It’s impossible to determine if this could be the kind of thing Ben Franklin was thinking about when he said, “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Interestingly, Franklin was a major proponent of vaccines, even those that were much much more dangerous than the ones we are talking about now.

You just never know what people are thinking about, do you?

Dawggone you both! You just can’t allow a guy to be on the fence on this one! Ben Franklin is the best I could do for common ground.

So nice of them to offer free general admission parking to all fans statewide.

Sorry.
But maybe we can all hate on ULL together?

Opposing a vaccine for oneself is quite different than mandating that OTHERS either take or not take the vaccine.
I took one, but it's none of my business if someone else takes one or not.

Already there.
But I also recognize that others may feel differently.

Would hate them if I could bring myself to care about them in the first place.

It'll sure work a lot better if more people do it.
I would argue that it might be your business in a number of contexts (like what you'd prefer for your literal business).

It’s one thing to oppose drunk driving for yourself. It’s totally something else to demand that others refrain from driving drunk.

Enjoy your lifetime subscription to COVID vaccines. I truly wish you the best.

Michael, I can’t express how serious I am when I tell you that I pray you’ll reconsider your position. I’ve known 4 or 5 guys like you who were fit, healthy, and dead set on not getting the vax. While they’ve all survived, 2 spent some serious hospital time. One is still in rehab.
This is a bad gamble.

Free parking at a ULL football game will probably inspire about as many new fans as free parking at the WNBA draft

Well, that is pretty weak, logic wise.
But, since the Mu variant is coming from Columbia, likely came into our country across our open border to the south, and has now shown up in 49 states, maybe you can go to Columbia and be their ElKaren to get them all in line. We certainly don't want to find ourselves in the position of closing our border to keep these things away!
