Everyone has their priorities, it seems.

Apparently, believing the QAnonsense about vaccines is more important than visiting his own daughter in the hospital, as she battles a serious illness for more than half a year.

It would be funny if it wasn’t so tragic.

He has his freedom to choose. People complain about losing their freedom, but this is incorrect. What they are really complaining about is not having freedom from the consequences of free choice. Hospitals and care homes have plenty of vulnerable people to disease. Restrictions are normal, even before the pandemic, to protect them from various infectious disease's.

Not just hospitals. My daughter’s anti-vax and anti-mask veterinarian boss just got everyone in his office sick. She literally sent me pics of some pups that were delivered by cesarean yesterday:

The puppies and mom are still in the now understaffed clinic. There are about a thousand unintended and underdiscussed problems that have arisen from these assholes’ refusal to do the right thing. It’s outrageous, and yet, here we are.

Canadian Police Start Arresting Trucker Protesters In Ottawa

OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — Police began arresting protesters Friday in a bid to break the three-week siege of Canada’s capital by truckers angry over the country’s COVID-19 restrictions.

Some protesters surrendered and were taken into custody, police said. Some were seen being led away in handcuffs.

Police made their first move to take break up the traffic-snarling occupation late Thursday with the arrest of two protest leaders. They also sealed off much of the downtown area to outsiders to prevent them from coming to the aid of the self-styled Freedom Convoy protesters.

The capital represented the movement’s last stronghold after three weeks of demonstrations and blockades that shut down border crossings into the U.S., caused economic damage to both countries and created a political crisis for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

You can see why Binger is so impressed, these people are about as down-and-out as they come.

If they really do represent all of us as Binger said, then humanity should do nature a favor and blow itself up. Best case is bring in the Marshal because people like this need some outside help.

Good people do good things despite you, Gadianton. They understand that you hate them.

This is the woman that Trudeau's Hanoverian's trampled today. I can see why you hate her with all your damned guts, Gadianton. But more, I can see why you are so damned afraid.
