Dozens of anti-vaccination activists and right-wing protesters blocked the entrance of Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon as hundreds of people waited in line for the coronavirus vaccine, stalling the queue of cars and prompting the the Los Angeles Fire Department to close the mass vaccination site around 2 p.m. Authorities reopened the site around 3 p.m. The stadium shifted from providing COVID-19 tests to vaccination appointments roughly three weeks ago. German Jaquez, a man in line for an appointment that was canceled, told The Los Angeles Times that the protesters were telling drivers the coronavirus pandemic was not real and that the vaccine was the real danger. Video showed demonstrators holding signs that read COVID=SCAM and Tell Bill Gates to vaccinate himself. (Gates has vaccinated himself on camera.) According to one reporter on the scene, the organizer of the event referred to Bill Gates, a frequent target of anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, as a satanic pedophile eugenicist.

Like my response to the anti-choice people: if you don't believe in abortion, then don't have one.

(5,127 posts)Same goes for gay marriage. If you are against gay marriage, don't have one.
There are a number of things that I am against or dislike, I just don't partake of those things. Its really quite simple. I don't watch Fox News, I don't smoke weed, I don't have threesomes.
Not judging anyone that does the above. Well,the Fox News watchers, I do judge.

And the anti-maskers should have the shit beat out of them by law enforcement if they are ever caught in a public place without a mask. Fuck them and their fucking alleged rights, because my rights are real and critical to my health!.. Put their bloody mugs on the media outlets for all to see how stupid they were!
