A man from an ultra orthodox community in Brooklyn traveled to Michigan without knowing he was infected with measles infected at least 39 people

Sounds like Michigan has the problem, not the Orthodox.  Why is this a problem?  Did any vaccinated person in Michigan, or New York for that matter, contract measles?

You either get vaccinated, or you don't.  Both choices carry risks.  Why not leave it up to each individual to decide which set of risks to accept instead of empowering the state to take away our choice?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."
