Lynch mobs have always been a part of our culture.

The fact that these mobs don't pour hot tar on people or kill them does not make today's lynchers morally superior.

Tyranny of the majority is still tyranny.

And mobs violence always starts small - witness Krystalnacht (sp?).

Many of those denigrating non-vaccinatted are displaying their lack of a moral compass.

Gloating seems stupid and counterproductive, but I'm certainly in favor of making being vaccinated or constantly tested against a deadly and contagious virus a job requirement. This isn't about people's own appetite for risk, this is about what you push on others as a result of your decisions.

Honestly, there's no way we could every pass seat-belt laws in this country nowadays...

I don’t think the divide is political; I think the divide is between those who enjoy virtue signalling and those who hate being bullied.

There are more important things than living. And that’s saving this country for my children and my grandchildren and saving this country for all of us. I don’t want to die, nobody wants to die, but man we’ve got to take some risks and let unvaccinated health care workers possibly spread Covid to their patients. We’ve got to get back in the game and get this country back up and running.
