- 'GOP lawmakers are moving to force businesses in their states to serve the unvaccinated, claiming it as a civil right.' MSN/Bus. Insider, July 12, 2021. -Ed.

Republicans are rallying to protect the rights of unvaccinated people even as COVID-19 infections are spiking within that same population across the U.S. Several state GOP lawmakers are proposing legislation that would make it illegal to "discriminate" against unvaccinated individuals, using similar protections as those applied on the basis of gender, race, and religion.

These bills aim to prohibit the public and private sector from denying goods and services to unvaccinated people. At least one state, Montana, has signed such a bill into law. There, businesses such as grocery stores and restaurants are not allowed to refuse customers based on their vaccination status. Similarly, employers are forbidden from refusing to hire someone based on whether they've been vaccinated, per Axios.

Other GOP-led states have enacted similar measures. In Alabama, schools and colleges are not allowed to require vaccines, Axios reported. The state government and private companies are also not permitted to refuse services to people who are not yet vaccinated.

These state efforts represent yet another resistance to coronavirus vaccinations as the federal government continues its push to encourage people to get the shot. Earlier this year, several Republican governors enacted bans on so-called vaccine passport requirements, which would offer proof of an individual's vaccination status...

3. This is truly OBSCENE...... how dare they force folks working in a grocery store to put up with

whiny anti-vaxxers???

Unbelievable.............

[magicarpet]

4. So ,... In this instance a person has a right to determine what is best for their OWN bodies,....

.... But in the case of pregnancy/abortion it is the government's decision,... The churche's decision,... but not the patient's or their doctor's decision.

Hypocrisy much ?

[Walleye]

5. Republicans doing everything they can to throw a monkey wrench into the works.

That’s the simple explanation for everything they’re doing. They don’t really care about freedom or human rights

[Lovie777]

11. And don't care who gets hurt or die ..

[Botany]

6. Stupid on the hoof ... does the GOP/Fox News want the disease to spread and kill people ...

... because that is their political calculus?

[2naSalit]

9. Seems that way.

It's like they think they are bringing on their self fulfilling prophecy if the rapture which requires that everyone but them has to die. I think they have it backwards, though.

[TheBlackAdder]

13. Yes. They want to change the image of DOCTOR DEATH from Trump to Biden.

[appalachiablue]

23. + 1 Morte, en mass

[LakeArenal]

8. THEY won't make a cake for a gay person

But other store owners should have no choice???

[2naSalit]

10. +1

[TheBlackAdder]

12. Sounds like something Rand Paul would object to. Oh, that's right he's the Senate's COVID-19 Vector.

[TheBlackAdder]

14. Zappa: Movin to Montana soon. Gonna get the Delta hematozoon.

[LaMouffette]

18. Love the nod to Zappa! And if you are a Democrat, PLEASE DO move to Montana!

Our beautiful state needs you.

[PortTack]

15. Why is it okay for one side to push their personal beliefs on the vaccinated, yet the vaccinated

Can’t do the same? Would like to see this challenged in the high courts

[sanatanadharma]

16. Everybody is free to choose sickness and death...

Everybody is free to choose sickness and death. Nobody has the freedom to pass sickness and death onto others.

Bad choosers are not a protected class. The herd has more rights than herd individuals; it is just science.

[Botany]

19. We don't have wards filled with kids in iron lungs anymore .... vaccines work

I'm to the point with the selfish anti science/public health mother fuckers
that if they want to die I'm fine with that.

[msongs]

17. those banners look expen$ive. wonder who paid for them nt

[Solly Mack]

20. They support a doctor refusing to treat a patient but you must serve that hamburger to everyone?

They support a health care worker refusing to treat or perform a treatment on someone they disapprove of (emotional/faith-based) but they demand people forget science/logic/reason and serve someone a hamburger regardless of the dangers the unvaccinated pose for everyone?

[appalachiablue]

21. It's hateful, dangerous and hypocritical

as hell.

We're a very dysfunctional, sick country now in many ways all due to the pathological selfish aims of so many corrupt, twisted power mongers and their lunatic followers.

I wonder just how much crazier it can get when I see news like this..

[Solly Mack]

22. It can get crazier. Scary thought but I think they'll keep pushing as long as they can get away with

it. No matter how it harms the country and its people.

I agree. We are a sick, dysfunctional country.

[appalachiablue]

24. Yes, it can get much worse, and they

are really driven in their anti-govt., anti- democracy 'freedom cause' for 40 years or more actually.

So much of it is motivated by pure greed as has been the case for thousands of years, if only the manipulated rubes could figure out what's going on, or learn about demagogues, dictators and authoritarian rule. Time is running out.

Given the state of our current media and education system, and how dire things are in the socio-political arena, an 'awakening' in many looks unlikely, sorry to say. If the pandemic and climate disaster haven't opened their eyes what will.

Around 5-6 years ago I sensed this direction, the road to fascism and tried to warn several relatives without success. They're very sharp, but have dropped following a lot of serious news of late except for the obvious stuff due to relationships, moves and health matters.

I'll give it one or two more attempts, supported by pertinent articles and see what happens. It's the young I'm most concerned about, for good reason. Hang in there..

25. This will just serve as a precedent to respect Zombie's rights....

[Timothy Goodwin]

27. More Like Civil Rights Abuse

By using the United States Constitution in such an abusive manner to lead citizens astray and directly into harm's way and perhaps even death is not just unethical but is unconstitutional on its face legally and a crime against humanity on a wholesale basis. The people misleading the citizens of America know better and are using the virus for political gain at the expense of the death of thousands. What kind of monster leads people intentionally into death and disease for monetary gain and political power? It is an abomination, to say the least.
