I already said, anyone should be allowed to refuse that vaccine for any reason at all. ANY reason, including religious reasons, health reasons, lack of evidence from the government that it's needed. ANY reason. No employer should force any employee into receiving injections into their own bodies especially when there's no evidence that the person needs them.

I didn't get the vaccine and I'm still alive, many people around me that received a vaccine have gotten sick -- so why should anyone be forced to take a vaccine like that? One doctor here said the seasonal flu vaccine lowered the immunity of many who received it so they got the H1N1 while those who refused the vaccine weren't affected so didn't get sick. That came from a physician.

It all depends on what "harassment" means. If free speech is harassment -- then it's fine. Many newcomers are so sensitive today, they want no religious debate whatsoever. They want free speech ended, no one can say they're wrong, silly, or anything.

Protestants and Catholics have battled each other with words for many decades -- that's part of living in a free country. Christians have been told they must live with crucifixes being placed into jars of urine in the name of "art" yet the non-Christians aren't to be given any look they don't like. And what is an "evil stare"? Does that mean when someone just looks at you out of curiosity, you should have them arrested and charged with some harassment suit?

Free speech isn't walking up to a stranger and being hostile and say something derogatory toward them. That isn't free speech. Free speech is you going on Twitter and writing whatever you want about Sikhs. Thee person dipping crucifixes in urine isn't ringing your doorbell and saying "see" There is a huge difference between harrassment and free speech. Basically, this comes down to you wanting to bully someone for being different and trying to justify it with weak logic about free speech. We get it. I'm sure Sikhs don't appreciate your raised pick up truck or your country music but they aren't beating you up for it.
