I have no problem putting a piece of cloth over my face if it’s in the interest of protecting the immune compromised or those who want but can’t get a vaccine, because it’s a minor inconvenience at best.
My goodness, imagine if some of you came of age during WWII or Vietnam & got drafted? What we’re being asked to do for our country right now doesn’t even compare.

Get some perspective in your lives.
If that happened today 1/2 the country would think it's a conspiracy. The draft most likely will never happen again because of Vietnam though.

Take what you will from it. Can anyone debunk them numbers? Are they right?
'typically a right leaning newspaper' is an understatement
The numbers are right. It's the conclusion that is wrong.
The conclusion is opinion….right or wrong. The numbers are facts. We’ve been told to follow the science, look at the numbers, look at the data…..when does it end? I just don’t get it.
So what do you take from those numbers? How do you follow the science?
Do you get vaccinated?
Only about 50% of the population of the US is vaccinated. This is why there is still reason for very serious measures to be taken...
Fully vaccinated here, entire family is. I only know a few that aren’t. It’s their call at this point. The science and numbers show vaccines work. We are a free society, you can’t have it both ways. Freedom to speak your mind, freedom to worship a god of your choice, freedom of the press and freedom to choose if you want to get vaccinated or not. The doom and gloom needs to stop. If you want to play with your life and choose not to that’s on you. We don’t need media constantly throwing despair in our face 24/7 any longer.
Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld the authority of states to enforce compulsory vaccination laws. The Court's decision articulated the view that individual liberty is not absolute and is subject to the police power of the state.

This is a great parallel. Imagine if you had to pass a breathalyzer test to start your car? Every car, not just the person who is forced to after multiple DUIs.
#1, I think this is a good idea.
#2, people would lose their fucking minds. "What happened to our freedom?!"

DUI's make county's/cities money. Plus if you had to pay for said breathalizer in your car I think you should be pissed.

If we can add no cell service when the motors on would help too
Apologies for going off topic just think the breathalyzer, no cell service, and max speed (factory installed) would save lots of lives…

He hits the nail on the head when pointing out that the people most resistant to the masks are the same people that latch onto and fetishize the military and the sacrifices that are made to serve.

If DUI laws had come about when there was an internet, social media, and "owning the libs," I'd bet there would be legitimate resistance to those laws. The Madison Cawthorns of the day would be calling it socialism. What better "Freedom without responsibility" is there than being able to drive drunk? And this is where they are now; freedom without responsibility.
Fortunately, many responsibilities are imbedded into our culture enough that they're not going away; at least not any time soon. Right now, not even one of these conservative elected pundits would try to make what is actually a kind of logical leap to the liberty inherent in driving drunk.

What you were getting at is a pivot and ignores my point that Americans today are incapable of saying "hey, it's not like I'm being asked to go storm the beach of Normandy, all I'm being asked to do is put on a mask".
That is the perspective I was getting at in my post that wasn't at all confusing, but congratulations on making it so.

I got that and looked at it another way, a pivot as you say. My point was in having to give up that much would make 1/2 the country think it's a conspiracy not so much up to the task.
I agreed with you and viewed it another way I don't understand what is wrong with that?

Do you get vaccinated?
Only about 50% of the population of the US is vaccinated. This is why there is still reason for very serious measures to be taken...
Fully vaccinated here, entire family is. I only know a few that aren’t. It’s their call at this point. The science and numbers show vaccines work. We are a free society, you can’t have it both ways. Freedom to speak your mind, freedom to worship a god of your choice, freedom of the press and freedom to choose if you want to get vaccinated or not. The doom and gloom needs to stop. If you want to play with your life and choose not to that’s on you. We don’t need media constantly throwing despair in our face 24/7 any longer.
However, the consequence of one's choice not to vaccinate is not limited to that individual.
Some people want to drive drunk, but this fascist country with all it's rules & laws won't let them.
Don't tread on me!!!!!!!
This is a great parallel. Imagine if you had to pass a breathalyzer test to start your car? Every car, not just the person who is forced to after multiple DUIs.
#1, I think this is a good idea.
#2, people would lose their fucking minds. "What happened to our freedom?!"
DUI's make county's/cities money. Plus if you had to pay for said breathalizer in your car I think you should be pissed.
Because DUIs are profitable? 30 people die each day in the US from alcohol-related car crashes. Money is not more important than saving lives.
Please by all means look into it.
I'm well-versed, thanks. I am confused as to your position. Are you against this proposal because DUIs are profitable?

Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld the authority of states to enforce compulsory vaccination laws. The Court's decision articulated the view that individual liberty is not absolute and is subject to the police power of the state.

Ha. You used the proper abbreviation, though.

The point that the sacrifice modern day Americans are being asked to make for the well being of the country is nothing compared to that of past generations of Americans.

Vaccinated people spreading Delta variant just as quickly as the unvaccinated: Leaked CDC document
and just to think that in 8 months or so the world is dumb enough to go to the Olympics in China…

Apologies for going off topic just think the breathalyzer, no cell service, and max speed (factory installed) would save lots of lives…
He hits the nail on the head when pointing out that the people most resistant to the masks are the same people that latch onto and fetishize the military and the sacrifices that are made to serve.
The absurdity of it all is staggering.
Fortunately, many responsibilities are imbedded into our culture enough that they're not going away; at least not any time soon. Right now, not even one of these conservative elected pundits would try to make what is actually a kind of logical leap to the liberty inherent in driving drunk.

What you were getting at is a pivot and ignores my point that Americans today are incapable of saying "hey, it's not like I'm being asked to go storm the beach of Normandy, all I'm being asked to do is put on a mask".
That is the perspective I was getting at in my post that wasn't at all confusing, but congratulations on making it so.
Well done.
I agreed with you and viewed it another way I don't understand what is wrong with that?
If you think these responses have been in agreement w/ my initial comment, you should probably revisit your understanding of what it means to agree with someone.
