I’ll participate in any thread I choose. These are open public forums. You have zero authority. If I have angered any person in this thread, that is their burden to bear, not mine. I don’t care what your politics are. I just find it humorous the same people who push for police vaccine mandates are the same people who support defunding the police. If you’re not among them, I don’t care. Through your posts, it is apparent you hold onto an authoritarian ideology.

If you want more people to get vaccinated, should have convinced people the science of the vaccine rather than push for mandates. So rather than this being a conversation of science, it has now become a conversation of liberty and people feel virtuous holding onto and fighting for liberty. You mandators messed up.

Of course we all die, but if you were going to jump out of a plane wouldn't you wear a parachute? Most of us don't want to die, and we don't want those we love to die or to become seriously ill. That's why we invented vaccines, that's why most sane people choose to take them. My ex daughter-in-law said that in the hospital she hears this fatalistic nonsense about "oh well we are all going to die anyway" when people are told they have Covid, but when they are asked if they want to facetime with their family before they are hooked up to the ventilator because that's probably the end of the road, those 'tough guys' all start begging, crying and praying.

If you can beg cry and pray you don’t need a ventilator and no health professional would ever say you better FaceTime your goodbyes before we hook you up……… good God!!!

According to this academic journal article....approximately 7-8 million children died of just the measles every year before the measles vaccine was introduced.

The measles first appeared in the U.S. in 1912. It took many years to rack up thousands upon thousands of deaths until the vaccine was approved decades later. COVID-19 first appeared in this country less than two years ago.

What is your point?

To me, it is just more leftist anti-police rhetoric, but I think the slogan is self defining. For the hardcore leftist, it could mean abolishing and dismantling of the police (great idea). For other progressive Marxists, it could be reallocating funds from the police budget toward social programs. I have heard having social workers and psychologists respond to emotionally disturbed person jobs rather than the police (another brilliant idea). Hey Tulemutte, there may be a job for you. Again, I find it funny the same people who want police to vaccinate so they can effectively do their jobs are the same people who want to defund the police so they can’t as effectively do their jobs. Pretzel logic. It truly requires a low IQ to be a leftist. They are overrun with stupid people. My goodness, you can’t make this up.

I kind of like it. And presumably it's a lot less painful than getting shot or tasered.

If you go to an unbiased platform like Youtube, you will find a 98% thumbs down ratio on almost every video about the vaccine mandates. Fauci has some sort of documentary coming out (for damage control) and it has 114,000 downvotes and 7,900 upvotes. I think it's pretty clear most people do not like the CDC or the mandates. Every person I know who has taken the vaccine has told me they do not support mandating it.
