Today in 1885, Montreal enacted a mandatory vaccine policy against smallpox after 5,000 deaths in 8 months.
In the evening, a mob of Montrealers, angry at the mandate, attacked health & doctor offices, city hall & the police station.

@evan Considering I’m mostly retired, I’d have to say that’s a hard no.
@Computeforloot If Dad had ever thought that would help, he might have switched services again. Hehe! But seriously, has anyone ever gone from the USAF to the Marines? @willmckinley
@Holberg Sounds like a date to me. Of course, there is really little difference.

Georgia State Senator Colton Moore has been indefinitely suspended from the GOP Caucus for knowingly misleading the people of Georgia in his quest to impeach Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis....
Maga stooge Stew Peters airs segment calling for the executions of Americans.
Stochastic terrorism is a process by which republicans target a perceived political enemy by using mass-media to denounce and demonize them, this may lead to a random terrorist attack committed by the perpetrator's audience. Republican fascist inciting death threats and violence.

@Rasta I have a niece who just adores him.
@Rasta ?
This @sshole is taking hypocrisy to a whole new level. One would think a Senator whose state has 5 military bases and a defense industry accounting for an annual economic impact of $50.3B, providing 264,780 jobs in Alabama with an annual payroll of $19.3B would act like it. (Oops, I forgot he lives in Florida now.) Even worse is that his posturing about blocking these promotions in order to protect the "unborn" is a lie. Check this out: #VoteBlue
@Rasta More twangy. It’s like everyone wants to be southern, but can’t do it without overdoing it. And the lyrics…oh dear gods.
