Its just the flu, bro.
Learned a new phrase today - medical police state. That phrase doesnt seem to fit well with freedom and liberty.
I checked the internet after I heard Alan Dershowitz say it on Tucker Carlson - apparently mandatory vaccinations for everyone are legal if the state/government thinks they serve to protect people. This is another concept that doesnt seem to fit well with freedom and liberty.
It is definitely concerning that these anti-freedom concepts are in place. Especially because there doesnt seem to be any predefined minimum threshold that must be exceeded for the state to declare a medical emergency and take our freedom away. Essentially as long as politicians think it is OK to force the vaccination then it will be supported by the courts.
At least with the lockdowns we seem to be having some success with the courts as the 5th amendment seems to protect people/businesses from having their stuff taken without due process and just compensation.
Hopefully we can get a favorable Supreme Court ruling, if a case goes there, to help protect Americans freedom from the medical police state.

August 1 is the latest possible date the athletic directors in Texas are giving for football practices to be started, if the college football game schedule is to be kept. Governor Abbott says college football is going to happen, therefore August 1 is the date that I predict for most lockdown restrictions to go away. We will all essentially be saved by football.
Wish I was certified. 30 years college and university teaching means I don’t qualify. I took all the methods,er indoctrination, classes except for teaching for free (student teaching) years ago.
I’m older, but willing to take the risk. Or is this another area Indian scumbags will be brought in to replace Americans?
I do know Filipino teachers are brought in some districts,but they tend to follow the US education system.
“30 years college and university teaching means I dont qualify.”
That is just too accurate. It needs correcting.
I think similar restrictions and limitations to personal and economic freedoms need to be written before this overreaching fiasco is repeated. Our Arizona legislature went AWOL and our Courts closed. There needs to be an auto-stop order in these laws.
Maybe a new derperhero will emerge who is like Judge Dredd, only for healthcare crises. Maybe they can be called Doctor Feer. And they empty churches and movie theaters with their flamethrower if anyone so much as sneezes or coughs in one. And if anyone tries to bring up the Constitution, they give ‘em a little “candlelight” to read it by.
Dont give them any ideas...
And you could catch it from a toilet seat.
What is the mortality rate for the flu? 0.1%?
