"You have no right not to be vaccinated, you have no right not to wear a mask, you have no right to open up your business... And if you refuse to be vaccinated, the state has the power to literally take you to a doctor's office and plunge a needle into your arm." — Alan Dershowitz, Harvard law professor

Well, the government is wrong.
For years now, the powers-that-be — those politicians and bureaucrats who think like tyrants and act like petty dictators regardless of what party they belong to — have attempted to brainwash us into believing that we have no right to think for ourselves, make decisions about our health, protect our homes and families and businesses, act in our best interests, demand accountability and transparency from government, or generally operate as if we are in control of our own lives.
We have every right, and you know why? Because we were
born free.
As the Declaration of Independence states, we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights — to life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness — that no government can take away from us.
Unfortunately, that hasn't stopped the government from constantly trying to usurp our freedoms at every turn. Indeed, the nature of government is such that it invariably oversteps its limits, abuses its authority, and flexes its totalitarian muscles.
Take this COVID-19 crisis, for example.
