Judge rules on jurors vaccinated status in his court.

[Swede]

It is the Court’s belief that the vast majority of the unvaccinated adults are uninformed and irrational, or—less charitably—selfish and unpatriotic.

The Court believes that these individuals have given a distorted meaning to the COVID-19 vaccine, rather than recognize the vaccine for what it is—an effective and safe means of minimizing transmission and illness.

Whether uninformed and irrational or selfish and unpatriotic, no citizen is excused from considering their obligation to the health and well-being of their community. Else, the health, welfare, and safety of society would be subordinated to a substantial minority.

[Faux pas]

1. YES!

[FBaggins]

2. No... he didn't

He clearly wanted to rule that way, but recognized that he would probably be overturned if he did... so he postponed the trial date by a few months.

12. Judges, as a rule, are the worlds best orators.

And in a court of real law, facts really do matter. That’s also in the law.

5. This should be on billboards

"No citizen is excused from considering their obligation to the health and well-being of their community."
Or something similar that gets the message out that anti-vaxers are unpatriotic.

fascist assholes to spread a deadly virus angers the hell out of me!

9. An Obama judge, of course.

"Robert N. Scola, Jr. is federal judge on the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. He joined the court in 2011 after a nomination from Barack Obama. Prior to nomination, he was a Family Division judge of the Eleventh Circuit of Florida."

11. Very carefully chosen words, like most judges.

No one should be able to question exactly what he means by that.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

13. It IS crystal clear sir?? Is there another meaning other than: "Get Your Facts Straight, Stupid".

Only interpretation I see.

The anti-Science idiots need a good dressing down from time to time in a real courtroom so when they back on Twitter they can spread the news…Science is factual, the rest is bs.

The Law is majestic, yes?
