    If you take all the unvaccinated, it’s not a mostly black group. So disparate impact doesn’t apply.

    No, it's NOT the same! If only 0.1% of car crashes resulted in death then seatbelts wouldn't even be a thing. Also, there is no risk in strapping a seatbelt. This is not the case for a vaccine - especially one that has no long term studies done on it.

    Voter ID also would applied to everyone and they were deemed racist. Try to keep up. At least try to be consistent ffs.

    WRONG (Again).:bored:

    Anyway, what does "ffs" mean (exactly)?

    I would hate to have to report you for circumventing the word censors.
    Carry on.:salute:

    I don't care about the left, either. I'm speaking for myself. No squirming at all.

    Voter ID is irrelevant. Are you trying to derail your own thread?

    I really don't care how it ends, either. I hope lives aren't needlessly lost, but I have no control over New Orleans.

    What are your predictions? Protests? I'd agree with that. Riots? Get real. And? What else? How 'bout needless deaths? Yep, that would qualify as "not ending well."

    This has nothing to do with states rights.
    And this is only in NOLA, not the entire state.

    How am I wrong? If you want to participate in the discussion then participate ffs. Simply saying I'm wrong and then posting silly juvenile emoticons is tedious.

    Voter ID is irrelevant and a distraction. Nobody goes to the hospital because their co-worker couldn't vote.

    Anti-vaxx is a death cult. Literally.

    It’s racist in the same manner people have to meet certain conditions to use a Starbucks bathroom or sit in a yogurt shop.


    Mods, can we make this thread a sticky, we finally found something that isn’t racist and it needs to b memorialized.

    The purpose it was brought up, I think, is to demonstrate the blatant hypocrisy of the race baiters. Those people need to shut up from this point forward.
    As far as a virus that takes less then 1% of people it infects - seems death cult is rather childish hyperbole.

    Glad we agree that the NOLA Vaxx Policy is NOT "Racist".

    How many people know about the Tuskegee thing? Kids these days can’t even read, write or do math when they leave high school. Where do you think they had time to shoehorn in Tuskegee, and in a world where everything is all about ‘me,’ do you think a kid would even care?

    There are many examples of anti-vaxx cultists dying while repenting. That everyone doesn't die changes nothing.

    The virus isn't an equal opportunity infectious killer. Your 1% figure is so misleading as to be considered false.

    To show hypocrisy, you need comparable actions, behavior or beliefs. Voter ID and covid vaccines have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

    Hypocrisy would be, "Voter ID in your [red or blue] state, but no voter ID in my [whichever color is left] state." That's hypocrisy. Comparing public health measures to voting is about as fallacious a comparison as you can make.

    The fact is that we don't even know the exact mortality rate because we can't know how many have actually been infected but my number is probably close enough. Certainly more accurate that what childish "death cult" comparison would yield.


    Statement 1: voter ID would disproportionately affect black voters so it is racist
    Statement 2: restricting access based on vaccine status would disproportionately affect black citizens is not racist

    huh?

    name one vaccine where people could not still catch the virus

    the vaccine helps train the immune systems to fight the virus if you do get it, it doesn't prevent you from getting it
