If the vaccine works, why are vaccinated scared of un-vaccinated?
Regarding the claim “Vaccines help keep people from dying,” I am very much opposed to those who take the vaccine for COVID-19 and then don’t believe that it will work. If they believed that it will work, then they believe that they are protected against all those that do not take the vaccine. With all the false information out there, I really couldn’t say it the Vaccines are helping people stay alive or not. Wearing a mask has never been proven help prevent the spread of this virus. The CDC has changed directions many times and the FDA for more than 7 months this year did not sign off on the Vaccines – Making us all ‘lab rats’ in one giant test. If you unseat Councilman Daniels, will you run for office?
Regarding “Seat belts are mandatory too,” the reaction to the Covid vaccines and this “assault on our liberty and freedom” echoes back to when they were making seat belts mandatory. Lifesaving technology – but only for the driver and not the other people on the road. And this is something that we now cannot question and we pay more for our car for this option.
Regarding “Vaccine mandates violate Constitution,” I personally believe vaccine mandates and Vaccine passports are both a violation of the United States Constitution. If you want to make it happen, you must get both houses of Congress to pass a law and the president to sign it. Isn’t there something called the HIPAA law? I believe that it protects my medical privacy.

Good thing Daniels wasn’t around when polio vaccine was perfected
I do not understand why anyone can be so shortsighted as to oppose something so simple as getting a vaccine. These vaccines, per science not misinformation, are safe and protect ourselves and those around us from a deadly disease. It seems Bret Daniels has one, self imposed, purpose in city government and that is to cause as much dissection as possible.
I’m also disappointed that Genie Bruins is willing to support this disgusting stand. To keep the people safe in this city Bret Daniels needs to go. I’m very thankful he wasn’t around when the polio vaccine was perfected. I was. We weren’t asked and it never occurred to us to object. Wake up.

Don’t discriminate again un-jabbed
Can we agree to disagree? There is not any one answer that will make everyone happy. I have chosen not to get the jab. Due to health reasons it would not be safe for me. I also have friends that got the jab and still got Covid and are not dead. The jab will not stop you from getting the virus. I have seen too many die that took the jab.
My biggest fear is that so many do not realize what the mandatory regulations are leading to. We must stand strong and not give up our inalienable rights! I suppose Bret Daniels’ push to not have any discrimination against those un-jabbed. In cultural Marxism there is no room for descending opinions.
