Unvaccinated options

LOL! I have the same opinion but from the other side....no use arguing with ghost.

With all due respect, which I almost always would have for a contentious objector, I just cant fathom that you would quit a job as a Boeing Captain over a vaccine requirement. I understand that passions are high and we all need to stand up for our beliefs, but to give up a job like this in a society where everything is mandated? You're going to fall on your sword over this ONE thing when the government already mandates that you: Register your car and pay taxes, register yourself and be licensed to drive. Pay federal and state taxes. Educate your kids, dont steal (etc etc on all of the laws). Hell the government even mandates that you go have a doctors exam every 6 months! Thats a serious infringement on liberty. I could go on and on. Without getting political, I wonder if this one mandate is becoming such a rallying cry simply because its coming from a Democrat in the White House in a time of unprecedented national political division.
I knew of a guy (disclaimer: details maybe not exact) years ago who was a sim instructor making upward of 250k. He was anti government and anti tax. He evaded paying taxes for years until Uncle Sam caught up with him. Rather than paying back taxes and settling, he fled during his court proceedings and was on the lam for several years. He was eventually caught and was living in someones basement working incognito in the service industry. Spent some time in jail and doesnt have a pot to **** in. I just dont get that.
Living well is the best defense. The vaccines may or may not be incredibly effective but the dangers are minuscule compared to Covid. I know of no one who has even had a serious complication. I know of a half dozen people who either died or almost died from Covid. I'd seriously consider this decision. You have 13 years left to make buttloads of money and retire a millionaire. Or you can throw it all away over the latest in a lifetime worth of mandates that you have been, and will continue to live under for the rest of your life. Seems like a rethink is seriously in order to me...
Good luck either way.

If they can mandate what goes into your body, then they can mandate what comes out too.
I guess that whole right to be secure in your person and effects from unreasonable government intrusion kinda missed you.

There is a huge difference between mandating they register a car, get a drivers or pilots license, hold certifications, get a flight physical. and injecting drugs into your body.

no it did not miss me. I get the premise just fine. Perhaps my point was missed. You live in a world of mandates including vaccine mandates. You always have and for the time being you
will certainly continue.
to decide to throw away your career over this particular intrusion into your personal freedoms seems suspect to me.
As I said before, If that’s what the OP really wants ( or anyone else), by all means knock yourselves out.

Beats me. But it’s a free site. You get exactly what you pay for. Seems to me if you’re saying things they don’t like they can invite you to take it outside. Now if you were paying for the service, that might be different.

No he just realizes that if the Mods here want to censor the lies and conspiracy theories they see as toxic there is nothing you can do about it, it’s a free private message board. I don’t understand what is so hard for people to understand, Freedom of speech protects your right to criticize your government without fear of punishment from your Government. A private message board like this does not fall under any of that.

We sit in the very angry and vitriolic 3rd inning and you and the mods think they have the 9th inning figured out.
You have no clue of the long term side effect of covid recovery or the vaccine. But if you question it……you’re a liar, conspiracy theory nut and a liability to society.
I’m waiting till Boe Jiden mandates anal plugs to prevent covid spread. How hardy to the fight will you and your comrade brethren be to intake your duty to society?
