Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Rand Paul Calls on American Truckers to Rise Up and Fight for Freedom

Republican Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) is calling on American truckers across the country to rise up and protest against federal vaccine mandates.

I bet Democrats will go after Rand if protests take off.

Great. So shipping costs will skyrocket and the supply chain will further erode. Great for American commerce and consumers.

Dick move Paul.

I doubt you'd have been among the 56 that signed the Declaration of Independence thinking that way.

Lifting vaccine mandates would put more truckers back to work and ease the supply chain crisis.

Ummmm US truckers are largely exempt from the vaccine and testing mandate. This is a Canadian issue with their drivers and those who cross the border into Canada. So why is disrupting our transportation system helpful to anyone anywhere?

Our Founding Fathers sacrificed their fortunes and their lives to create this Republic and you're whining about increased prices.

You need to peddle this drivel to the Demonrat Underground.

Oh I see. So were supposed to fight everyone else's fight regardless of the cost to this nation.

Good news for the Ukrainian Army. They're busy looking for recruits. Let us know how all the works out.

Sounds like you're about to have a bad day.

They already do.

Yes, your convenience is far more important than your rights. Many are capable of running with scissors.

Vaccine mandates are anti-freedom, thus anti-American. If you allow a government official or bureaucrat tell you what you can and cannot put in your own body, they you're not free.

If you're a true American, then you would support any protest against the vaccine mandates.

Absolutely.

Instead of going down that road I want to read your reply to rte's post.

It’s worse than that when .gov tells you what YOU MUST put in your body, even if it’s against your will and beliefs.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but many if not most Americans HAVE been and continue to stand up against the vaccine mandates. You may have also noticed that many Blue States are finally realizing that there is a rising tide against them and are easing their state mandates.

The democrats have destroyed our economy over hysteria. Not sure why conservatives suddenly want to return the favor. But I never underestimate a politician's desire to commit political suicide.

Short term thinking will not solve a long term problem.

The same cross border restrictions apply to US truckers as to Canadian truckers. The rules were promulgated following an agreement between the US and Canadian dictatorships to implement vaccine requirements for drivers.

I haven’t sent my truck to Canada since, because I’m not going to even ASK if he’s vaccinated or not, since it’s none of ANYONE’s business but his.

Freedom is not free. You don’t sound like you deserve it.

The way I see it the Federal Government is suppose to represent the people. But since this covid crap started they seem like they want to be in control of our rights and freedom. That's not the way it works in America.
