Don't eat at Chili's on Monday

They are giving 10% of proceeds on that day to an anti-vaccinnation group.



It may be an honest mistake on the part of Chili's.

Someone at Chili’s has made a bad decision. In the spirit of Autism Awareness Month–you aware yet?–Chili’s Grill & Bar has evidently decided to support the National Autism Association (NAA) by giving this group 10% of their take at the table on Monday, April 7. Illustrating precisely why awareness of something is not the same as understanding it well, Chili’s has made a particularly poor choice of entity to support if helping children with autism reach their potential is their goal, as their flyer states. Why is NAA a poor choice? Because of this from their “causes of autism” page: While mainstream science discounts vaccinations as a cause, members of the National Autism Association feel vaccinations have triggered autism in a subset of children, and that an overly aggressive vaccination schedule coupled with toxic adjuvants in vaccines could affect individuals who have a family history of autoimmune disorders specifically. As with any medication, adverse events do happen, and vaccinations are no exception. Research to investigate, and reduce, adverse events in immunized individuals is currently nonexistent.
