CT if you don’t care than why do you keep bringing it up? The post was originally about the trucker convey. You were to first to mention anything about vaccine status and than want to cry foul. Don’t bring it up next time then.

Don appears to feel personally attacked for some reason. Like I've already said several times, believe what you want and do what you want. You have every right to do so. I'm gonna do what I feel is best for my kids. What's the point in getting angry? I'm not gonna change your mind and you're not changing mine. There's plenty of info available about all this stuff as you already know. No point in arguing my guy. Get the vaccine or don't, I really don't care man. But what you decide to do is none of my business and vice versa.

I don't feel personally attacked. I do get angry when due to their ignorance on something, a person repeats misinformation about vaccines due to their lack of knowledge/experience on how vaccines actually work. Your knowledge is based on what you read or hear. And by all means, vaccinate your children. It does not affect me in the least.

CT, we all have our understanding of how vaccines work, and it's OK to disagree. What some people (including myself) may dislike, is how you suggest to treat those who disagree with you. You said that unvaxxed people must stay away from your kids. I see and understand your intention to protect family, but this is not exactly how things work. If you think that other people may be dangerous, it is your task to avoid them, and not their, isn't it so?

Audrey. If you read what I said, Ive been trying to keep my daughter isolated since before covid happened. That's on us ( my wife and I), didn't say anything about others. I also said both vaccinated and unvaccinated. It's an unfortunate situation that we have to try and get through, but again it's our situation. And Don, technically all our knowledge is based on what we read or hear unless you conducted studies yourself. Anyway, really no need for the back and forth. It's just a waste honestly

Then why did the Biden admin tell everyone it would stop the spread?

Russia Rachel Maddow was slamming her fist on the desk exclaiming it would “stop the virus dead”

Believe what you want to believe kind sir.

1) I am ANDREY. 2) I did read what you said. You said "just don't go spreading the virus to everyone around you and keep away from us."

No one is attacking you for being vaccinated nor trying to protect your kid. That is exactly what the protests are about. Personal choice. You do you, but leave us alone. They have admitted vaccinated people can get and spread Covid, so how does me getting vaccinated against my will protect you?

But saying it was never meant to stop infection is simply not true. It also doesn’t stop the spread, as vaccinated people still get it, still spread it, still get hospitalized, and ventilated.

Here is two pages of searches of Biden and Maddow saying it prevents Covid.

Everyone started by saying it prevented it. Then when that obviously wasn’t true, they said it would stop the spread. Then when that became obviously not true, it reduced symptoms. That has also become obviously false, but now they have no other position to fall back on so they keep insisting it is true. Despite several scientific bodies stating flat out that it doesn’t do much of anything against omicron, which is 90%+ of the current cases.

It's not meant to stop the spread, just to reduce the chance of getting severe symptoms in case you do get it. I'm not gonna bother arguing about the vaccine, that poor dead horse has been beaten beyond recognition. But anyway, that's why I said it doesn't matter to me if someone gets the shot or not, just stay away from my kids. Hell I don't even want vaccinated people getting near my kids if I can help it. Be glad with all this craziness is done with

Im with them 100%, its about time us drivers take the lead and grip the bull by the horns and step up to this deep state and Kabal that seems to think they should be able to go unchecked and do all sorts of evil. Nothing will get done without truckers. I have thought about asking my DM if I could get permission to go over. I know their headed over to Dump Crap on the 23rd, I will be off the 26th and 27th. Birthday is the 27th. So I could go then.

I hope though that its not a deep state or cabal trap to find out whose a patriot for the Republic or Canada so they can track us and keep us under their illegal corporate government thumb. All I do know is we need to step up in one way or another because otherwise our nations are going to disolve into a heap of chaos and confusion.

So what do you guys think about the Canadian truckers and their fight for freedom?

If we do the same thing here, do you guys think you'll go? I realize company drivers can't take their trucks, but you can take your personal vehicle to Washington D.C. or to a protest in a nearby city.

I'll share my views later in this thread. I want to hear what everyone thinks first. You guys know me....I always have a view!

EPU:

Electric Auxiliary Power Units

Electric APUs have started gaining acceptance. These electric APUs use battery packs instead of the diesel engine on traditional APUs as a source of power. The APU's battery pack is charged when the truck is in motion. When the truck is idle, the stored energy in the battery pack is then used to power an air conditioner, heater, and other devices

C.T. captured the spirit of the protest perfectly with this comment in my opinion:

My family and I are fully vaxxed. But if some guy wants to not get vaxxed why should I care? Just don't go spreading the virus to everyone around you and keep away from us. Other than that the Canadians and whoever else can protest all they want

The protest is ultimately about not wanting the government to be able to tell us what we have to do with our own bodies. It's about our freedom to choose what we think is best for us. Not everyone agrees on what is best but, the ability to decide for yourself is what is important.

C.T. even goes out of his way to highlight the fact that although he feels a "vaccine" is best for his family, he is okay with the protest. Because it is not about the efficacy of the "vaccine" its about an individual's right to decide what's best for them.

OOS:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
