    Showing trumpists lies is pointless because they have eaten endless lies the last 4 years to the point of needing them to feed their addiction. LOL

    I can agree. But I will never shy away from vaccines that are beneficial to my general health.

    Good luck, Walt, When my family got the virus I was worried about what would happen to me when I finally got it. Believe it or not, getting the virus and getting through it is a lot less stressful than not having it and thinking you will die if you do. Does that make sense?

    It does. Stress sucks. I'm also a big baby when I get sick. I feel so bad for my Wife when I get ill. I start getting a sore throat and I tell her I'm dying. LOL

    Do you know what racism is? I don't mean that to sound rude but your comments lean toward you not getting it.

    That's part of the man code. ;-) It's so ingrained that actuarial studies are calibrated for men not seeking medical help.

    There's an old saying... if men had the babies, there would be zero population growth.

    Racism is ostracizing 65% of the Black Population in New York City. You're welcome.

    I wouldn’t call it racist I would call it BS but not racist. This legislation or order or whatever you want to call it mentions nothing about race. Turning something into what it’s not is not a Republican quality. There are other ways we can bash this as anti freedom and anti choice. We can start by telling Republican businesses to start requiring medical proof that their customers have not had an abortion.

    Well, to paraphrase the headline to this story, The 80's band Offspring (still performing it seems.... aren't they all?) "becomes first major U.S. band to mandate vaccinations to remain in the band"

    https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/offspring-drummer-says-booted-band-232313110.html

    You think the drummer is black, since this is obvious racism??

    The Offspring wrote the PERFECT line for anti-vaxxers - "You gotta keep em separated"

    Although I sort of disagree with your BS concept, the rest of your post is spot on...

    Faux racism aside, this will be an interesting experiment.... Unfortunately, like many public health measures, success is very hard to determine....

    Why do you have to keep them separated? How does the unvaccinated pose any threat to the vaccinated?

    How are the unvaccinated any threat to the vaccinated? They aren't, so why the push to separate the two groups?

    So requiring a person to show proof they are vaccinated is responsible but asking for an ID to vote is racist..... Liberal logic would be a funny SNL skit if it wasn't so dam dangerous!

    if only the vaccinated are there, they can fight if off as they are vaccinated

    the reason the vaccinated have to mask up is cause of those that won't get the vax

    that said, I support business asking for proof, not a gov mandate

    my belief is they know the higher courts will shoot this down, but it will be enough to scare most into complying for now and maybe encourage some to get the vaccine

    The vaccinated can catch and spread the virus from each other. It's no different if they catch it from an unvaccinated person or another vaccinated person.

    Not only do I agree with your point but the whole thing is rather stupid anyway. The vaccine, while making cases less serious, seems to transmit equally whether you are vaccinated or unvaccinated. And, since there are more vaccinated than unvaccinated, the fact is that this policy doesn't really do anything for public health. Nothing. In fact, since there are more vaccinated than unvaccinated spreading Delta, it would actually be better for public health to ban the vaccinated than the unvaccinated from these establishments but that doesn't fit into their liberal agenda.

    the faster you fight off the virus the less overall you give out....

    What? What does that have anything to do with vaccinated people spreading the virus because they are allowed in restaurants, gyms, etc?
