County program denying me of something I have a right to

Would it be legal to protest near the event?

You will need to get a permit from the city.

You can call and ask.

If you have to go in to fill out and sign forms, you probably will have the be vaccinated and/or masked.

Define near? Will you be protesting on private or public property? If the former, will you have permission from the property owner? If the latter, you'll likely need a permit from the municipality. Since you didn't identify the municipality where this will occur, no one has any way of knowing whether you can get a permit before the 15th.

What is so great about this event that it's worth all this rigamarole?

Get fellow Conservatives

Good idea. Get like minded anti-vaxxers all in one place, spreading the disease to each other and then dying off. The more the merrier. Plenty of Darwin Awards to go around.

BTW, I'm about as Conservative as they come and I've had my vaccinations and booster.

According to some sites I can protest WITHOUT a permit if we stay on the sidewalks and follow pedestrian law. I am ok with that. I just want Arlington County to know what they are doing is wrong.

Wrong? According to who? You? Dude, you are on the wrong side of history. Bet you also think there was election fraud and Trump is still president.

I think you will find that yours is the minority opinion and that most of us think that Arlington County is right.

Nothing wrong with exercising my constitutional rights.

Right. There is nothing wrong with exercising your constitutional rights. But in exercising your rights, be aware that you are not the only one with rights. A business, for example, has the right to require its patrons wear shirts, shoes and masks, and require patrons have a ticket and/or a vaccination card to enter.

No. You're a neural atypical person who has repeatedly demonstrated that you cannot live independently, and are generally clueless about how to navigate the neurotypical world.

For someone who depends on social security benefits and Medicare and who was hoping to collect another stimulus check, your stance on “big government” is a bit puzzling.
