Love that the Government feels so free to discriminate.

free admission to Louisiana state parks is being offered now for anyone who has been vaccinated, Gov. John Bel Edwards and Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser announced today.

Brilliant strategy. Offer free admission to parks that only cost $3 to enter when the Office of Tourism is one of the worst funded in the state.

Not only that, but now you are inviting a bunch of people that will probably trash the place up, meaning the meager staff present has to spend extra time cleaning up after trashy people.

At this point, what is the argument to not be vaccinated? Seems like a win-win for everyone to be vaccinated, idk, maybe im crazy.

seems like it’s everyone’s personal choice and we should mind our own win win business about it.

But if more people get it, the less cases there are, the less hospitalizations there, the less chance you spread it to others, the greater chance everything finally returns to normal?

Simple, for me anyway. Statistically speaking, the likelihood of me even contracting the virus is small based on my age group's statistics; the likelihood of dying is even smaller.

Statistically, there's no benefit to me taking the vaccine--even if it means I have to pay $3 to enter a State Park.

Are your kids in school? Do they get vaccinated for school?

You are going to have to spell out the demographics you are using in that Venn.

Trashy people know no demographic boundaries.

However, I've spent a decent amount of time in State Parks and other recreational areas, and I've rarely seen a certain demographic in said locations.

What point are you trying to make? Do my children get vaccinated against diseases that don't easily mutate and have been virtually eliminated through the use of vaccines? Sure.

Does anyone in my family receive an annual flu vaccination, which is more comparable to the COVID vaccine? Nope.

The government REALLY wants you to get the vaccine.

So do they expect people to carry their “right to live” card with them to the park, or how are they expecting to enforce this.

frick all those sumbitches and the goat they rode in on.

I expect it is like proof of residence to get free admission to things like museums owned by states or municipalities, if you have it you get in free if you don't you have to pay.

I had the virus.

The argument I have is scientists can't determine whether the vaccine protects people longer than antibodies from having already been infected.
Science says I'm protected up to 2 years and vaccines are good up to a year. WTF is that?

Meanwhile, there are legitimate concerns with side effects of the vaccines.

So logically, I'll wait until next year when my estimated 2 years of natural antibody protection expires.

Shut the frick up. This isn’t Twitter. We also don’t get woke tokens attached to our usernames.
