BEN SHAPIRO (HOST): The police are just walking up and down the street and they're literally just checking people's papers. I mean, I find that disquieting, don't you? That doesn't seem great. Especially because, again, in a free country people should not be checking your papers to determine whether or not you've gotten a shot in your arm. This is madness at this point.

The problem here is not the unvaccinated. Listen, I disagree with many of the people who are not vaccinated. I think that they are making a poor public health decision and a poor decision for themselves. But, this is a free country and you get to make those sorts of individual decisions because, again, it is a free country. The real problem in the big cities is that we have become accustomed to political actors turning one segment of the population against another segment of the population for purposes of control. You would not care as a vaccinated person about the unvaccinated person who lives near you except the public health official is using the unvaccinated person's very presence as a rationale for shutting down your life.
