We should be able to require that all PEOPLE be vaccinated. That our country refuses to do this, is why so many people are dying. There is no “freedom” to endanger other people and never was.

We should, but unfortunately the FBI and DOJ have a policy of not labeling domestic actors as terrorists.

If the Left was 1/10 as violent as the Right portrays us to be, the Right wouldn’t stand a chance.

Thank you for reminding me that I’ve never watched a Rambo movie and never will.

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

It fucking annoys me that we ALLOW people to not be vaccinated. In a society, you should not have the right to endanger other people.

Funny you mentioned “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon”, I just mentioned that song upthread. That song is all kinds of icky.

You just reminded me that Neil Diamond had that song “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon”. That one was also creepy.

This is sadly true, I’m a classic rock fan and I’m currently having a reckoning with Led Zeppelin, who are one of my favorite bands. I’ve come to the conclusion that I can’t look down on people for listening to R. Kelly or watching the Cosby Show as long as I listen to Zeppelin, because they did the same shit.

Anyone who joins the police thinking they’re going to change the system from the inside is fucking stupid. You CAN’T change the system from the inside. It is resistant to all change. The Wire taught us this.

This is why I don’t buy the idea of “good cops”. EVERY cop has CHOSEN to work as part of a racist system, therefore they are all culpable.

Kill yourself.

I’m white and I couldn’t be cheering the decline harder. The browning of America has been a long time coming.

I think the hospitals should refuse to treat unvaccinated people, how’s that.

I always thought people who listen to those scanners are nosy AF. My grandmother used to listen to one (I’m white) and it always bothered me. At the very least, it’s invading people’s privacy.

I wasn’t aware of that case, thanks for digging that up. I have long held that the government should be able to force you to get vaccinated. I think it should be the federal government though, not the states, and the penalty for not getting vaccinated should not be a $5 fine as it was in that case, but jail time +…

Furthermore, if these people don’t want to get vaccinated at all then that’s entirely their prerogative

To be fair, I actually believe that public nudity should be legal, provided that you a) don’t brandish your junk at anyone, and b) bring a towel if you’re going to sit on anything. Otherwise, there is nothing inherently offensive about the human body. There IS something wrong with not being vaccinated, and people…

If you are “all for people getting vaccinated”, then you need to support vaccine mandates. Vaccines only work if everyone gets them. You are an anti-vaxxer.

We need a NATIONAL vaccine mandate. Every American who does not have a legitimate MEDICAL exemption (fuck your “personal belief” exemptions, those are exactly the problem) should be required to get vaccinated, or be jailed and forcibly vaccinated. Stop whining about your rights. People are DYING HERE.
