Just the suggestion that vaccines could be mandatory is the part that is too much for me.

I am not an anti-vaxxer. I am an ex soldier that has had so many vaccines it's not funny, but I agreed to those terms. I signed up for service.

I've long known that the only real 'property' I have is my body. It is the only thing that cannot be taken away and that I have from life to death. To even suggest that I could be forced to inject something suggests that I have no freedom of choice what-so-ever. That means that I am property of and a slave to the state.

The other things I have conceded to suck, but they are trade offs. Work requires me to wear a mask -- I reluctantly agree to those terms since they pay me, so I'll add a mask to my uniform when I am at work. Stores are forced by the government to deny me service if I don't wear a mask, or they'll face a bigger fine than I am spending. So I comply there too. I wear a small bit of their compliance uniform for the trade off that I can get what I need. But that mask comes off. It is not something injected in my body that I can not remove or only temporary.

If they had never suggested that I am a slave and don't have a say in what gets injected in me, I might have even decided to get this vaccine. But not anymore. Now I am aware that I am nowhere near as free as I thought I was.

I don't know how this is going to end, but this is not looking good. I hear your sentiment though. I've been awake most of the night with similar thoughts racing through my head.
