    So you get rid of the cops who don’t follow orders, who feel they’re above the law, and who aren’t community minded. Win, win, win.

    Varvel is proud of how much worse Indiana is than Illinois in almost every respect.

    In tomorrow’s cartoon, Gary will draw about how awesome Indiana is for fueling all the gun violence in Chicago.

    They vowed to protect the public, and are now…infecting the public. Good riddance.

    “We WANT them infected!”

    Right, Varvel?

    .

    Indiana is 66% adults with at least on dose of vaccine, making them a leader in herd mentality.

    .

    And right on cue, The Messiah rewards Indiana’s Favorite Son: “Will no one rid me of this troublesome vice president?”

    I’m no lawyer but there is a little thing called the Constitution of the United States of America and it seems to me that vaccine mandates are unconstitutional.

    Is that really the kind of cop Indiana would want to hire; the kind of cop that is afraid of a life-saving shot? The kind of cop that disobeys orders? Or, the kind of cop that has no problem passing on a deadly virus?

    I see all troublesome cops’ examples are white. A subliminal message there Varvel?

    Funny how all the trolls on this page were anti-vax while Trump was in office, and now, how that has all changed under “Mandate Joe”. Hey, Joe! Mandate this: LET’S GO, BRANDON!

    This is a quote from the 22 page ruling:

    “The public interest is also served by maintaining our constitutional structure and maintaining the liberty of individuals to make intensely personal decisions according to their own convictions—even, or perhaps particularly, when those decisions frustrate government officials.”

    Chicago police are notorious for two things: corruption and thuggery. I feel for Indiana and am glad for Chicago.

    Odd thinking here.. we have folk who put on up to 60 pounds of protective gear “because it’s mandated”.. yet balk at getting a vaccination.

    I seem to remember that Chicago mobs often frequented Terre Haute Indiana. So, now, Chicago’s bad cops go to Indiana. Shades of the past.

    The vax mandate is REALLY going to help the job numbers. It is overreaching by the Federal Government.

    It will be interesting to observe if the change in the make-up of the Chicago Police increases or decreases the corruption in the city that allows all the murders.

    My brother survived the Covid-19 back in it’s earliest days. He refuses to have the vax because he says insufficient knowledge of long-range effects. What will it do to us individually four years down the road?It’s the only anti-vax objection I’ve seen or heard that has some validity.

    ‘CDC declined to update the numbers for five months’—The CDC Finally Reveals Its Estimate for How Many Americans Have ‘Natural Immunity’: 146.6 Million People

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has quietly acknowledged that far more people have natural immunity than was earlier reported. The CDC quietly acknowledged that a staggering 146.6 million people have been infected by the Sars-CoV-2 virus and have survived it.

    Most inflated of all are the 921,000 “estimated total deaths.” The CDC reports “Covid-related deaths,” and not deaths caused by Covid-19. That is because 94% of Covid-related deaths had serious underlying medical conditions, such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. While Covid-19 may have been a contributing causal factor to the timing of a patient’s death, the vast majority occurred in patients who were immunocompromised or elderly. The average age of Covid-related death in 2020 was slightly under life expectancy at 77 years old.

    These days, the number one killer of cops is covid-19. We make them wear body armor; why shouldn’t we make them get vaccinated as well?

    It will be a short line, the vast majority of police officers are vaccinated. They were able to get vaccinated as first responders when the vaccines were first rolled out. Covid19 was the leading cause of death of police officers last year. Which is why police officers with a brain got vaccinated as soon as they could.

    Let the few whiny scairdy cats quit and move to states I wouldn’t live in.

    Otherwise, if they can’t force them to get vaccinated, take away the the benefit for dying in the line of duty, that they have been giving. Should they die of Covid, with the vaccines available, they are no longer dying from Covid19 as an increased work risk as it was last year, but out of their own foolishness.

    I drive 20 miles to work every day. Never been involved in a significant auto accident. Yet I put on my seatbelt every time I enter the car.

    I work in law enforcement. I’m not a policeman, but I have regular contact with the general public in the courtroom and in my offices. Out of respect for the public I serve, my fellow workers, and for my own wellbeing, I am vaccinated. I get my Moderna booster next week.

    Why is this so hard?
