"It appears New York City, along with many other parts of Blue America, are being governed by a song from my youth. Natalie Merchant and 10,000 Maniacs infamously sang “Give 'em what they want,” and liberals seem intent on doing just that, even if the logic for doing so and the consequences are nothing less than surrendering individual freedom.
Recently, New York City announced that only those with proof of vaccination would be allowed to dine inside. Leave aside for the moment the reality that a high school sophomore could easily forge these vaccination cards that are easily replicated. Ponder instead, for a moment, how it is that the same people who recoil in horror at the idea of requiring ID to vote are so comfortable with having to “show your papers” in order to dine out. Remember, these are the same people who insist, when it comes to abortion, that it is “my body, my choice.” For liberals, civil liberties are indeed a moving target."
