It's got nothing to do with the risk

we've reached the point where I feel
like I need to draw a line. It's the
same for any other protest. An
environmental protestor chaining
themselves to a tree isn't doing it
because they think that this

they aren't doing it because they
think the loggers will throw up
their hands and give up, they're
doing it because this is the point
where enough was enough and they
needed to say "no more" - whether it
be effective or not.
By declining the vaccine I'm
saying that I belive so strongly
that you can not cross this line
that whatever increased risk I face
or whatever threats or sanctions or
bribes are offered to me to comply
are burdens worth standing up to.
These are my feelings, formed
from my life experience, make of
them what you will. I could be
mislead and be dead wrong but as it
stands now, that's where I landed. 23_
