Dear Editor,

Re: [Letter to the Editor, Protests are tantrums, 91原创 Advance Times, Sept. 16]

Sonja Dutchyshen鈥檚 comment 鈥� 鈥淧lease don鈥檛 think of it as taking your rights away; think of it as giving everyone the right to live鈥� is an oxy-moron.

Yes, Sonja, everyone has the right to live, but not at the cost of other people鈥檚 rights. Every person is responsible for their own well-being and to take the necessary precautions they feel is right for them 鈥� not this current mandate of 鈥渄o it or else鈥�.鈥� threats.

The new buzz words for 2021 is 鈥渦nvaccinated鈥� and 鈥渧accinated.鈥�

In case you don鈥檛 see it, the government is dividing the people, and instilling hatred and finger-pointing. You have jumped in with both feet. If you never grew up under a communist or dictatorship regime, you would not have the ability to see the parallel that is going on with mandated vaccines.

Instead, people who have lived their whole lives in a 鈥渇ree country鈥� jump on the bandwagon of the government鈥檚 mandate in order to reclaim 鈥渢heir right鈥� to get their lives back and are more than willing to give up some freedoms to do so. Lesson learned for those without understanding: Once you give up a freedom; it never comes back. It鈥檚 gone forever, Sonja.

It starts small and continues to grow in order to gain the control over the masses and inflict their governance.

The demonstrators are not throwing a temper tantrum, Sonja 鈥� they are people who are voicing their rights against a mandate that will become more insidious over time.

It won鈥檛 end with two vaccination requirements, and we have already moved into 鈥渟how me your passport鈥� in order to enter certain businesses.

These demonstrators are voicing the rights for all people to decide and not have to 鈥渟how their papers鈥� in order to move about freely.

They are trying to 鈥渇ix the stupid.鈥�
