Anti-vax protesters could protest many other things, too

Re Anti-vaxxers protest at police HQ, Sept. 3

To those protesting at outdoor political meetings, outside politicians’ homes and at hospitals, why are you not protesting long-standing, real restrictions on personal freedom?

The law says we must have a driver’s licence before we can drive a car, that we must use a seat-belt when driving and obey speed limit laws. I say let’s protest against these unfair interferences with our freedom.

Think of all the other restrictions we suffer such as not being able to buy liquor under the age of 19, having to go to school until a certain age, or having to undergo years of schooling to practise as a doctor or dentist.

Why not gather to shout outside Ministry of Transport offices, police stations, city halls? Wesley Turner, St. Catharines, Ont.
