Sorry for the lack of posting lately, been busy, too busy for a man my age. LOL The fact is my computer was in the shop for a much-needed health checkup. All’s well now and am back. While there is so much going on in the new world order and in our beloved country, I find today’s post to be of import to many. To be upfront and honest, as I always try to be, I had my first vaccine shot (Pfizer and Moderna type) two weeks ago with no side effects at all, and will get my second in two weeks. So, the decision is all yours. Good luck!
Meanwhile our move towards a Socialist third world sh*t hole continues at a fast pace supported by the MSM, the rich and famous, and everyone else who stands to benefit from such a move. Of course, you and I do not stand a chance of gaining anything from it. I see in my area gasoline has already risen $0.40 per gallon. My uneducated guess is it will cross the $3.00 mark before summer is out.
Meanwhile, I await my $1,200 stimulus check to arrive, and must decide what I shall do with it. Any suggestions? Have you read what is included in the trillion dollar stimulus package? I suggest you do so. I had to actually search for something that had anything to do with COVID. And how about the nine GOP senators who crossed the aisle and voted to impeach {President Trump? I wonder what their constituents think about that? Oh well, have a great day and it’s good to be back! Semper Fi Devil Dogs!
Most COVID-19 cases have had mild symptoms and despite an average mortality rate north of 75 years and a 99.6% survival level, vaccination is a must. The virus’ ability to infect political tyrants more concerned with their “great reset” than Constitutional rights continues to metastasize.
The hype and fear campaign continues unabated despite a thousand-fold risk difference between young and old. To “flatten the curve,” lockdowns, masks and social distancing went vogue and those who stray are shamed and ridiculed.
None of this is a panacea.
Neither is a vaccine.
A Gallup poll says 40% are unwilling to vaccinate and unlikely to change their minds. A Kaiser Family Foundation report said nearly one-third of hospital staff “would not get vaccinated.” Over half of the members of New York’s Uniformed Firefighters Association would also refuse.
The reasons are legion with unknown side effects, genome manipulation, and high-tech chip branding leading the charge. The British government warned pregnant women not to vaccinate because there is “no or limited data on the effects to the child and to fertility.” The CDC agrees, “… only limited data are available on the safety of COVID-19 vaccines administered during pregnancy.” Are long-term infertility issues in a Western world with already declining birthrates just another function of the great reset?
Other reports say the Moderna, and Pfizer vaccines could cause blood clots, brain inflammation and heart attacks and its effects on compromised immune systems remain suspect. Despite a plethora of concerns, the vaccine received “emergency authorization” from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Even smokers still have the right to smoke despite the known dangers. What is the real motivation for attempting to vaccinate millions of healthy people?
No need to fear because the vaccine success rate increased from 80% to 95% after the numbers were run by Dominion and any chip implant will be a Spicy Nacho Dorito.
Sarcasm aside, concerns about the vaccine’s safety and ethics are understandable considering its unprecedented development and distribution that normally would take years. Were cells from aborted babies used in its development and what procedures were circumvented to get it to the market so quickly?
The practice of medicine has been lobbied with Uncle Sam governing nearly two-thirds of healthcare. It is evident that since COVID began, a simple, cost-effective solution would never be allowed. When science is politicized, we all lose as the medical malpractice of the pandemic will continue, especially when the only medical opinion permitted is Uncle Sam’s.
The Great Barrington Declaration, that can be found online, has been signed by over 55,000 medical and public health scientists. They have affirmed that due to the relatively mild hazard of COVID-19 to the vast majority, “those who are at minimal risk” should be permitted “to live their lives normally [and] build up (herd) immunity to the virus.”
Research Dr. Michael Yeadon with over 30 years with Pfizer said in LifeSite news: “There is absolutely no need for vaccines to extinguish the pandemic. You do not vaccinate people who aren’t at risk. You also don’t set about planning to vaccinate millions of fit and healthy people with a vaccine that hasn’t been extensively tested on human subjects.”
Yeadon underscored 30 to 40% had T-cell immunity prior to the virus, and with nearly 30% having already been infected means we have reached the 65 to 72% level of herd immunity and that “the pandemic is effectively over.”
Dr. Joseph Meaney, president of the National Catholic Bioethics Center said since long-term effects remain unknown due to the lack of extended testing, coercion to vaccinate is “ethically unacceptable.”
The resolve that vaccination is somehow a social responsibility is not a self-evident truth. No matter how noble, it is limited. As immunity builds, the risk of infection drops. Herd immunity certainly fits as we stampede into hysteria too easily. The ends do not justify immoral or unethical means.
A dishonest press and rampant censorship by social media regarding the inexpensive, safe and effective therapies like ivermectin, colchicine, fluvoxamine and hydroxychloroquine could have prevented many from dying.
The cure should never be more invasive than the disease.
When a vaccine to protect us from Leftism is developed, I will consider.

The battle is on, my Colonel. We need to be smart and true. C sends
Right on sir, glad to be standing together again! Memories!
To add to the conversation, there has been speculation that Hank Aaron’s death is related to the vaccine having succumbed two weeks after receiving the shot.
I work with a man in his mid-50s who was healthy when he received his first vaccination, but a day after receiving his second, he contracted a 102* fever…Coincidence?
There are other stories related, provided you look hard enough. More questions than answers linger.
But what has NOT been answered is why are we inoculating healthy people to a virus with a ~ 1% fatality rate???
Agree GM, why are we not prioritizing the vaccine for folks like me 80 years having had open heart surgery. That is what is being done here in FL. I guess we have one of the few Governors who has his head screwed on correctly.
Welcome back Col.
Don’t think I ever told you this,but Dennis Falvey and I were good friends, we met in Echo Co. 3rd Recon and then he extended as I had done a few mos. before and we both wound up in S2, briefing and debriefing teams. He demonstrated his skills learned with the Silent Drill Plt. with a captured M 1. Truly amazing.

OMG, Dennis Falvey, talk about a ghost from the past. He was my guidon bearer for battle color ceremonies and parades! Loved the guy, used to keep me straight and in the right position! LOL. We appeared on the cover of the August 1968 Leatherneck Magazine. I have it hanging on my wall. Great Marine!!! Are you in touch with him by chance????
Spot on Jim. And nope I will pass on the vaccine, I’ve made it through the year fairly healthy except for the unexpected over serving of a few cocktails here and there. My guess is $1200 in some sort of self defense that goes boom… Semper Fi all stay safe and peace.
DIfferent subject, but I was floored as I read AOC state that the problems in Texas come because of a lack of investment in green energy. The reality, is that 23% of the energy needs of DFW come from the wind turbines between FW and Midland. Turbines that froze and stopped running within 2 days of the record freeze. What little energy we have been getting is from RELIABLE fossil fuel. Not that I expect her or her ilk to know what they are talking about, but MY GOD, get a clue!?!?
LOL, Great point Carl. AOC is still trying to learn how to spell fossil.
