Voodoo Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Isn't that asking a personal medical question? I'd thought the anti vaxxers didn't want to answer that question? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not sure I believe a fucking thing from this government any more. If my understanding this vaccine (which I took) is correct, the ONLY point of it is to protect me if I come down with it. I can still contract it and still transmit it, so if someone doesn't want a vaccine pushed by a government it no longer trusts, I completely understand that. Its their risk and no one else's. They have not made the case imo, and I strongly feel that we're not being told the whole truth, including that this was a man made virus, that Fauci had his hands in, and that it escaped the lab, either intentionally or accidentally. We are in fucked up times right now, and until our government starts treating its citizens with a little more respect and earns our trust, this is how its going to be I''m afraid, and no amount of demonization of people who are skeptical of the vacc will help. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I get tired of the shit, and people using the 'common sense' line like they have some kind of superiority over those who disagree. I don't run around calling people names or calling their decisions into question (except in jest early on).

I didn't mean to imply that not getting the vaccine wasn't using common sense. That would go against what I believe. I was referring to the way some act here. Forum posts aren't always the best way to communicate Also, there is WAY more people here preaching and posting anti-vax than preaching about getting the vax. I guess it's a good thing you have chosen that side or you would be going out of your fucking mind 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think it was appropriate then so be it. I'm on my side. Which isn't yours or anyone else's. Simply put, I am not going to fuck up antibodies with a vaccine with no track record. So fuck the vaxxers, and fuck the anti vaxxers, for I am neither, and have neither the time nor the inclination to entertain shit from both. As far as the OP.... the left has pulled shit like this forever. I think it is great what he did. It's his business and he gets to do as he sees fit and to chastise him is........ well, read the previous posts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not pro or anti vaccine. I've said it here many times, check with your doctor and try to make the decision that is best for you. As for the OP I've said that he has the right to do what he wants. I'm not sure if you have had any business experience in your life or not? As someone that has been in retail and service for most of my life, I think what he did is foolish as a small business owner. That was my point. Then I get jumped on for saying so. If I was still running a small business I wouldn't boast that I was pro vax either if I was in fact pro vax.

There is a Lt Col with 17 years in who resigned over Afghanistan. I don't know if you know what 17 years in the military is like, but only an idiot (myself included) bails at that time. But he did it over his personal convictions and morals. Same thing only different in my book; putting what's important on the line when you feel you have to do what's right. Was it foolish? Remains to be seen. But he has a thumbs up from me just for fighting back. (We can argue about 'fighting back' at another time)... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida diner that told Biden supporters to eat elsewhere becomes so popular it runs out of food "If you voted for and continue to support and stand behind the worthless, inept and corrupt administration currently inhabiting the White House that is complicit in the death of our servicemen and women in Afghanistan, please take your business elsewhere," the sign said in response to the death of 13 U.S. service members in a suicide bombing in Kabul, Afghanistan during the United States’ withdrawal from the country.
