LETTER: Our rights are being taken away

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
A woman in our country has the right to end a pregnancy because it is her body to choose, by the law of the land.
The American citizen does not have the right to choose what goes into their body by a mandate set by our president.  I have had both shots, but that was my choice.
We are losing nurses, school teachers, policemen, doctors, firemen, 911 operators because they do not have the right to choose what goes into their bodies because of a mandate set by our president. We should have the right to choose.
We could have other mandates forced on us that could affect our lives in a way we do not want. What is to become of our rights?  No one should be forced to take the Covid shots. To me, this is taking away one of our freedoms. When will it stop?
Our people are being forced to take Covid shots, are losing their jobs, being fired or resigning or forced to take this shot.  Some people are faced with medical issues after taking the shots.
What about all of the immigrants coming into our country without Covid shots?  What is going on here?  They seem to have more rights than the American citizens.
We should have the right to choose!  We all need to be praying for our country. We are in trouble.
