SDCC_190720_004.JPG: Anti-vaccine folks. I originally thought they were part of the some PR stunt -- why else would the folks wear the "V for Vendetta" masks to disguise themselves.
It was interesting to read that much of the money from the anti-vaccine movement comes from business folk who are promoting "alternative cures" -- folks who definitely have a horse in the race. I presume the "V" guys were hired by that group which was one of the reasons they were happy to wear masks.
Vaccines known to cause seizures - Encephalitis, autoimmunity
U.S. law classifies vaccines as unavoidably unsafe
Vaccine makers are exempt from liability

SDCC_190720_103.JPG: Jesus is coming on your dad's back
Not being religious, I had no idea what this sign was about. My first thought was that it had something to do with two guys in bed and one ejaculating on top of the other. Maybe I read it wrong though.
