I think the last two categories should have their guns taken away ASAP, it seems the military in the US needs to vet it’s ranks for political extremists and some absolute bonkers people.
@kevcvs57 saidMy brother had covid, was in the ICU because he is diabetic and could not take anti-viral medications that otherwise would have been helpful. Less than 1 month after he was released from the hospital I heard he was given the mRNA vaccine. Did he need it?

There is supposedly a shortage of vaccines and they gave one to my brother soon after recovering. If there is a shortage of vaccines why are they pushing it on people that do not need it instead of reserving them for people that do?
I suspect it is an artificially created shortage. People are more likely to want something that is in short supply. If they are available to everyone it will become apparent how many people do not want the vaccine. Inversely, people would not want them.
If you want as many people to willingly take the vaccine as possible you don't supply the demand. Pretty simple.
@mott-the-hoople saidGot 2 impeachments out of that vetting.
the democrats...for four fukin years.
So it wasn't a total waste.
The justice system can have at him now.

Some reasons for vaccine reluctance venture into the ridiculous.
