If you send a hint about your email address-- first three letters, for example-- I can likely find it among my subscriber list.

PS: I wish you'd contact me directly - You seem to enjoy the dialogue, but I'm increasingly uncomfortable broadcasting this conversation to the world

The noose has been tightening on school vaccine mandates: many states have wiped out philosophical and religious exemptions.

Agree. It's really astounding, given the growing evidence that these don't work, and cause harm.

So for a poorer family objecting to vaccine mandates for their school children, the options are daunting and for them these mandates become oppressive.

Yes.

This flies in the face of the Jacobson decision (mandates should not be oppressive.)

Not exactly sure of your point here.

For wealthy families there's no real problem if they object to the mandates.

Not sure of your thinking here - If a school or employer

My opinion about the government's compelling interest in getting people vaccinated is that it should have no such interest, as this is/should be beyond the scope of the government. If we're to be vaccinated that we must be monitored for compliance, and the government has no business monitoring us for compliance.

Your idea of what the government "should" do differs from the fact that the government asserts such an interest.

Our government has opted to make a religion of vaccination, hasn't it?

More or less.

It's not really science. It's a belief system backed up by bits and pieces of science and history cobbled together to give the appearance of legitimacy.

Yes.

So the government really wants to have a compelling interest in supporting the religion of vaccination, and many people object to this religion and don't want it imposed on them.

It's not that the government "wants" to have a compelling interest - it asserts it does.

It's August 2023 and folks still can't accept the fact that Robert Malone is a Progressive Marxist who uses fear, threats and intimidation to shut down anyone who dares to question his record of performance or his "mistruths". Who made this bully the leader of a mostly Conservative MFM and what gives him the right to be hostile and scream at Mathew Crawford when Mathew refused to expose the name of his contact, the individual who gave Mathew information that was incriminating? Exposing the person's name would've been a definitive early demise for that individual, Mathew has made it very clear - no one seems to care while they continue to give Malone a pass. A Progressive who has made millions of dollars creating bioweapons that hurts humanity has fooled Conservatives into believing he's against the bioweapons he's helped create - he's masterfully employed 5GW while becoming a "leader" of 5GW.

What's it going to take for folks to wake up and accept that the tiny man with a humongous ego is everything that he criticizes others to be? He's always self projecting and yet highly educated folks pretend that he's a soft spoken man who is suddenly changing his demeanor because Peter Navarro might persuade him to support Trump🤦‍♀️he's bullied his way to a leadership position in the MFM with money from Steve Kirsch/The Unity Project while manipulating the real doctors who saved lives in 2020 & 2021 - Dr. Paul Alexander & others have mentioned it. Dr. Kory deserves to be a leader, he's earned his stripes - he was saving lives while sharing the protocols that he used. In 2020 he & Peter McCullough were at the US Congress fighting for us while Malone was at the DOD playing with DOMANE, the tech that brought us run death is near (Remdesivir).

It's OK to say what is obvious about Robert Malone, his junk yard dogs will continue to attack anyone who dares to criticize him - that's part of the psyop - but no one should bend the knee to these monsters. Silence is violence.

I see I neglected to put quotes around your original thoughts (interspersed with my comments below). That's just one more reason I don't like this mode of communication - I have limited control over the format.

I'm not sure you really understand that a "mandate" is *not* a forcible injection. It is *always" accompanied by an option (of working or going to school elsewhere, etc.). That's why the government can get away with "mandates" in most cases.

It helps if you get familiar with the essence of "strict scrutiny." Then you'll see that the courts *always" balance individual rights with government interests.

Jim - regarding your comment on Meryl Nass's blog post. You mentioned the need to overturn "the 1905 Jacobson decision that asserted that the state could mandate medical measures" That's a common misunderstanding. All Mass did was require EITHER a vaxx or pay a small fine. Very different.

I couldn't agree with you more.
