[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am seeing statements from Maryland state police and other Maryland officials about preparations to address this if a convoy does come to the Beltway.  Crickets so far from Virginia.  If I’m the truckers, I head to the Virginia side of the Beltway because they don’t seem prepared to deal with it.[/quote]

This just fires them up and plays right into the whole "government is against us". [b]They want to be the victims.[/b][/quote]

This.

Victims of a "crisis" that they themselves created.  Brilliant.[/quote]

This seems to be the point. Everything is "open" and most places don't require even proof of vaccination. Even MoCo is dropping mandatory masks.

It's like a protest in search of a cause. Unless they just want to be victims and feel persecuted. This does seem to be the end game with a lot of conservatives.[/quote]

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  :shock:  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.  [/quote]
