I really want to know what the kid's tantrum was about.

Well, there should be a lawsuit in 5...4...3...2....

OTOH, I also told my flight instructor that I have no intentions of obtaining my pilot's license and that I have no intention of learning to take off or land - without him in the other seat. I'm just doing this to increase my James Bond potential, learning some basics of how to fly a plane. Man card CEUs. Actually obtaining my medical cert and insurance required to solo is taking it a little too far. I have never considered how suspicious I must look post 911.

Imagine how bad it would be now if Trump hadn't built that wall!!

I mentioned a certain analogy, regarding masks and vaccinations vs. "freedom," and wondered why no one else was citing that simple analogy.

Well, at least Ah-nold got around to it, yesterday...

Excerpt:

...“‘Well my freedom is being kind of disturbed here,’” Schwarzenegger said, impersonating anti-vaxxer excuses. “Screw ‘your’ freedom. Because with freedom comes implications and responsibilities.”

While he said people are free not to wear masks, he also said, “You’re a schmuck for not wearing a mask because you are supposed to protect your fellow Americans around you.”

According to Schwarzenegger, much like the way he dedicated his life to building muscles, medical experts like NIAIA director Anthony Fauci have committed themselves to virology and should be taken seriously. He also made the analogy that a stoplight is a temporary restriction of personal freedom, but blowing through one to make a political statement isn’t very smart. Same goes for wearing a mask, says Schwarzenegger, who served as California’s governor from 2003 to 2011 as a Republican...

Thank you Lenona for helping to reinforce that this is politics and not medicine. Really helpful there. I'm sure Schwarzenegger was very convincing to blacks and hispanics living in New York City and other Democrat dominated towns.

♥'ing Lenona.

Ben, I think it's a safe bet that Arnold was mainly trying to get certain long-term FANS of his to listen up, given that it's been a little while since he was in the spotlight.

And, chances are, most of those fans are white.

In other words, he doesn't have the power he used to, but either he's trying to get some publicity back or he's trying to get some credit for saving some lives - with what little influence he has left.

And thanks, Crid.

"As observed in prior weeks, Black and Hispanic people have received smaller shares of vaccinations compared to their shares of cases and compared to their shares of the total population in most states." ~link

Despite what you think you know blacks and hispanics are the largest vaccine opposed groups in the US. Typically ones living in large Democrat run cities. I doubt the govornator has much pull there.

As I said thanks for being clear this is politics and not medicine. Maybe disease and medicine should be a medical issue and not a political one.

When did I SAY anything about black people or Hispanic people, vaccine-wise?

Honestly.

I don't understand your remark about "reinforcing."

I was merely pointing out that at least one famous figure had the sense to come up with an analogy that any stubborn anti-vaxxer SHOULD be able to understand.

At any rate, there still are plenty of white anti-vaxxers who are a threat to society. It isn't Schwarzenegger's fault if only a small number of those people take him seriously enough to change their minds. After all, they've been stubborn for months on end.
