having a food and drugs administration that makes sure foodstuffs on sale do not cause serious infectuous diseases is hardly impinging on anyone's freedom.

It does if it keeps those things from being offered or used. I'm curious what you think freedom means, because I hear a lot of people make arguments similar to the one you just made. How is restricting people's ability to ingest raw milk - which some claim is healthier than pasteurized milk - a testament to freedom?

You have died of dysentery.

This planet would be one hell of a lot more fun of religious zealots stopped blowing eachother up over claims to some piece of shit desert in the middle of nowhere.
Horowitz is a well known hardcore piece of shit who has backed wholesale slaughter and land grabs for years and years. This girl is an idiot. Both of them should just kill eachother.

"if relgious zealots stopped blowing each other up . . . "
"Both of them should just kill each other."
Well? Which way do you want it?


I should've been more clear.

The zealots should kill eachother, not the general populations who are just trying to go about their days and feed their kids and work their shitty jobs and not die of dysentery.

There is no such thing as evolution. God created AIDS, cancer, Tay-Sachs Disease, meningitis, influenza, bubonic plague, malaria, dysentery, tornados, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and droughts. And he did it to FUCK WITH YOU. Praise be upon him.

Is it wrong to think that I'm better than everyone else because I revel in the delectable goodness that is encompassed in the sublime sensation of consuming Kashi during brunch in the sun room? You're just jealous, with your sweat-stained collar and five o'clock shadow at midday while you meander into Taco Bell for the latest in dysentery-inducing bile wrapped in a dampened tortilla. Jealous, I say!

you have died of dysentery.

Fantastic. Give bacteria direct access to your colon without the protection of your stomach acid. Dysentery here we come!

"You have died of dysentery"

I died of dysentery...

Not my submission, but I'm sure it refers to how this scene came about:
Harrison Ford had drank some bad water in whatever exotic location they shot this scene in, and had dysentery, diarrhea, and could barely stand up.
There was a huge fight scene choreographed between Indy and the swordsman, when Ford, clearly not up to it, suggested "why doesn't Indy just shoot the guy?"
And movie history was made.
