Commentors are solely responsible for the opinions they express and the accuracy of the information they provide. Users who violate these standards may lose their privileges on TucsonSentinel.com.
Sentinel editors can't read every comment. Trolls, spammers and other troublemakers can slide under the bridge. We rely on you to help maintain a healthy conversation - more than likely, you're reading these comments before the editors.

Bottom line, don't be a jerk.

Well, obviously this is unenforcable. With the delta variant on the rise and gamma and lambda and infinite “rapid spontaneous mutation” variants, some modeling suggests that herd immunity, which is to say a virus transmission rate of less than 1.0 person per person infected, is not attainable below 83% vaccinated with delta, and other strains are considerably more contagious.
Let’s get this down on record right now. This is a Mithraist conspiracy attached to a likely larger Abrahamist conspiracy to cause YET ANOTHER apocalypse. Ducey’s right in fetid inner core of this utterly rotten Capital Crime thing, and nobody’s fooled. Nobody was ever fool. No journalist, no academic, no politician is fooled. The gig was up decades ago, and no more. No more. We’re done with this. Setup barricades between Phoenix and here if you must and sharpshooters to take down all Nazi traitors, but no more of this farcical staged hard right fascist occupation of low-rent poopheads. Their authority is illegitimate, and oh by the way, speaking personally, they owe me hundreds of thousands of US dollars in compensation for my losses.
If we don’t have enough forces, let’s call in the Mexican Army along with the UN Peacekeepers.
TEST.
QUARANTINE.
