From Huffpost.com 27May21:
An east Tennessee woman has been charged with seven counts of felony reckless endangerment after allegedly driving her car through a COVID-19 vaccination site as an apparent protest against the vaccine.
I wish this was unusual, but it's not. It's just another tragic incidence of disregard for the well being of one's fellow inhabitants of the community, or indeed, the planet.
But what makes my blood boil (and admittedly it's always on a slow simmer) is how hypocritical conservatives are about every single so-called principle they hold dear. Conservatives are, supposedly, stalwarts in support of individual liberties. Except, it seems, when a lot, or even any, individuals want to do something they, the conservatives, think is ... I don't even know.
Let's take abortion. Nobody says you have to have an abortion but the conservative mindset is that it's not enough to have individual agency. Because they don't want one, nobody can have one.
And now it's vaccines. I don't know what that lady's problem is with vaccines but how can it possibly matter to her that someone else gets vaccinated? Even if Covid is a liberal conspiracy, which it isn't. Even if the vaccine is a government plot to turn the vaccinated into mindless drones. So, don't get vaccinated. Why try to run the future drones down in the street?
I just don't get it.
