Yesterday I talked to my neighbor and found out that most of her adult kids aren't vaccinated. Sad, her husband has cancer and they are looking to operate and try to remove it and then he will start chemo.

I told her that if my kid wasn't vaccinated, he wouldn't be allowed inside my house because my first job is to protect my husband.

What's even sadder is that I talked to one of her kids and asked why she wasn't vaccinated.

She gave me the same ole song about how she wasn't sure about side effects and then went on some rant about vacinated people giving blood and people having the vaccine get into their blood and do some kind of harm.

I have come to realize that you just can't talk to these people. While you are explaining the facts, they are already thinking about another excuse.

I just told her that I'm sad she's not vaccinated and that she won't be allowed in my house and next time I'm wearing a mask around them cause I have to protect my husband.

And it's not that I'm worried he will get sick and die, it's the fact that mentally he can't handle being sick. Having dementia makes normal things so much harder to deal with.

Sad.

Politicians like Mo Brooks always speak in vague inflammatory buzz phrases — “I understand citizenry anger directed at dictatorial Socialism and its threat to liberty, freedom and the very fabric of American society.” Does anyone ever observe them offering specifics? What liberties and freedoms have they lost? They've lost NOTHING. I have never seen a group behave so threatened, so aggrieved in my long life. Yet, they're the ones guilty of seeking to rob people of the right to vote and free and fair elections. And seeking to deprive minorities of equal protection under the law.
