I go fishing for the day only to check in to see Jim is still stuck on this one, what’s the problem Jim I’m worried that you are able to read what’s posted but not able to comprehend, any other memory issues?

I asked for the rationale behind public policy that's stricter with children than with actors. None of your fellow libs here came close to answering the question. Saying 'it's the law' doesn't get at the logic, and saying "the entertainers are vaccinated and had negative tests' also doesn't answer the question, because I keep saying I'm talking about children who are similarly vaccinated and who similarly have a negative test.

Lobbing baseless insults is very easy. Try something that you guys find a lot harder, try answering this question...

If you have a group of entertainers who are vaccinated with recent negative tests, and you have a group of children who are similarly vaccinated with recent negative test...by what logic would you give freedoms and rights to the entertainers, that you wouldn't give to the children?

Hint, you can't answer the question I asked by saying any of the following, which are common liberal responses:

it's the law
why do you want all children to die
why are you so angry
why are you playing the victim card
the entertainers were vaccinated
ask the state of California
Jim you're stupid
why aren't you concerned with what happened on January 6th.
you're a racist
defund the police
its so obvious
Trump tells lots of lies and has an orange hue
a-duh-duh
f*ck you

I'll happily give you a chance to show a maturity and seriousness that none of the other lefties could muster...let's see what you got.

I did ask it again, because each time I nail one of you down and ask, every single one of you ran away from it and hid under your bed. It's beyond hysterical, you guys are so entertaining you should all be able to get together and wear tuxedos and sit near each other without masks.

Hope you fared better fishing.

Apparently Jim can’t figure out that to most people children are more valuable than entertainers, or his are not in his

oh i agree that any kid is more valuable than anyone in that room, which is why i say it’s important to help those kids become adults like…well to not become the kind of adults who attack children or who weaponize a persons ill wife. to have them turn out to be better adults than that, they need to have normal childhood experiences. which we presume you missed out on. which would
explain a few things.

The issue with “I already had COVID “ is that unless you’re tested it’s only a guess and likely no protection.

I have some friends who were convinced they had it because they were really sick with something.
Testing said no antibodies.
They got vaccinated and will gladly get the booster.

I don’t think there’s a single “Anti Vaccine Tool” here, but if it makes you happy.

We all might be vaccinated, but my post was out to the Mass sports fan universe, not specific to SB community. Thought Jim might need some fuel for his debate on fairness and regulations.

I used my cousin's ticket to the Foo Fighters last Friday night bc she couldn't get in to the show as she is not vac.

Saw Violent Femms last night and needed to show vac. card.

Going to David Bryne tonight on Broadway and have to show a vac. card (not sure if neg. test will work).

Sounds like you are Vac. If so, why not show the card? I could totally understand if you weren't vac. and didn't want to take a test.

I bet it's easier to get a form of identification for voting than it is to get vaccinated twice(maybe thrice now) and get a card, and it doesn't hurt or leave you in bed sick for a couple of days....

do the booster eligible have to show their booster cards and how do we identify them as they may be a danger to the public with waning effectiveness from their first jabs?

I went and saw Alice Cooper on Saturday night, walked in, no mask and no proof of vax required, as it should be.

I am vaxed but I'm not going to show paperwork to go about my life, sorry, just not going to do it.

And I'm not the only one that feels this way.

It was a great show. My daughter came home for the weekend and the two of us went.

When anti people drone on about “freedom,” what’s unavoidable is that by definition they mean the “freedom” to get sick (and use up limited healthcare resources) and to infect other people with COVID.
