A “right?” We all have a “right” to toxic chemicals in our drinking water?

What about those of us who feel we have a “right” to not be forced to drink it?  Is the Skagit PUD or the County Commissioners going to foot the bill for my bottled drinking water?

Somebody once said: “Your rights end where the point of my nose begins.” In this case your “right” to fluoridated water does not override my “right” to non-fluoridated water.

Melanie Bergstrom,

overwhelming weight of scientific evidence

Where?
Can you show me one peer review scientific study that has overwhelming evidence that shows no negative health effects to the young, weak, sick, old and to the healthy as well?

and not to leave out
Linda Jonasson,

Modern standards for water fluoridation have been adjusted to account for other sources of fluoride.

I would like to now how this can be done,
tell me how much have you been exposed to today .5, 1.5, 5, 10 mg?
How do these modern standards work to track 1 ppm/mg for an adult and less for a person with hypothyroidism or a person with one kidney or for a 3 year old that swallows some of his fluoridated tooth paste while brushing.
And this 1ppm/mg has not changed since the 40’s , you call this “Modern standards” ?
One dose does not fit all in the doctor’s office much less than in our water pipes.
On the subject of

Skagit County deserves this basic health protection

Top foods and Haggen now provide free pharmaceutical grade fluoride to those who choose to use it.
Kudos to Top foods and Haggen

The fluoride parrots have been let out again.  Still squawking about how they trust all those government reviews.  If you want to use poisen in your water, be my guest.  Don’t include me.
