savanah hernandez
This is Savannah Hernandez for Blaze Media in Washington, D.C. at the Defeat the Mandates rally.
There are thousands in attendance here to push back against Joe Biden's mandates.
Let's go talk to some people.
I have your sign here that reads, do not comply, stop the mandates.
Talk to us about why today is important to you.
unidentified
Because my husband shouldn't have to get a vaccine just so he can go to work and provide for his family.
My father is unvaccinated.
He has quad bypass.
He has strokes.
And he is denied care in a health care facility to rehab from his injuries or his sickness that he's trying to recover from.
We shouldn't be subjecting our children to this in no way, shape, or form.
We need to protect our children.
I'm here because I believe in freedom.
I'm a veteran and I served my country for freedom, so I still uphold that today.
savanah hernandez
You guys flew in from Hawaii, so Hawaii, Hawaii has some pretty strict vaccine mandates and protocols.
Talk to us about what life in Hawaii is like.
unidentified
Absolutely strict.
And our senators are the ones that proposed the bill to require the booster in order to travel between states.
And so that means that people from Hawaii wouldn't be able to leave or travel or go see their family anywhere else without a booster.
We've been on lockdown at several occasions.
Lockdown since day one.
We've never been out of lockdown.
We've never been able to go to a grocery store.
I am not allowed to go in a restaurant anymore because I don't have a card, so I can't take my granddaughter to our Sunday morning breakfast spot.
savanah hernandez
We have found all three of the anti-mandate protesters or pro-mandate protesters.
I'm not exactly sure what they would be called, but they're basically out here today.
They're very angry because we have thousands of people out here who are protesting against the mandates.
Let's see if we can go talk to them.
Now, would you be interested in talking to me about why it's important that you're protesting this today?
unidentified
Because I'm not a selfish person who thinks it's all about me.
If we could get a 90% good immunity, not natural immunity, we could get back to our lives.
savanah hernandez
Are you vaccinated?
unidentified
I am double vaccinated and boosted.
savanah hernandez
How many booster shots are you willing to get?
unidentified
As many as it takes.
savanah hernandez
So like 10, 20, 30?
unidentified
As many as it takes because I'm not a selfish bastard.
I want to get back to my life.
So if it takes 10, I am going to take 10.
savanah hernandez
What if they never let you get back to your life though?
unidentified
I'm not a selfish bastard.
I want to get back to my life.
If everybody would just cooperate and do what it needs to do, we would have been out of this a year ago.
But now we're going to be three years, four years, and five years because of a set of selfish, self-righteous jackasses.
I even have, I am recovering from a vaccine injury, but I'll still get the booster as soon as I'm healed.
savanah hernandez
How many boosters are you going to get?
unidentified
As many as you have to.
savanah hernandez
Talk to us about the sign.
What does it mean?
unidentified
Okay, first you have to define Karen.
Karen is a person who wants to turn her own hypochondria into law.
She wants you to wear a mask because she's scared.
She wants you to get vaccinated by law or lose everything.
savanah hernandez
So we're out here today to stop Karen.
unidentified
Yeah, but not hurt Karen, but just to tell her to back off, Jack.
I disagree with vaccine mandates.
I disagree with vaccine passports.
I disagree with what President Biden has been doing with the federal contractor mandate, the OSHA mandate for 100 plus employees, the health care worker mandate.
I disagree with all of it and I just want with my sign, I'm pretty deliberate in this sign.
I want to make sure that people know that we're here because we love our fellow citizen.
We love our freedom and we're not here to sow dissent or discord or anything like that.
savanah hernandez
And you mentioned freedom.
I've been asking people today, do you think that America is still a free country?
unidentified
It is becoming scary, right?
I mean, we're in a state where people are losing their jobs if they refuse to comply with a vaccine mandate or people are afraid of speaking the truth.
I feel like we're on our way out if we don't stop it now.
Not at all.
No, we're socialists, fascists.
We're totally controlled by the communists.
I was scared to leave my island to come here, but I'm also scared for the island and the people, and I'm scared for the world.
I do not.
I do not think.
I think we are a country of coercion and not freedom anymore.
And if we don't stop it now, our children are going to have to fight later.
I feel like we're wavering big time.
Yeah, I feel like we're in danger of losing everything.
savanah hernandez
As a veteran, what you've seen over the past two years with the mandates, with the lockdowns, with forcing people to get vaccinated or choose between their job, how does it make you feel as someone who fought for American freedom?
unidentified
I'm ashamed.
I'm ashamed.
And I'm heartbroken.
And that's not what this country is about.
We're free enough to be here in person, but are we free on social media?
No.
YouTube will censor us.
Twitter censors us.
If you have the wrong opinion about vaccines or the wrong opinion about our president touching children, you will get kicked off.
If you tell me, Mr. President, that I need to do something so I can have a job, so I can get tax refunds, so I can be a citizen, a paying citizen, which I am, I have to go ahead and take a shot.
No, thank you.
I love my immune system.
