Stand Your Ground
Dear Editor,
The following dialogue was copied from Facebook but it might happen in a real time conversation somewhere soon.
– Hello.
– Hi, table for two, please.
– Sure, and your name?
– Cody.
– Great. And do you and your guest have your vaccination cards?
– Hmmm, well first, can you tell us who our server will be?
– Um, looks like Brad will be your server tonight.
– Great. Can you show us Brad’s vaccination card?
– Um …
– And also, can you provide me with proof that Brad is not a carrier of HIV, hepatitis A or B, or any other communicable diseases? Same for you and the kitchen staff.
– Um …
– Also, we would prefer not to be served by someone who is on or uses recreational drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, meth, fentanyl, etc., so if you could provide us with Brad’s most recent tox screen, that would be great. Matter of fact, imma need to see all of your employees’ medical history.
– Um … Let me get the manager for you.
– That would be great, thanks. Make sure they have their vax card and medical records please.
Here’s the thing, nobody needs restaurants, or other extraneous places. But they need us. Start standing your ground.
Lynn Henson
Spot on.
Hear, hear! Well said, Lynn!
Great letter Lynn!!!
Lynn Hinson…. Your post reminded me of the advice on eating elephants. You can eat an elephant one bite at a time. You can also submit to tyranny and lose you liberty one step at a time. We need to jealously guard our liberty or we may slowly lose more of it over time.
Lynn Henson ,, perfect letter. Thanks
Lynn, you are spot on.
What restaurant in North Carolina is requiring proof of vaccination? I can’t believe it has gotten so bad as to require proof just to sit down at a restaurant. Would they accept your business if you have a mask on?
None that I have visited. Most don’t even require a mask anymore. Just blowhards making noise as most right wingers do.
It bugs me that Great Clips barber shops aren’t allowed to answer whether employees are vaccinated against Covid. After all, barbers are literally “in your face” when they cut your hair. On my last visit, I sat down in a Great Clips barber’s chair without asking until she had begun cutting my hair and the barber said that she had not been vaccinated. I started to walk out but decided to just always ask before returning to a Great Clips location. Now they say over the phone that they are not allowed to answer as to whether their employees have been vaccinated or not. I have found a new barber who assured me that he had had the Covid vaccine. I contrast today’s situation when so many people refuse to get the Covid vaccine to our earlier success battling Polio. Maybe we were more patriotic in those days – or just smarter. I don’t remember hearing anybody question whether they would get the Polio vaccine. Are there really that many ignorant Americans?
@Jim, you ask, “Are there really that many ignorant Americans?” Do you mean besides yourself? And since when is it unpatriotic to resist tyranny and defy unlawful mandates? If you want to live in fear, have at it. Count me out.
Good post Lynn. Time for the rest of our country to quit being sheep.
YES!!!
Finally someone else who sees what has been so obvious. Finally, someone else who is prepared to fight fire with fire. I just hope she owns a fire suit.
Here is how this stupid fight will go:
– I can assure you that all our staff are required to be vaccinated. However, we do not screen for HIV etc.. .
– well I demand to know if I am going to eat here!
– Understood. Have a great night. Next please!
You all are a bunch of Karens. Lol
And you are a genius in your own mind. Lol.
As it has been said before chris your are a racist moron. Start the New Year off right for the rest of us and buy a plane ticket somewhere
My favorite two nutters with nothing but childish name calling. Your ignorance and hateful comments give me such great purpose here.
So “Chris The Blowhard” calls us a bunch of Karens and then complains about name calling, when the obloquy is returned.
This is as crystal clear an example of hypocrisy as you will ever see.
But then, Chris is a Leftist, so hypocrisy is expected.
Amen ..Austin Morris truth be told.
Quotes from Chris:
“You all are a bunch of Karens. Lol”
“My favorite two nutters”
“…nothing but childish name calling.” (This is where he is accusing others of childish name calling, clearly not including himself.)
Do we see the hypocrisy yet?
I certainly do enjoy name calling but I always include a justification in my comments. Not just name calling without clarifying why. Most responses when I provide personal insight are responded to with only call me some silly name but no real retort.
Kinda the right wing jam I guess. But you guys be you!
Lynn – Fantastic letter!
Veddy gud!
