A New Jersey gym, the owners of which were arrested last year for refusing to abide by the state's pandemic-related orders, is now offering free memberships to individuals who refuse to take a COVID-19 vaccine.
The owners of Atilis Gym in Bellmawr were arrested and fined last summer after keeping their indoor gym open for months in violation of the governor's shutdown order. They have appeared on Fox almost 20 times since the pandemic began, liberal watchdog group Media Matters reported.
Atilis co-owner Ian Smith announced earlier this week that his gym would incentivize people to reject the vaccines after the donut chain Krispy Kreme announced it's offering free donuts to customers who receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
"In light of @krispykreme giving free donuts for receiving the CVD shot, here at @TheAtilisGym we are giving out free memberships to all who don't get vaccinated," Smith tweeted on Tuesday.

It'll be one big petri dish.

And they also lack critical thinking skills.

(33,643 posts)I mean besides the super-obvious downside of aggregating unvaccinated people who are going to breath and sweat all over each other ... there's also the fact that you have no way of knowing who's unvaccinated, so anyone can show up and say they're unvaccinated and you have to give them free memberships.
Course, it'll probably turn out it's the same '1 month free memberships' you get coupons for constantly from every gym in town.
