Owning/carrying a gun/ preparedness and the Covid vaccine

[R L Suehr]

The Mrs gets her first shot this week. Me, I'm in no rush.

That said I have it all figured out

The vaccines are just the dormant master virus laying in wait. They don't really do anything. Later this year they will dump the "activator" into reservoirs across the country. All who have gotten the vaccine drink the water, and the activator triggers the dormant master virus and poof all those who were vaccinated turn into zombies and we have population control. I just hope you all are the slow moving type zombie so you're easy to pick off. Them fast ones are too tough. LMAO!! OK I'm done

There are some here, that would jump on board with that theory.

Well, it does have more believable elements than "We're from the government, and we're here to help".

There's more evidence for the "zombie-creating vaccine" theory than there is for "Democrats love America and want to help American citizens".

I am going to take my vaccine by mail. They can mail me the vaccine and I will mail back the paperwork saying i am vaccinated. My health and safety is way too important to line up and wait for my turn at the vaccine line.

While this might be a more straight forward approach, I'm gonna sit back and wait and see what works best.

My you look good in aluminum foil, especially the hat.

Hmmmm.......So the OP posts vaccines are OK AFTER he got the vaccine? I wonder what would he have said before he got it.

That's the vintage Alka-Seltzer commercial.

"If you suffer from indigestion nothing works better than Alka-Seltzer". So I took their advice and took nothing and now I feel much better, thanks.

I've read thru all the posts, hopefully I didn't miss it, but was it ever mentioned that neither carrying a firearm, or getting a vaccine will make one safe?

Neither will make one safe, but the hope is that either will give one a fighting chance. YMMV.

Observations:

it's beyond hilarious to me how many people I know smirk and make fun of people for getting the vaccine or wearing masks; and yet carry guns; and at the same time talk about (often incorrect) mortality percentages; etc, while ignoring the fact that their own likelihood to ever have to need to defend their life or someone else's with a gun is probably even smaller than their chance of having a serious adverse reaction to the vaccine or their survival probability if they contract the virus. (Let alone the probability of them being successful in that encounter). Still, I don't shame them for their illogical inability to connect ideas.

I carry a gun because I want to be prepared for something I realistically don't think is going to happen. I pray it never does. I'm now integrating EDC medical into my routine as well for the same reason. (Another thing I find hilarious is how many people I know carry guns and don't train nearly enough with them, don't carry medical (if you get into a gun fight, how do you expect to stop the bleed?), etc.

If someone wants to wear a mask to prevent themselves from getting sick, or get a vaccine that they have an EXTREMMELY small likelihood of having an adverse reaction to, no matter what you believe the chance of them getting sick is, it really shouldn't matter to you- Anymore than it matters to someone who would mock you for carrying a gun that you probably have the same likelihood or less of needing.

I say this as someone who believes it's very, very important to carry a gun everyday, everywhere; and yet also realizes I'll probably never need it.

This is long, but the reason I wound up getting the vaccines

In ten years (the real test time for a vaccine), if you're not dead. I might get it, and that's a big might.
