  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

The inmates are running the asylum after all.

With one coronavirus vaccine approved in the U.S. (and a second approval likely coming soon), there’s a logistical challenge in determining who to give the vaccine to first. It’ll take months before everyone who wants one can take one, and common sense would suggest those most venerable to the virus (the elderly and those with preexisting conditions) getting treated first. For perspective, the coronavirus death rate for those under the age of 19 is only about 1 in 33,000, but it’s 1 in 18 for those above age 70.

But apparently in today’s day and age, that’s a controversial statement because the elderly don’t have the preferred skin complexion while also being the most venerable to a deadly virus.

As Lee Fang, a right-of-woke journalist on the political left noticed, the CDC’s guidelines for vaccine priority put first 87 million non-healthcare “essential workers” ahead of the elderly…. because the elderly are too white. Fortunately the guidelines are nonbinding – but many will still obey them regardless.

The CDC can "recommend", but states make their own decisions. So uncrazy states can make rational decisions while crazy states can make PC-BS decisions.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

    • I try my best ...

I agree! Test it out on the minorities first. No problem with that.
Tuskegee all over again. Give them all the shots first...hell yes.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

A desired result of a colorblind society has turned oppositely ugly the past few years. 

My spent dollars will reflect accordingly.

  • WE are NOT ok!
One thing is for certain, the CDC, the WHO, Fauci and the DEM party cannot be trusted.

Who's to say which group they want to eliminate?  Yes, I do see this vaccine as a way to control segments of the population.  We just don't know which segments they want to get rid of.

Thinking that they want to get rid of minorities is foolish, considering that they've allowed BLM and Antifa to continue rioting and making demands.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

That's exactly what it is. Sure, let's try an experimental, untested drug on the Negroes. This is pathetic.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
We are definitely headed to life as depicted in Soylent Green.  And if we allow the USA to be flooded with people from elsewhere, that day is coming even faster.

Charlton Heston made some odd movies at the time he did them, but they are having more relevance now that it appears it is not so far fetched.

I was thinking this could end like Chuck's movie..."Omega Man"
