You are seriously brainwashed if you think kids this age group are in danger of serious consequences, and you know very well, unless you had lived under a rock for 6 months that these vaccines do not stop transmission. It's actually incredibly hard to prove that they have any benefit for such low risk group. Please find a very long 6 hour FDA panel video where they were deciding on EUA approval for 5+ vaccines, I dare you to listen to everything they said. ignorance isn't an excuse for segregation. |

And how would they do that? 1. They have no enforcement people. 2. It would be illegal to stop them. Why? Because they might do something? |

If teachers walked out I would fire every single one. Same with everyone else mentioned except medical professionals. All can be replaced just like air traffic controllers in the 80s. |

Have fun geting your semi-annual boosters and getting them stamped into your vaxxport, so that you can show it everywhere you go. It's the world you will love, enjoy it. Your kids will be masked forever or at least every flu season, most of the school year too. This isn't a political party issue: republican vs democrat. It has become politicized, but if you are truly pro-choice you will understand where I am going with this. |

The pandemic required masks and vaccines. We have had a couple hundred thousand extra deaths and more than a million extra extended ICU near-death experiences because dumbasses politicized basic public health measures and convinced other dumbasses to refuse masks and vaccines. Simple-minded people like you killed people. Wearing a mask is not a sacrifice or a burden. Getting vaccinated during a pandemic is not a sacrifice or a burden. |

Of course it is illegal. So was the march on the Edmund Pettus bridge which shut down traffic. So were MLK's marches in a number of cities. So were the anti-South Africa protests in the 1980s. So was Occupy Wallstreet. So were the BLM marches over the last couple of years. So were the anti-Vietnam war sit-ins. That's not the point. Of course they will be arrested. They have a right to their protest. That right comes with getting arrested. That is the American tradition. That is unless you want to take the view that all of those protests should not have happened. |

And that is relevant to what? That number is very small. We came through this pandemic strong. |

1) not everything is "open": school kids are still masked event though adults can gather indoors in unlimited numbers unmasked. NYC, SF and some other cities still have vaxxports and NYC even has it for 5 year olds  for whom this vaccine isn't FDA approved yet. NYC has all private employer vax mandate that even OSHA could not push through for large employers. CA schools are just now removing OUTDOOR mask mandates for the school kids. People in some professions are required to get boosters and many students who are double-vaxed AND Covid recovered are forced to take unnecessary boosters. One of my relatives now needs to see a cardiologist after her booster.
2) Even if mandates are lifted in many places and people in some places are pretty much back to old normal, these measures can easily come back next winter and every flu season for no real emergency. Emergency can be declared for any reasons now, the threshold is very low. And we know emergency powers can be used to enforce any sort of restrictions. I am not a concervative and never was, but i have no interest to live in a permanent state of "emergency" and fear propaganda and hope we would be "allowed" to live our lives and especially maintain our bodily autonomy and freedom of movement. |

There is a difference between a scheduled point to point protest march lasting part of a day and a plan to occupy and obstruct transportation and commerce for a week or weeks. There is also a huge difference between protesting racial oppression and the racist police state of 1960s Alabama and protesting basic traditional public health measures that don’t harm or discriminate against anyone. This is a more extreme action and it’s for the stupidest cause. |

| Why now as most places are loosening up restrictions? |

They were told to mask up and get vaccinated a year ago. They stood with their mouths open for a year trying to understand what that means. They are just very slow. |

No there is not and that is the point. You have to be ok with a KKK/Nazi rally if you are okay with a BLM rally. Not okay in the sense you agree but ok in the sense that it has a right to occur. Where is the evidence that this is anything other than a march? They have no plans to block traffic for weeks. |

Uh no, all the pandemic restrictions are falling everywhere. Much fewer lockdowns, mask requirements, etc. We aren't required to wear masks at our school, grocery store, etc. I expect it'll all be lifted this summer unless there's another big surge in case numbers. Bottom line: No one needs the truckers to protest for them. They are not speaking for us, they are just reacting to Fox News hysteria. They are protesting the wrong policies at the wrong people for the wrong reasons. |

I have no problem with it. Take your anti-vaccine foolishness over to the Fox pages. |
