Fluoride is not effective in drinking water, but has benefits topically

How is this trolling? I feel like the safety of municipal water is a valid concern. Maybe less so for those who are fortunate enough to be able to afford an alternative to tap water, but there are many who are not

Look at the teeth of the British people, they don't have fluoride in their water.

Why treat the water at all? Our ancestors drank out of creeks, if it was good enough for them, it should be good enough for us. It will help solve the over population and social security problem as well.
Maybe you should move to Texas or Nevada or someplace else where the IQs are low enough to take you seriously.
I bet Cliven Bundy and Ted Cruz agrees with you.

People, you need to do your research on this. I can't run back and forth providing links for lazy people.
Fluoride is poison. If you have a problem with " paranoid conspiracy theories " fine. At least know its very much to blame for this nations obesity problem.
Yes, fluoride slows the metabolism...
A prominent advocate for polluting the water system in Australia was absolutely floored and shocked when confronted with all the evidence of the impact this poison has on our brains and bodies. He took a complete 270 turn on his stance.
The bottled water with added fluoride for children who actually still have their baby teeth? Its in every grocery store WTF?
Key component in Prozac. Was a byproduct of industry that they used to have to pay to properly dispose of, it was so toxic. They found one slight use for it and ran on it so as to profit rather than pay to get ride of.
Used in high doses in Nazi prison camps to "calm" the prisoners...
Do you know what your pineal gland is? Your third eye? - Your seat of soul and consciousness? Calcifies it, corrodes it.

And you claim that fluoride is to blame for obesity? Really? It's not McDonald's, sedentary lifestyles or poor diets, but fluoride...wow.
I have heard it all. Tell you what, the only people that will agree with you, at least in the "poison" part of your spiel are the same mongos who believe in the Illuminati and NWO...you know, those people.

Floride Truthers are some of the original truthers.
Communist conspiracy theory (1940s-1960s)
Flier issued in May 1955 by the Keep America Committee, alleging a conspiracy theory that water fluoridation is a communist plot.
Water fluoridation has frequently been the subject of conspiracy theories. During the "Red Scare" in the United States during the late 1940s and 1950s, and to a lesser extent in the 1960s, activists on the far right of American politics routinely asserted that fluoridation was part of a far-reaching plot to impose a socialist or communist regime. They also opposed other public health programs, notably mass vaccination and mental health services.[56] Their views were influenced by opposition to a number of major social and political changes that had happened in recent years: the growth of internationalism, particularly the UN and its programs; the introduction of social welfare provisions, particularly the various programs established by the New Deal; and government efforts to reduce perceived inequalities in the social structure of the United States.[57]
Some took the view that fluoridation was only the first stage of a plan to control the American people. Fluoridation, it was claimed, was merely a stepping-stone on the way to implementing more ambitious programs. Others asserted the existence of a plot by communists and the United Nations to "deplete the brainpower and sap the strength of a generation of American children". Dr. Charles Bett, a prominent anti-fluoridationist, charged that fluoridation was "better than using the atom bomb because the atom bomb has to be made, has to be transported to the place it is to be set off while poisonous fluorine has been placed right beside the water supplies by the Americans themselves ready to be dumped into the water mains whenever a Communist desires!" Similarly, a right-wing newsletter, the American Capsule News, claimed that "the Soviet General Staff is very happy about it. Anytime they get ready to strike, and their 5th column takes over, there are tons and tons of this poison "standing by" municipal and military water systems ready to be poured in within 15 minutes."[9]
This controversy had a direct impact on local program during the 1950s and 1960s, where referendums on introducing fluoridation were defeated in over a thousand Florida communities. It was not until as late as the 1990s that fluoridated water was consumed by the majority of the population of the United States.[56]
The communist conspiracy argument declined in influence by the mid-1960s, becoming associated in the public mind with irrational fear and paranoia. It was portrayed in Stanley Kubrick's 1964 film Dr. Strangelove, in which the character General Jack D. Ripper initiates a nuclear war in the hope of thwarting a communist plot to "sap and impurify" the "precious bodily fluids" of the American people with fluoridated water. Another satire appeared in the 1967 movie In Like Flint, in which a character's fear of fluoridation is used to indicate that he is insane.
Some anti-fluoridationists claimed that the conspiracy theories were damaging their goals; Dr. Frederick Exner, an anti-fluoridation campaigner in the early 1960s, told a conference: "most people are not prepared to believe that fluoridation is a communist plot, and if you say it is, you are successfully ridiculed by the promoters. It is being done, effectively, every day ... some of the people on our side are the fluoridators' 'fifth column'."[9]
In 1987, Ian E. Stephens authored a self-published booklet, an extract of which was published in the Australian new age publication Nexus Magazine in 1995. In it he claimed he was told by "Charles Elliot Perkins" that: "Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of fluoride will in time reduce an individual's power to resist domination by slowly poisoning and narcotising a certain area of the brain and will thus make him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him ... Both the Germans and the Russians added sodium fluoride to the drinking water of prisoners of war to make them stupid and docile." These statements have been dismissed by reputable Holocaust historians as untrue, but they are regularly repeated to the present day in conspiracy publications and websites.[58]
In 2004, on the U.S. television program Democracy Now, investigative journalist and author of the book The Fluoride Deception, Christopher Bryson claimed that, “the post-war campaign to fluoridate drinking water was less a public health innovation than a public relations ploy sponsored by industrial users of fluoride—including the government’s nuclear weapons program.”[59]
