Los Angeles Public Schools Mandate Shots for Children 12 and Up: ‘About Collective Good’
breitbart ^ | 9 Sep 2021 | SUSAN BERRY

Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) became the first in the nation to require all children aged 12 and older to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Los Angeles Board of Education voted unanimously Thursday to approve the mandate for all children 12 and older, with those involved in extracurricular activities, such as sports, to be fast-tracked to get their first required shot by October 3, followed up by the second before Halloween.

“It’s about the collective good,” board President Kelly Gonez said before the vote, reported the New York Post. “It’s about what’s best for the community as a whole and sometimes that necessitates challenging decisions.”

All other children 12 and over are mandated to obtain the first jab by November 21, and the second by December 19.

Children not yet 12 years of age will be required, according to the board, to get their first shot no later than 30 days after their 12th birthdays, and the second one no later than eight weeks after their 12th birthday.

LAUSD is the nation’s second largest school system after New York City.

Odis Johnson Jr., executive director of the Center for Safe and Healthy Schools at the Johns Hopkins University School of Education said, “Mandatory vaccination mandates move us forward toward finally addressing students’ developmental, social and academic well-being,” he said.

I hear the word “collective” these days and I pretty much instantly distrust and dislike the speaker.

Dear Teachers:

The shots don’t work.

The kids are going to be goofing around with the masks.

Apparently, you’re doomed.

Have a good year.

“Collective Good.”

I envision either a swastika or a hammer and sickle when I hear those words.

My happiness is not the means to any end. It is the end. It is its own goal. It is its own purpose.

Neither am I the means to any end others may wish to accomplish. I am not a tool for their use. I am not a servant of their needs. I am not a bandage for their wounds. I am not a sacrifice on their altars.

I am a man. This miracle of me is mine to own and keep, and mine to guard, and mine to use, and mine to kneel before!

I do not surrender my treasures, nor do I share them. The fortune of my spirit is not to be blown into coins of brass and flung to the winds as alms for the poor of the spirit. I guard my treasures: my thought, my will, my freedom. And the greatest of these is freedom.

I owe nothing to my brothers, nor do I gather debts from them. I ask none to live for me, nor do I live for any others. I covet no man’s soul, nor is my soul theirs to covet.

I am neither foe nor friend to my brothers, but such as each of them shall deserve of me. And to earn my love, my brothers must do more than to have been born. I do not grant my love without reason, nor to any chance passer-by who may wish to claim it. I honor men with my love. But honor is a thing to be earned.

I shall choose friends among men, but neither slaves nor masters. And I shall choose only such as please me, and them I shall love and respect, but neither command nor obey. And we shall join our hands when we wish, or walk alone when we so desire. For in the temple of his spirit, each man is alone. Let each man keep his temple untouched and undefiled. Then let him join hands with others if he wishes, but only beyond his holy threshold.

For the word “We” must never be spoken, save by one’s choice and as a second thought. This word must never be placed first within man’s soul, else it becomes a monster, the root of all the evils on earth, the root of man’s torture by men, and of an unspeakable lie.

The word “We” is as lime poured over men, which sets and hardens to stone, and crushes all beneath it, and that which is white and that which is black are lost equally in the grey of it. It is the word by which the depraved steal the virtue of the good, by which the weak steal the might of the strong, by which the fools steal the wisdom of the sages.

What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and the impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

But I am done with this creed of corruption.

I am done with the monster of “We,” the word of serfdom, of plunder, of misery, falsehood and shame.

Home school bump.

Public schools are child abuse.

Don’t know about you but I’m loving this. We’re finding out who the chumps are. Something tells me it’s the women who are there real men.

Kids should boycott the schools.

I opted to get the vaccine, but there’s absolutely no way
I’m backing this forced inoculation ruse.

We hear a lot of talk about re-education camps. If we are to survive as a nation, the camps need to be for women like this.

Forget the Taliban. Leftist women are this country's greatest enemy.

The answer is choice-schools. Get it? Fast ball over the middle. Knock it out of the park opportunity. Does the GOP get it? Do the freepers?

"...will be required to get their first shot no later than 30 days after their 12th birthdays"

Might as well have them register for the draft at the same time.

If they want to use collectivist arguments then a collectivist argument against abortion is that there are 70-million missing Americans because of abortion-on-demand that could be paying for my Social Security.

I don’t feel that way, but you have to fight fire with fire.

From what little reading I’ve done about several large school districts, it is my understanding that Los Angeles, along with New York In Baltimore are some of the worst performing public schools in the country where students will graduate barely able to read in many cases.

Leftist women won’t go for “choice schools.” They think they’re those “icky religious things” no matter what they are.

LA United is the WORST..my nephew’s lil friend unfortunately is going to an LA County school, she is Jewish and is being taught CRT but her mother told her to just ignore the nonsense that its BS but she still has to sit there and hear it..my sister bought a house in Calabasas which is its own separate school district NOTHING to do with LA County, no CRT, none of that garbage. They do require masks in the classroom and every morning my sister has to answer some questions on an app such as if the kid has any symptoms, doesnt feel well etc..but no testing, no mandate on shots or anything like that so she is happy..at least I know when my nephew goes to school he is not taught CRT garbage..he’s in the first grade all he has learned so far is what they used before they invented pencils LOL
