   This sounds like a very mature and balanced view. Note that I do not   
   include myself in the category mature and balanced most of the time. ;)

   This might comes as a shock, but I don't. ;) The people I discussed with   
   I assume, assume I am against all vaccines, which is not the case. My   
   main beef is with corona and how badly it was handled globally.

   If that was not possible, would you like them to be killed? I think they   
   should be allowed to live as they like. I am in no way forced to   
   interact with them, and they are in no way forced to interact with me.   
      
   There are public spaces, but if you start to regulate those, we are   
   straight on our way to 100% authoritarianism, so I'll take the risk that   
   there can be morons, anti-vaxers, killers and criminals in public spaces   
   any day, over overregulating who may or may not be part of society.
