Jim Carrey went on a twitter rant over California’s state-wide vaccination policy. The actor believes that vaccines poison children, but claims he is not anti-vaccine. John Iadarola and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.
“Jim Carrey launched into an anti-vaccination rant on Twitter Tuesday after California Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill requiring all public school children in the state to be vaccinated starting in 2016. In a series of tweets, the actor accused the Centers for Disease Control of being “corrupt” and painted Brown as a “corporate fascist that must be stopped.”
“California Gov says yes to poisoning more children with mercury and aluminum in manditory [sic] vaccines,” Carrey tweeted. “They say mercury in fish is dangerous but forcing all of our children to be injected with mercury in Thimerosol is no risk. Make sense?”
The strict bill also removes vaccination exemptions based on religious beliefs, The Hollywood Reporter writes. “I am not anti-vaccine. I am anti-Thimerosal, anti-mercury. They have taken some of the mercury-laden Thimerosal out of vaccines. NOT ALL,” Carrey tweeted. “The CDC can’t solve a problem they helped start. It’s too risky to admit they have been wrong about mercury/Thimerasol. They are corrupt.” Carrey ended his rant by telling parents to check out the documentary Trace Amounts.”

Oh Jim WHY???
I like the way this girl talks.
yes but you evidently do not … unfortunately. .
This woman looks like a clown. I'm sure she is being vaccinated every night by many guys !!!
They used to put Mercury in vaccines, but even then it was non lethal.
Your twisted logic is crazy….even if you do the smallest research you will see that your unsupported views are hog wash …one fine example is Dr sherrie Tenpenny .. The link between autism and vaccines is admitted by the us govt by the way they are compensating parents for what has been done to their children
shut up stupid bitch
stop talking about things you don't know
Ignorant !
TYT who are your specific Pharma sponsors? Who do you meet with out of public view? He/they are members of which organizations?
TyT fights for the science of Vaccines but not GMOs? STAY OFF THE TOPIC OF SCIENCE!
I Vax, for the greater public health, an will always. However Vaccinations are not made by a benevolent god incapable of hurting people they are made by a business, and businesses never re-examine a profitable policy unless forced to do so by the public. Remember this product has a crucial caveat ( it is injected directly into my fucking bloodstream, making permanent biological changes). If you ask any business ANY business "will this product or practice affect me or my property in a negative way," and if the answer to that question affects even one quarters profits, that business will most assuredly answer "no." Question everything for less vulnerability.
Yay Jim Carrey, I agree with him 100%! Plus he is the best actor ever!
You guys REALLY suck!! Your stupid and EVIL. Do your research before telling your viewers that Jim Carrey is "wrong". Like you know ANYTHING! You KNOW what you have been told to say. SHAME ON YOU! I'll see you both in HELL!
good on you carrey, thank you!!
You have to love all the people that want freedom to "Shut the Fuck up!". Why do you people want to live in America? I don't understand? Parts of China are beautiful you'd love it there.
Vaccines spread illnesses. If people understood about plain, CHEAP non-Rx garlic, epidemics would truly end. Did you people know these bastards and bitches would deny an Ebola patient the chance to use garlic? I expect ridicule from EVERY Pharma shareholder! Meantime, I have NO income agenda!
OK Turks show us your financial statement! You got payoffs from which Pharma sources? God damn UGLY bitch! Ha ha, look at the Mediterranean map and all those Greek controlled islands within pissing distance of the Turkish coast! Cenk is also UGLY, his face looks like God damn hamburger meat.
I agree with Jim Carrey.
93% after the 1st shot and 97% after the 2nd shot. Where do these weirdos get their info? They open their mouths and out comes propaganda. Wow! And, they don't even realize how stupid they sound. The proof is in the pudding? There is no proof. There have been little or no long term studies. Ugh! All of my siblings and myself have suffered auto immune issues for decades, from the oral polio vaccine. I myself contracted polio from the vaccine. Do these two ignorant morons really think that those of us who are easily twice their age and know better, are going to listen to their driveling rant? I don't think so. I have little tolerance for STUPID.
Good food and hygiene is the best medicine.
If your sick and are sent to school, then shame on the parents, there's such a thing called stay at home and plenty of rest allowing your bodies immune system to kill off the virus with white blood cell and a fever.
When you both have kids, you will know what the feeling is like to have a stranger tell you what they will be doing to your child. . But yet again, you probably wont be able to have any kids because you are probably sterile just like thousands of people..
I'm sorry these two people are idiots. The point of this is that it is our right to do what we want with our children. Land of the free??? Slowly dwindling away, so sad to see these two people not open their eyes and see what is going on..

Going to point out a quick fact. Jim Carrey is a non- religious person. And he is such an idiot when it comes to medical science. So you can't always blame the Christians
