I know everyone balked at the Liberals bill to "police" the internet, but the more of this garbage continues, the more I think they may be on to something. This trash is incredibly harmful to society, and ends up costing us tax dollars to care for people who are swindle by the misinformation and end up in the hospitals. Time to de-platform these ####ers.
That page is a trainwreck, pun intended. I particularly like when he posted an abstract with no accompanying peer-reviewed paper that had a notice of concern on it from the journal itself. Radically stupid, but they just lap it up as proof that vaccinating children is akin to child sacrifice.

Meanwhile he's been spotted getting vaccinated so he can tour Canada with the likes of Chris Sky and the Pawlowskis, spreading misinformation on other people's dime.

As for his sentence, he and the Pawloskis successfully appealed the 'compelled speech' portion, which was silly and useless to begin with. They all deserved a jail stint, especially Scott as he's deathly afraid of it after his weekend stay in the Spring.
