It's already in toothpaste....and probably shouldn't be, definitely shouldn't be in our drinking water.

Fluoride crosses the placenta and enters the fetal brain. Fluoride is known to be biologically toxic, and the fetus is exposed from the moment of conception. It also bioaccumulates in the bone with a half-life estimated at 20 years. How is it possible that this is allowed?

The chemical compounds that are added to “fluoridate” the drinking water, eg hydrofluorocilicic acid, are toxic

Dentists have no training in fluoride’s effects to the human body which doesnt reside in the mouth. All they have are talking points not backed by science to protect organized dentistry’s political viability

Neither my neighbors nor my elected officials have any right using my tax dollars to dose me through my water with a substance for which I have a medical reason to avoid, forcing me to have to buy water for drinking, cooking, and even brushing my teeth!

Fluoride is a medicine. Personally I don’t want the government putting medicine in my drinking water. There are a number of studies which show the adverse effects of fluoride. The slogan, “when in doubt keep it out”. makes perfect sense to me.

Mass medicated in crude and unprofessional. Mass medication is not the way a professional delivers a health or dental care product to his/her patients. How can it be OK for a city or a state to deliver a substance to its entire population; fluoridation is, indeed, public health malpractice.

We already have a military presence in Greenland. Denmark is a NATO ally. Trump should NOT be threatening the European balance or the time-tested established order. This has ramifications far beyond Trump's ego.

US should not invade other countries. Never Greenland or Venezuela. This is Trump enriching himself. Dangerous and destroying US reputation on human rights.

We have existing agreements with Greenland and Denmark regarding military bases. We should expand on that, rather than threaten to take the entire country by force 'if necessary'
