What about where your rights might begin? I'm thinking of the dangers of alcohol, drugs, etc. where my use doesn't guarantee causing you trouble, but it definitely increases the likelyhood - much like not gettig vaccinated.
- bequanna 12y agoNot sure I follow you here. If you 'cause me trouble' on drugs/alcohol, that is a decision you are making as an individual. If you drink and drive, if you punch me, you are actively choosing to cause harm. Being drunk or high isn't really a valid excuse for bad behavior or committing crimes.
- DougN7 12y agoI guess I'm thinking not getting vaccinated doesn't actively cause you harm. It might. So someone getting drunk/stoned/high might cause you harm. I guess there is some lessened ability to make a decision, but causing an accident for example is something no sober person would do. But we allow people to drink and take the chance. Seems similar to allowing people to not get vaccinated to me.
