Judge blocks Florida law preventing cruise lines from requiring proof of COVID vaccine
ktla ^ | Aug 9, 2021 /

Sunday, the judge said Florida failed to “provide a valid evidentiary, factual, or legal predicate” for banning requirements that passengers prove they’ve been vaccinated. Norwegian has shown that suspending the requirement will jeopardize public health, potentially causing “super-spreader” events wherever passengers disembark, she wrote.

Florida separately sued the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention seeking to block federal cruise ship vaccination requirements. The CDC lost on appeal, but then made its guidelines non-binding, and all cruise lines operating in Florida have agreed to keep following the CDC’s instructions on a voluntary basis, the judge wrote.

I’d like to say....It’s amazing how hyper-partisan the court system is in this country...but it’s not amazing.

This judge and the folks on the Left making these decisions have government jobs and have not missed a paycheck.

At this point, who cares anymore. Let them have what they want. Everyone just lay down and do nothing. Let Uncle Sugar take care of us. If they can give a moratorium on folks paying rent then they can give a moratorium on evictions and folks not paying their mortgage.

Shut everything off and let is die on the vine.

They count on folks showing up for work no matter what. As much as they talk about ‘living wages’ they count on folks showing up a Burger King to flip burgers or illegals showing up to pick tomatoes. F*ck it.

Perhaps the State of Florida should follow the lead of Maricopa County re court orders.

This goes to the Eleventh Circuit, which is 6 Trump, 5 Odiousbama/Rapin Bill and 1 Dubya.

If the 3-judge panel gets loaded with Commie "judges", Florida loses.

En banc, Florida wins - unless the Dubya judge is a squish.

Months, though - unless the Eleventh expedites.

GOP majorities don’t even matter anymore. Even when they find it in themselves to follow the will of the people, a crooked leftist activist judge comes along and stops them.

Exactly.

And the workers STILL aren't showing.

I shudder to think where we'd be if Cankles had "won" in 2016.

No "plandemic" - but completely ruled by CommieCrat "judges".

This Kathleen Williams is an Odiousbama sleeper "judge" - ushered in by "unanimous consent".

Just waiting for her "time to shine" in the service of The Revolution...

There are other ways that Florida can force the cruise industry to respect American’s rights.

We must justify why we shouldn’t have our freedoms revoked.

You’re assuming Trump appointed judges will not agree with Trump that the vaccines are a life saver.

How about the fact that it violates HIPPA?

Scales are the symbol typically used to represent the law, often misnamed "Justice".

However, with all these activist judges now taking it upon themselves to constantly legislate from the bench, seems like a pendulum would be more fitting.
