The faculty senate at the college where I work is demanding masks and vax blah blah blah. Thankfully, the college president is fairly conservative and told them to eat bags and bags of dicks.

Complete disclosure... he definitely contracted covid as confirmed by at least 2 test results; however no genotyping was done to my knowledge. Local sources state something like 90 percent or better of hospitalized folk locally have been infected with Delta; take that as you might. The family has decided against an autopsy so we will never know.
No one else in the family is vaccinated; his wife, daughter, son, son in law and grandson all got sick too but all have recovered. The widow will get the jab as soon as she is eligible; I have yet to speak to the other people involved.
Thank you for that. I guess without an autopsy nobody will ever know.

I hope you are in remission.

I think they should prove I'm NOT. What if I copied my own original and put it in two cars and my desk at the office?

So, is this bribery or extortion or quid pro quo?

Well, I don't think it's illegal for you to lie to a private business, but faking a government document IS a crime. Of course, it's only a prosecutable crime if the government desires to make an example of you.

So, for instance, millions of illegal aliens with flea market Social Security cards and D.L.'s? No problem. Hunter lying about not being a drug abuser on a federal firearm transfer form? No problem.

You, printing a fake CDC card? THAT will be a problem and you'll probably end up a political prisoner like the 1/6 protestors.

Hope this helps.

You're not guilty unless you're caught and convicted.

If you're stupid enough to put yourself into a high profile situation, and you get caught, that's your own fault.
Fly under the radar like 90% of businesses do, and you'll be just fine.
I hope this helps.

Wouldn't I have to actually use a CDC logo or other trademark or copyrighted component? I was thinking of going full rogue and make my own card. I doubt the hostess at Chili's knows what to look for.

I wouldn't try to get on to a base or in to any government building with it, but I DGAS if I show it to some flunky doorman at a local bar. If he shoos me away, I'll hand him a BODs and leave.
