Spare us the drama, and go back to your mother's basement.

Our country is not at this point heading into totalitarianism, that was last year.

Public Health Department workers first went door to door to do a survey to see who needed to be vaccinated.

You honestly, honestly are in favor of government officials going door to door? And so I'm clear you think more than 50% of Americans actually want that?

Welcome them with a smile and thank them for their service.
If you're naive enough to swallow this crap whole. I have a bridge in Brooklyn that might interest you.

But I suspect that like a lot of-self-proclaimed "liberals", you are seeking to recruit a "coalition of losers" in order to expand Big Brother's power and influence -- at the expense of those of us who still believe in pulling our own weight

Polls and opinions on this forum are only representative of a small segment of the population, which is why so many people on this forum are/were disappointed and outraged with the outcome of the election. <--That was the point.
And if the Radical Left insists upon starting a war, it will begin here.

Never seen something so insane. And yes, the red team has not vaccinated compared to the blue team, but sure can run around unmasked and unvaccinated and infect them. Grow up already!!!
These are experimental vaccines. Big difference Ms. Nanny StateMS.

If it's a male, I'll ask him about his latest prostate exam. If it's a female, I'll query regarding her latest Pap smear results.

I've worked in healthcare for 30+ years. Spent the past 16 years in Health Information Management. HIPAA was passed in the 90's and ever since then, health workers have been tasked to keep everyone's private health information private. We face penalties, fines and even jail time to keep public health information safe, secure and private. So are we just throwing HIPAA out now? There have already been plenty of ad campaigns and this is discussed during each news broadcast and in all the papers. Unless someone literally lives under a rock they already know about the vaccine.

We have seen that here. The sheeple have come out in full force talking tough and nasty about how they would treat the visiting professionals. They were (in short) acting like real jackasses and proud of it.

They just follow the propaganda they willingly suck in like mother's milk from Fox.
Yeah, lots of macho and gun toting on these threads.
Betcha a dime they'll either just not answer or be at least acceptably civil.

You honestly, honestly are in favor of government officials going door to door? And so I'm clear you think more than 50% of Americans actually want that?
That generalization was in response to the question and poll, you actually remarked "look at the poll results" as if it were some sort of definitive proof of what Americans think. And actually you certainly didn't state that it was an opinion, you presented it as fact, it's there in black and white https://www.city-data.com/forum/61413561-post72.html
Again you seem to read into things, you really should stop. What makes you think I'm in favor of door to door, or that I have any idea what percentage of people even care one way or another? Feel free to link or quote what I've said.

All I said was look at the poll results. Overwhelming "NO", not even remotely close. My guess is 90% of those votes are from Americans. Did I say I'd go in front of the Supreme Court and present City Data forums as my evidence?

And if you don't want people coming to your door either and/or don't care about percentages etc., what's the problem here?
