Yeah, the claim is half of all Dims, but truth is, their isn't all that many of the left, so it comes out to a small amount of people, despite the articles headlines sensationalistic claim.
Shock Poll: Nearly Half of Dems Want Unvaccinated Americans To Be Arrested or Put in Internment Camps

A new shock poll shows that over half of Democrats support fines for Americans who choose not get the Covid shots. Disturbingly, nearly half support internment camps for the non-compliant.
The survey listed the potential penalties for Covid mandate non-compliance, including fines, stay-at-home orders, and internment camps for the unvaccinated and critics of the vaccines.
"Many Democrats would support even harsher measures [than the mandate], including fines for Americans who won't get the COVID-19 vaccine and criminal punishment for vaccine critics."
For instance, 55 percent of Democrats support a "proposal for federal or state governments to fine Americans who choose not to get a COVID-19 vaccine," Rasmussen noted.
A total of 59 percent favor "a government policy requiring that citizens remain confined to their homes at all times, except for emergencies, if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine." This is tantamount to house arrest without trial.
Almost half of Democrats – 48 percent – disagree with the First Amendment and argue that "federal and state governments should be able to fine or imprison individuals who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines on social media, television, radio, or in online or digital publications."

An excellent example of why we are not a democracy. Our founding fathers somehow had the wisdom that in 250 years we would have a country inhabited by idiots.

Exactly! Wisdom of the ages, they saw it, they studied history, they knew what our future held and did their best to slow its inevitability.
Now we're at the precipice, but we'll prevail. War won't be necessary, but if you've noticed lately, the left claims we want a civil war.
Meaning, they will do their best to start one. We need to spread the word, it isn't necessary, we're winning and they're trying to disrupt society so as to institute Martial Law.
More proof that the left is stupid, they cant do simple math 17% want to put about maybe 50% of the Unvaxed in Jail...not good odds

Also an excellent example of the value of the rights discussed in the First and Second Amendments.
Take a look at what's been happening in the places (practically anywhere outside the US) that don't protect those rights. Europe is becoming a wasteland. Australia and New Zealand are caging their people in camps already.

Good point
Toooo many people today can't grasp the value of our First, how it forces the ignorant to learn, and exposes those who want to control us.
If we didn't have a First and a Second, we'd have already been a Third world country.

All anyone who doubts this needs to do is take a hard look at liberal run sh-t hole cities. Most if not all of them weakened the 2nd amendment to the point that it is irrelevant. Now that the means to defend yourself is taken away, they want to defund the police. It's real hard to get involved in politics when you have to worry about your safety, and it makes it real easy for those in charge to manufacture an accident against your opponents. Congratulations there liberals, fine job y'all have done.

Yep, as was planned many decades ago. Being up in years with the ability to see how far we've fallen over the decades, it is only obvious this has been what libs called "Progressive", and the majority haven't a clue they were being used for the useful idiots they are.
I'm pretty sure most of those libs have come to realize after all these years, that we were Right.

It's valuable to understand and keep in mind that a "Progressive" does not define progress as you and I do. To "Progressives," any change is progress,
even if the change is clearly unproductive or negative. True "Progressives" seek constant, endless change as a means of keeping the little people off-balance and nervous and fearful. They want change purely for its own sake.

Very True. Even destructive change just a couple of years ago was viewed as "Progressive" by most libs.
I think they are getting a huge eye opening experience. :biggrin:
