Former Obama Official Demands ‘a No-Fly List for Unvaccinated Adults’ https://www.breitbart.com/poli...outs-on-no-fly-list/ Former Assistant Secretary for Homeland Security under President Obama Juliette Kayyem called Tuesday for the Biden administration to restrict the unvaccinated from flying by placing them on a no-fly list. Kayyem claimed in the Atlantic that “a no-fly list for unvaccinated adults is an obvious step that the federal government should take” due to TSA PreCheck, which “divide[s] passengers into categories according to how much of a threat the government thinks they pose.” At the time of publication, the headline for the piece echoed this line, stating bluntly: “Unvaccinated People Belong on the No-Fly List.” The headline has since been changed to a more ambiguous sentence: “Unvaccinated People Need to Bear the Burden.” “If you submit to heightened scrutiny in advance,” Kayyem said, “TSA PreCheck lets you go through security without taking off your shoes; a no-fly list keeps certain people off the plane entirely.” The author continues: Flying is not a right, and the case for restricting it to vaccinated people is straightforward: The federal government is the sole entity that can regulate the terms and conditions of airline safety. And although air-filtration systems and mask requirements make transmission of the coronavirus unlikely during any given passenger flight, infected people can spread it when they leave the airport and take off their mask. The whole point of international-travel bans is to curb infections in the destination country; to protect itself, the United States still has many such restrictions in place. Beyond limiting the virus’s flow from hot spots to the rest of the country, allowing only vaccinated people on domestic flights will change minds, too. Kayyem also suggests the “holdouts” with “a variety of motivations” include 41 percent of the unvaccinated that said “a prohibition on airline travel would get them closer to their shots.” Kayyem champions shaming the unvaccinated, who should “face scorn among their peer group” and “may even be happy to have an excuse to protect themselves,” along with celebrating Broadway, Disney, and Walmart for forcing the unvaccinated to give up “certain societal benefits” to practice their their individuality and freedom of choice. “Amid a global health crisis,” Kayyem continues, “people who defy public-health guidance are not, and do not deserve to be, a protected class.” The former assistant secretary’s diktats align with President Joe Biden’s shaming and punishing of those who refuse to become vaccinated. For instance, Biden told churchgoers in April they were being ungodly if they did not receive a vaccine. “I think this is the Godly thing to do. Protect your brother and sister,” he stated. “That’s what this is about. It’s about protecting people.” On July 2, Biden indicated black Tuskegee airmen “were almost like guinea pigs,” when answering a question about vaccine hesitancy in the black community: You know, you go back just to — even World War II, African-Americans were used as experimental — they were almost like guinea pigs in terms of — they were — anyway, it — and your mom and dad remember that and your grandparents remember that. Vice President Kamala Harris warned July 19 if free Americans refuse to get vaccinated, they would cause continued mask mandates. “No one likes wearing masks… people need to get vaccinated. That’s the only way we’re going to cut this off,” she scolded. “Nobody likes wearing a mask.” _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

https://www.dailywire.com/news...ail&utm_medium=email I, much like the drummer in the referenced article, have Guillain Barré Syndrome, and I have not had the vaccine. I am not convinced that the vaccine will protect me, but I do know that I do not want to go through another flare-up of GBS. The first one had me hospitalized for over a week, two lengthy transfusions, months of physical and occupational therapy to get me graduated from the walker to a cane, and I still have not regained all normal hand strength and feeling (numb nerves). To date, I have not been asked to show any documentation of vaccination. Not sure what the outcome will be, if and when that happens. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Try finding some of the videos on the youtube or the major news sources concerning arrests for gatherings and folks not following masking guidelines. They are all over reddit | |||

Just when we were beginning to get away from this mask idiocy, we're right back in it. So, we get stuff like this. The mace-er acting like Billy Badass for his precious camera, and the mace-ee bellowing that he's "ADA compliant" and asking if "that's real mace." I swear, a black hole of stupid is going to open up inside this store. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Let me be clear: There is no carrot big enough to get me to take your jab against my will; there is no stick big enough to get me to take your jab against my will. You can offer me $100, free beer, free groceries, $1000, $1,000,000 and it won't matter. You can deprive me of employment, or movement, or anything else and it won't matter. What will make a difference? Convince me. Provide me with evidence and don't lie to me. But it will take more than propaganda and I will question your motives. I have a right to make up my own mind. I have a right to wait and see what the long-term effects are. It's called informed consent. Nothing short of convincing me that the vax is in my best interest will get me to do it. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

That video…omg, the cashier has a baton, oc and a body camera. Granted, the guy should have left when the shop keep told him to, but he didn’t deserve to get sprayed. And that’s why the DA dropped the assault charges against the shopkeep. The shopkeeper was w/I the laws for his state. I guess the sprayee didn’t know that the cashier can refuse or trespass anyone-bet he was gonna wait till the cops told him to go. Once 5e cashier refused him, the guy should have just walked off-you ain’t gonna sway his mask ideals… "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A.

I used to tell my kids that I'm holding out for a mansion and a yacht... But the more they push, the more they lie, the more they attempt to deprive me from doing and to coerce me... the more firm I become in my resolve. "Some things are apparent.

The thing about that video is we see the compound stupidity of this global clusterfuck- stupidity on top of stupidity, followed by more stupidity. This virus fiasco has made some awfully small minnows feel like the biggest shark on the reef. If the douchebag clerk had not had a camera, this would have played out differently, I think. We'll start to see more of this. You would think that people- after 18 moths of this horse shit- would have become much more sophisticated in coping with this never-ending farce. | |||

The division between the masked and unmasked and the vaccinated and unwashed have always been part of the overall plan. Get the people divided amongst themselves and they won’t think to turn on the real enemies, the ones who created this mess by lies, misinformation, deception and a willing media. I’m surprised by the sheer number of people who think those who choose to not get vaccinated need to be stripped of their rights and be imprisoned. Think of where this all started. Two weeks to flatten the curve. Then it was we need to reach 70% vaccination rate and we can get back to normal. Now it’s obvious this is not going to stop until they get to jab every single person in this country. Illegals are the exception of course. Plus they have destroyed the economy in the process and created millions more government handout dependent bums in the process. Let’s just bottom this shit out and get started over.

Yep, and I fear they're winning this battle. So many people are simply cowards and are living almost entirely on fear right now. Government is then further ramping up the amount of fear and using it as a means to turn people against each other. I have never been a huge fan of government in general, but I now find myself viewing them as the enemy of everything this country should/could be. Game, set, and match once again, to Governor DeSantis. The ROE should continue to be, push back hard every time the filth slings waste your way. Well done sir. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns. And several dogs, because a man with a cat is a woman.
