    If you do not live in Louisiana, you should be asking your state to require anyone from Louisiana, or who has visited Louisiana in the last four months, to pass a rapid flu test and rapid covid test before being allowed to enter your state.

    Your state should not be made to bear the consequences of idiotic public health decisions made in other states.

      Yeah, but I’m in Texas so…

      Our gvt is probably giving them free rides into the state.

        Traditionally, you are correct. But nothing matters anymore, so

        The doctrine of the right to travel actually encompasses three separate rights, of which two have been notable for the uncertainty of their textual support. The first is the right of a citizen to move freely between states, a right venerable for its longevity, but still lacking a clear doctrinal basis.

      It’s not like we have border checkpoints between states. Maybe you can do something at the airport level, but roads no chance.

          Border Checkpoints. Bold.

          Let’s set that precedent. I don’t see any issues that could arise going forward.

          Rich people are less likely to get sick as well. Why even bother checking? Waste of time. We can set up a fast pass for them. It’s the poors we gotta worry about. Well, specifically, the [Redacted] the [Redacted] and of course the [Redacted]. Degenerates… We need a way to separate them in line… Hmmm. I’m thinking barbed…chain link? Thoughts?
