This is your government at work.

Either comply or get the hell out. Do not need people who think their rights are more important than someone’s life.

How is a covid positive, "vaccinated" person's rights any more important than an un-"vaccinated" covid negative person?

If one group is expected to provide a covid negative test then all should have to provide a covid negative test.

But my stance is all of this is bullshite.

"@schwartzy.

Your statement is not accurate. While the vaccines do not prevent spread, they significantly reduce the likelihood that one who contracts COVID ends up severely ill, in a hospital, or dead. Those results are not questionable. Go check out state health department numbers from any state, including Louisiana. The vaccine is not a cure-all for COVID but it certainly leads to better health outcomes.

All politics aside, this is a health issue. We have a genuine health crisis to manage. To decrease pressure on hospitals and clinical staff, which should be the only goal for all of the restrictions, everyone (vaxed or not) should wear a mask if they are within 6 feet of others for more than 15 minutes, practice social distancing, wash hands frequently, and limit exposure with those known or suspected to have COVID.

If you and others want to debate the rights of the government to impose restrictions, go ahead. All I want you and others to realize is that there is clinical data available which can be used to improve the situation."

100% THIS!

Why don't the "vaccinated" have to show a covid negative test. If they can still spread the virus then they must also show that they are covid negative.

My favorite thing is when someone makes up a stat like this.

Because it has never been about safety...just like masks aren't about safety because they don't even work...and Dems know it

Ummm... how did they get the virus from the shot? please explain

---

I didn't mean to say they got the virus from the shot but that they got sick from the shot



This is from texts that were sent to a group in June. It is from a friend who was vaccinated in April and was told that he has Covid.

These are snippets of the texts. He was talking about other stuff - selling his house and moving and how the virus affected him. These are only the comments about his Covid and vaccination. The last 2 comments were answering questions from other group members

"I found out today that I have COVID so I am out for a while

Yeah, I had all the symptoms. I got vaccinated in April with the J&J one shot. That shot got me sick for 5 days.

I was sick throughout the entire process but had no choice but to keep going. Everything I have hurts. It is like a horrible chest cold along with a sinus infection with a dash of flu. It has been a horrible experience."

AND I am around this guy all the time. He was very mad at his wife for talking him into getting sick two times.

Are you seriously that fricking stupid? This administration is intentionally allowing hundreds of thousands of illegals to cross the border, many of those are infected. Are you seriously that fkn stupid that you don't understand the impact of that to the surrounding community and don't understand that the Biden Administration understands what is going on, and doesn't care because of the potential votes and political impact these illegals have. You think they give a shite about covid safety? If they did the border would be closed. Idgaf what trump says...this is common sense...people like you, first cut, etc ..total left activists. Also...people aren't stupid...the young have either mild symptoms or no symptoms...and everyone that dies now is tested...if they have covid...the death is marked covid...doesn't matter how they really died. But hey you guys keep going....maybe you'll get your wish soon and we will be a socialist/communist country

---

So how do you explain all the people that died when Trump was in office??? Oh wait...I'm sure you will probably say that it was all the immigrants that Obama let into the country. Oh no, wait...I'm sure you will probably say that the media was lying to us. Grow up dude. I know people who are on the front lines here in Texas and the hospitals are not overloaded with illegal immigrants. They are mostly overloaded with people who were too stupid to get vaccinated.

That person could be 21 and would be grossly underexageratting his risk

Show me a scenario where everyone was wearing a mask and the virus spread. Ill hang up and wait.
