Absurdity: Only 24 Percent of D.C. Residents Oppose Now-Ended District Vaccine Mandate

A new poll found that Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser's move to drop the district's vaccine mandate earlier this week was not a popular one, with less than a quarter of respondents saying they do not favor the mandates.

The poll, conducted by The Washington Post, discovered that 74 percent of D.C. residents supported the rule mandating that businesses such as restaurants, bars and concert venues require their customers to show proof of vaccination before entering. This, compared to just 24 percent who said they opposed the mandate and two percent saying they were unsure.

And 63 percent of residents said they believed Bowser had implemented the "right amount" of COVID restrictions while 16 percent said too many restrictions were issued and 19 percent said she had not issued enough.

Since Jan. 15, certain establishments risked fines if they failed to require that patrons over 12-years-old provide proof of vaccination.

Then on Monday, Bowser announced at a press briefing that the vaccine mandate would be lifted, noting that the district is "in a much better place now."

SMDH! So 76% approve of the lie they've been fed for nearly two years now. Pretty sad dang commentary on how much people value their freedumb. Veracity of the numbers? Who knows. I never answer polls because I never answer calls that aren't in my contacts list. Considering the location, not far fetched. Going from "Papers please or you'll be fined!" to "Convid? Meh!" And still people aren't questioning the original decree? Also saw a piece from the LAslimes about kids becoming accustomed to wearing masks and it not bothering them. WTAF?! Indoc working as planned?

Washington DC is the center of the progressive nanny-state government and the US empire. The uniformity and conformity of thought one sees there is absolutely amazing. There’s something in the water there.

One of my neighbors is a teacher.

She greatly fears Covid and masks up for dear life.

Those who do not make good slaves make good examples.

It’s D.C., home of the lowest scum. D.C. has had some of the highest COVID infection and death rates, being also highly vaxxed. Lowest educational competency. One of the most corrupt jurisdictions in the nation. They scrape the bottom of the barrel in several other measures.

“Also saw a piece from the LAslimes about kids becoming accustomed to wearing masks and it not bothering them”

I don’t believe that

They took the jab, so they want to force everyone else to too.

Of course, that completely ignores the admissions that the jabs at their best do nothing to stop contracting or passing on the virus (if indeed that’s what it is), and it is actually those who have been jabbed who are made into walking, spreading bioweaponized spike protein factories.

If you have not and feel VERY brave, walk around the parts of DC where the servant class lives. They are worse off culturally than those who worked on the plantations.

God has become absent and they live tribally, dependent on the ruling class for their substantive needs.

They are more than happy to be ruled because that is what they know and how they sustain their basic needs for survival.

It gives them an excuse now to fix up their basements and move into it

Well, with 70.9% of the population vaxxed, that 76% makes sense. Those who took the jab certainly don’t want to be seen as sheep who blindly followed the fold.

I think the servant class lives in places like Hyattsville and Columbia Blvd. in Arlington.

DC is the ultimate us against them city. THEY are the ruling class. WE are their peons.

Which is why it should be

  1. retroceded to Maryland.
  2. have everything between the Capitol complex and the Lincoln memorial turned into a beautiful national park.
  3. Have congress meet virtually with a nice big screen television in the gallery and hearing rooms for tourists to follow the action.
  4. Disperse every other department except the Pentagon and State elsewhere thoughout the country.
  5. Repeal the 23rd amendment.

No special city for the ruling class and their minions. Make them actual public servants again and disperse the parasites feeding off them.

Sounds like Pugetopolis. My job takes me to the outskirts of that hellhole and I see these pathetic nanny-government addicts wandering around looking stupid. Unbelievable.

Her lucky mask will defeat disease and maybe end war too!

At least it gets her out of the house, we might say, but getting out of the house used to imply smiling at a passerby or saying hi to a neighbor. With the masked it’s about as social as a spacewalk.

I’ve posted this a few times so apologies to anyone who’s already seen it...

Every day I hear or read something that confirms my decision to refuse these little tested experimental treatments was the absolute correct one, and today is no different.

Why would I want a shot that still allows me to catch the virus it’s supposed to prevent AND I can still transmit it. All for an ailment I have a 99.8% probability of recovering from....not to mention possible side effects from these shots I may never recover from.

No thanks.

D.C. is the armpit of america because after the civil war it attracted freed blacks who thought the givernment was on their side, they quickly found out northern whites were worse to them than southern whites . And now its drugged up hookers, selling drugs and politicians. The scum of the scum of the earth.
