On Tuesday, August 17, an official iron curtain descends over New York City, as unvaccinated New Yorkers are bared entrance to all indoor restaurants, bakeries, catering halls, event spaces, grocery stores that contain indoor dining, fast food restaurants, bars, hotel banquet rooms, coffee shops, nightclubs, museums and galleries, cabarets, bowling alleys, movie theaters, live music, concert venues, aquariums and zoos, professional sports arenas, stadiums, convention centers, exhibition halls, performing arts theaters, arcades, pool and billiard halls, recreational game centers, casinos, gyms, fitness centers, indoor classes, pools, fitness studios, dance studios, and sports classes.
Mayor de Blasio announced on Monday that New Yorkers must possess "the Key to NYC" in the form of a vaccine pass to "participate in everything our city has to offer" and that scoffers will face legal consequences for disobeying his decree. Small businesses, which struggled during the lockdown, may not survive this latest blast of tyranny, and thousands of workers will lose jobs that enable them to feed their families.
De Blasio, who vehemently supported Black Lives Matter marches during the lockdown, is now barring most young black New Yorkers from entering the city's restaurants and other establishments. Only 28% of black New Yorkers ages 18 to 44 are fully vaccinated, and they will now be forced into a shadowy apartheid existence, unable to work, eat, or play in tens of thousands of city businesses.
On Sunday, a raucous crowd of more than 300 people gathered near Gracie Mansion, the mayor's official home, to protest the vaccine mandates. Curtis Sliwa, the Republican candidate for Mayor, addressed the cheering crowd; so did Andrew Giuliani, who's considering a run for governor, and "Bronx Tina" Forte, who's running against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The mood was impassioned and furious, with an energized crowd chanting "Freedom over fear!" and "Unmask our children!"

I hope these wannabe dictators are hounded out of the country. Sadly, the left still worships them.
Protests? Where?
Many Americans love to show how much they care.
That is why they are so compliant in donning masks to prevent the spread of a virus and insisting that everyone else do so.
That is why they are so ready and willing without question to receive an injection rushed to market and insist that the entire population do the same.
That is why they are so compliant in allowing their government to take a good portion of their income to spend it on others, especially themselves.
That is why they would rather paste a rainbow over man-to-man butt sex than call it what it is.
That is why they sit by and watch while their language is perverted into one that accommodates dozens of gender iterations.
That is why they would rather drink deeply from mainstream media than question a single word coming out of their mouths.
That is why they refuse to recognize and deal with enemies both foreign and domestic as they wreak havoc in civil and criminal affairs.
That is why they throw open their borders and election processes without the slightest care for either discretion or diligence.
That is why they would rather see marriage and family destroyed than speak or act in defense of them.
That is why they will reap, and are reaping, what they sow by their “show of care.”
Ridiculous. And I don’t think he has the power. Who’s going to enforce it?
NYPD will very happily enforce this with extreme prejudice. They are the standing army the Founders warned us about.
Apparently your vaccine proof must come from NY.
SO tourists & outsiders not welcome.
The police are going to love enforcing it. They get paid to crush skulls and shoot pets.
‘Perhaps the most unusual perspective came from Stephen, a “cosmic shaman” from Brooklyn. He said he and other healers have noticed that vaccinated people exude a black energy for several months after vaccination. “It’s like the vaccine creates a barrier to make you numb. It reduces chakra levels.’
Anyone know whether “chakra” is the Hindi word for testosterone, charity, antibodies, or Christ’s grace?
Looks like the Delta surge has past, and new cases are declining.
You must have a travel pass to do anything in NY. Please, someone explain to me how this is not shades of various dictatorial regimes throughout history. I'd really like to hear from the pro-Poke Freepers that call people that don't take the Poke idiots and say they deserve bad things happening to them.
Sic semper tyrannis.
Cuomo had State Police, local LE, and health department flacks showing up and threatening businesses all over the state.
They’d do hundreds in one weekend.
The goon squads are already in place.
In NYS they threaten businesses.
I don't know, but decreased chakra levels sounds like a bad thing.
But, does black energy matter?
If this was so damn important/necessary why wasn’t implemented immediately.
Our county has had a big drop of covid case the last couple of days. I suspect you are correct.
Meanwhile, from yesterday...
NY to require state employees to get vaccines, or get tested
That includes Department of Health, too.
