Snowflakes are 10 ft deep up there.

If they boycott, will anyone even notice or care?

 

[Rusty Strings]

This is a shocking revelation, why have we not already been discussing it??!!??

 

[Bassman]

Well that was an easy out for the university.

Wish AU had been so lucky with Gustav.

We should’ve insisted he get a breast reduction

This feels like piling on, but Gus was self-conscious about those flapjacks, so much that he wore an UA compression shirt.

Well for the people in the country that don't want the government to rule their lives. It is a fairly BIG DEAL. If not carry on.

But not self conscious enough to do a few pushups every now and then?

Federally approved vaccines have been mandated for staff and students at public institutions for many decades. Hee haw on brother. “Muh raghts and muh freedumbs”

Five total coaches how do you overcome that in the middle of a season

Two thoughts...

1) Grab BYU -3.5 if still available.

2) Losing a football coach over a mandate is one thing, but losing law enforcement officers (and hospital workers) will negatively affect communities in Washington State.

Those vaccines you speak of (polio, etc) keep your from getting or spreading the disease….Covid vaccines aren’t working like that.

Do they still have law enforcement there? I thought the bant it last year.

But that situation and those vaccines are T-TOTALLY different than this current situation. Those mandated vaccines were all based on tried and true, classical vaccine technology, (LAV and inactivated), that we have DECADES of usage data on across the complete life-cycle, and we can therefore pretty much guarantee scientifically that they are safe.

However, the new vaccines for COVID are based on relatively new technology, (especially the mRNA vaccines), that we only have data on from the immediate short-term, therefore we can NOT guarantee anything. If you can't pretty much guarantee things scientifically/medically, then you cannot mandate and force people to take on the associated risk.

It's amazing that folks can't understand this simple, but SIGNIFICANT difference. Of course, we all understand why they are trying to conflate normal vaccine data and behavior with these new ones, (in order to get as many as possible to take them in an attempt to help), but you can't trick people like that, or force them to take experimental things into their bodies. That has to be a personal choice/decision.

I was wondering if you had departed. I was getting ready to take on the "dispenser of hee haws" and "laughing Shaq gifs"

Great logical rebuttal there @stutsman23. You always offer such cogent counter-arguments that expose the flaws in the arguments you disagree with, (LOL!).

Huh? I didn't argue anything, but sorry if I rustled you by laughing at your opening statement. I didn't feel the need to read past "tried and true"

 

[Rusty Strings]

I got mine voluntarily as well but mandating that someone get one or lose their job is a bridge too far.

 

[au4life_rz]

You well know I'm not rustled at all. Just pointed out the complete foolishness of those who constantly laugh things off, but don't have a sangle shred of substance to debunk the argument they are laughing at, (LOL!).

It's sort of a HUGE clue that they don't have anything at all to back up their opinions on the topic, or they'd have tried to make an actual point.

If you haven't realized, these debates on the bunker achieve absolutely nothing. But keep fighting the good fight and attacking that dreaded "noble lie"

 

[nighthawk004]

I think all the stupid people that won't get vaccinated should be exiled, so in my America he would have been worse than fired.

You sure do scream LOL!!! a lot for someone who isn't rustled. Hope you have a great day too. WDE bruh

it's impossible for my brain to understand someone not wanting to be protected against a deadly virus more than keeping their job. it's grandstanding

 

[au4life_rz]

You don't think there are any intelligent folks who feel that their personal risk/reward ratio regarding taking these new/novel vaccines, falls in favor of them not taking it?

Or, do you feel that anyone who doesn't agree with you on any number of topics should be exiled, jailed, flogged, lose their jobs etc.??? Where does one man's opinion trump the rights of another? I'd love to hear your general argument as to why the risk/reward ratio for EVERYONE indicates they should take any new drug or procedure. You or I may decide that we feel the reward is greater than the risks, but should I really force my opinion on someone else given that the vaccines are so new???

If we wanted everyone to take them, and/or mandate them, we should have simply developed another option based on the tried and true classical vaccine technology, and then there wouldn't be much debate at all, (but you should ask yourself why they won't do this). There are some very intelligent, knowledgeable, and deep perspective folks who may want to wait until more data is available, and that doesn't make them a pariah or idiot.

I knew I could count on you for a tremendously bad take.

That's fine and it's your right to feel that way. How are they effecting you though?

 

[au4life_rz]

Not necessarily. There are several VERY valid reasons that some people with lower risk thresholds NEVER guinea-pig new drugs. Please see my previous post.

 

[tigers3014]

they don't affect me because I don't feel bad for them if they get fired 🤷‍♂️

So, laughing really hard = russelage, in your book. Got it. 😄 😁 😁

It's what inspired you to respond to me in the first place... obviously it got you a bit triggered. Anyway, keep on fighting, I'm sure today's the day yore ramblings will get through to the board.

 

[Rusty Strings]

That's a shit stupid attempt at a troll. If you can't explain how someone not being vaccinated effects you why would you care if they are vaccinated or not?

My two cents on the topic has always resonated with those who are intelligent, objective and fair. The Bunker is the only board where a few dullard idiots haven't received the simple message. It's gone over well on every other board around the country.

Thanks for your encouragement, and you can bet I'll continue to offer my humble two cents where it may make a difference. Again, have a great day.
