Well to add my humble two cents. As far as I know it, fluoride has been added to water for a very long time and also toothpaste. Now if these studies can prove that people got sick or died because of the fluoride, I am all ears. If they going to tell me that a certain percentage could be lethal, well that proves nothing because as the old saying goes, "Too much of a good thing can be bad" or words to that effect. I have never heard of anyone getting sick because of fluoride so it can't be that dangerous is it?

Fluoridation Water Fluoridated Kills Fluoride
After reading for just a short while I am convinced this is not a good thing, and definitely not worth the risk. I hope this link helps Source 6 .
One of the strongest arguments I see here is that it is a forced medication. Add on top of that all the red flags . . .

Fluoride Kills - Fluoridated Water - Fluoridation Health & Special Psychology
I am glad you provided a link but as I said, it still doesn't prove anything. All those negative things they listed and only in Birth Defects and Perinatal Deaths is some kind of statistics shown. I mean if one or even ten persons out of a million people get Osteoarthritis because of fluoride, then honestly that is no reason to raise a flag is it? It is still worth mentioning though but to call a ban on it? Not so sure about that.
N.B. This is from wikipedia
QUOTE Fluoride-containing compounds are used in topical and systemic fluoride therapy for preventing tooth decay. They are used for water fluoridation and in many products associated with oral hygiene. Originally, sodium fluoride was used to fluoridate water; however, hexafluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6) and its salt sodium hexafluorosilicate (Na2SiF6) are more commonly used additives, especially in the United States. The fluoridation of water is known to prevent tooth decay and is considered by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as "one of 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century". In some countries where large, centralized water systems are uncommon, fluoride is delivered to the populace by fluoridating table salt.

Comments: I wouldn't use Wikipedia as a reference cause it just random people putting their version of whatever but in any case why would you be wanting to swallow a chemical everyday? Over time you get a headache one day and you wonder why. Not all proof is written not all solutions readily apparent.
Fluoridation Water Fluoridated Kills Fluoride
Ok with all due respect, I don't think your argument is valid. Swallowing a chemical everyday? Guess what is in your food and drinks and I am not talking only about the obvious foods with preservatives but practically all the food we eat has chemicals in it. It doesn't make it right but to use the argument that you don't want fluoride in your water because it's a chemical is not very convincing to me.
Rather off topic, but...
Wikipedia has also been valuable for accurate information. Of course we must always double check your information with other sources and so forth but Wikipedia has been on target for me. The way they also work is that they verify what is put there. If the information is debatable or unsure they put in the citation required tag on it to let people know that the information can be proven wrong.

Add to all that the US. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also calls it one of 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century. We would hope they would know what they are saying right?

Fluoride Kills - Fluoridated Water - Fluoridation
The point I haven't heard anyone disclaim yet is the fact that it is a forced medication. The only reason it is put in the water is to prevent tooth decay. However there is no solid evidence that is even does that. Whoever is putting this fluoride in the water is just putting it in there with no real benefit to the public. Also the public has no choice in the matter. It is just automatically added into the water without their consent. For something as essential as water I don't see why the added chemical. It is just as good for you, if not better, without the fluoride.

I disagree with you that there is no solid evidence that it helps in tooth decay...
QUOTE The Benefits of Fluoride
From the Office of the Surgeon General,
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
May 2000
Community water fluoridation is an effective, safe, and inexpensive way to prevent tooth decay. This method of fluoride delivery benefits Americans of all ages and socioeconomic status.
Brushing twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste is an easy way to prevent tooth decay.
Fluoridation, which was started in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1945, has been used successfully in the United States for more than 50 years. It benefits both children and adults.
Fluoride works by stopping or even reversing the decay process. It keeps tooth enamel strong and solid.
Community water fluoridation is considered one of 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century.
Of the 50 largest cities in the United States, 42 have community water fluoridation (and 2 cities have natural fluoride levels that are optimal). Fluoridation reaches 69 percent of the population on public water supplies-more than 184 million people.
The annual cost of fluoridation is approximately $0.50 in communities of ≥ 20,000 to approximately $3.00 per person in communities ≤ 5,000 (in 1995 dollars) for all but the smallest water systems. Even so, 100 million Americans do not have access to fluoridated water.
Communities with fluoridated drinking water in the United States, Australia, Britain, Canada, Ireland, and New Zealand show striking reductions in tooth decay-those with fluoridated drinking systems have 15-40 percent less tooth decay.
Nearly all tooth decay can be prevented when fluoridation is combined with dental sealants and other fluoride products, such as toothpaste.
Fluoride dietary supplements can provide fluoride to those who do not have adequate levels in their drinking water. They are available as tablets, drops, or lozenges.
Over-the-counter fluoride dental products such as toothpastes and mouth rinses are effective in preventing decay.
Products with high concentrations of fluoride that are applied in the dental office or prescribed for home use offer additional protection for those at increased risk of tooth decay.
Because older Americans are now keeping their teeth longer, fluoride will continue to be important for preventing tooth decay in this age group. Older Americans are especially susceptible to tooth decay because of exposed root surfaces and mouth dryness that may result from many medications.
