Uh... no. It's all about making $$$ for big pharma. Get people signed up for as many boosters as they can.
The government doesn't care about your health.

Im not going to make large case on why I dislike him because this is a subjective opinion. I cannot be proven wrong or right. Its not something statistically based. But Ill give you a synopsis of why.

-I hate his poisonous rhetoric toward those who question him
-I hate the fact that his intentions are to do anything to hold public office. Moving from Florida after losing re-election to Texas, becoming head of the Texas GOP, and then resigning to run for office. Hes a climber.
-I dont like the fact that he showed up here and tried to turn the locals against other transplants who dare to not conform to stereotypical Texas politics.
-I dont like the fact that he flirts with Qanon.
-I HATE THE FACT THAT HE PUSHED SECCSSION despite it being incredibly unpopular in Texas
-He gave an opinion that the reason Gen. Mattis was hired was to exterminate Muslims. (to be fair, I hate Islam just as I hate Christianity and all religion. There is however a difference between extermination of the follower and hatred of the doctrine).

Thats some of it. Im not interested in arguing about it. You asked me a question and I answered. I say again, Im glad he has Covid and while I dont wish him death I do wish a miserable experience for him. That doesnt mean I abhor those who like him or follow his politics, but I do abhor him.
Not one link. Not one specific. Nice.

I have no interest in going down that road with you or anyone else. Dislike of a person is subjective, not objective. There is nothing to prove. Allen West did do all those things I listed, but Im not interested in apologetics.

sharing vehicles, and an even greater danger when arresting or transporting. I'm not sure why they wouldn't want to do everything they can to mitigate their chance of getting sick. Here in Sac County the deputies almost never wear masks, but they are probably ok because they almost never get out of their car but that's a story for another day lol

Do you think that Bill Gates is behind this massive conspiracy? Is COVID fake news and that nothing is different from 2019? Do unicorns and fairies exist?

No, I don't believe Bill Gates is behind it. I do know as a matter of fact, these "vaccines" have injured and killed more people in one year than all vaccines in the last 30 years combined.

Question for you: If the US government shut down the swine flu vaccine in 1976 (after only 54 deaths in 47 million vaccinated) why did they not shut down the covid vaccines when we've seen over 25,000 deaths worldwide and hundreds of thousands injured? I'll go ahead answer it for you: profit. The CDC and our government have been bought and paid for by big pharma. They know they will make a killing off the profits if they can convince a bunch of people they need vaccines every 6 months.

Please. Not everything is a conspiracy theory, despite what you see on FauxNews, OAN and Newsmax. Did the US government bungle stopping the spread of COVID? Of course. You want to place blame? Blame the federal, state and local governments in 2020 for not executing an effective testing, tracing and isolation strategy. Blame the Trump administration for dismantling the pandemic task force that Obama set up. Plenty of blame to go around, but this has everything to do with both politics and poor management and not some far fetched conspiracy theory.

There are over 4.5 million deaths worldwide documented due to Covid 19. Undoubtedly, the actual number is much higher since many deaths have occurred in third world countries and are poorly documented. I don't for a second concede 25,000 deaths are due to the vaccines. However, even if a few deaths were due to the vaccines it would have to weighed against the huge number of deaths caused by this disease epidemic.

There is just something mentally wrong with people who insist there is a conspiracy between government and big pharma rather than worrying about all the loss of life from the epidemic.

I really wish people would leave the cops alone. We have a manpower shortage and we cannot afford to lose any cops. Furthermore, these people risk their lives keeping us safer, so as far as I'm concerned, they can abstain from getting vaccinated if it suits them. And furthermore, this is a "sanctuary city", so that sanctuary should extend to everybody, if we're going to be fair about it.
