"In order to tackle coronavirus, we decided to send more people to cramped and overcrowded jails at which disproportionate numbers of people have caught and died of coronavirus."

Really low-level crime like this should not be overpolicing.

I am against people who bully COVID anti-vaxxers, but this guy committed a felony. People who bought the cards shouldn't be prosecuted, but the seller should. The most hilarious part is that he was committing a felony for $20 a pop. Not a very bright individual...

The only appropriate punishment for this crime is lethal injection of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

You of all people should be pro-bullying.

He fraudulently used the symbols of a United States government agency, manufacturing these cards with agency seals without prior authorization. In addition, he willfully misrepresented the cards as originating from a United States government agency, when they were not. He committed fraud and, if convicted, should face jail time, financial penalties, confiscation of assets, etc.

Do enough $20 crimes and one is a major criminal. That's how it goes with drug trafficking.

If I were a judge I would assess a stiff fine to be rebated to the buyer, to be rebated upon getting the appropriate vaccinations. The offender would still pay the escrow costs, but would get much of the fine back.

Remember, these are the same sort of people that scream law and order.

I wonder how he reacts when catching under-21s using fake IDs in his bar?
