We're a nation of Karens (or Asaros, for the male version).

OMG how dare you? Andy, Doc Trezza, myself and many players I know don't feel safe playing this tournament on site for a myriad of reasons and now we're stupid selfish bastards?
For me nothing could be further from the truth. I was/am VERY much looking forward to this contest.
It's GREAT fun trying to be named the best. To interact with fellow horseplayers and to enjoy the entire Vegas experience.
It's not whining. It's responsibility to myself, my wife, my friends and the rest of the world I may come into contact with as an asymptomatic carrier.
These concerns aren't just coming out of our asses. I consulted 2 well respected Dr.'s here in Arkansas. Who also happen to be close friends. They said our concerns are legitimate and real.
One said " I wouldn't roll the dice" One said " Vic Don't Do It"
And this was a couple of days ago when I canceled a DREAM WEEKEND.
Two days boogie boarding in SD, Golf at La Costa (with caddies) and two days playing a huge tournament on Saturday and Sunday at Del Mar.
Tina and I have been planning and looking forward to this trip for months.
I felt lower than Whale Shit when I told her Dr. Roper and Dr. Miller advised against going.
This world, through no fault of any of us is totally ****ED up right now. I'm ****ING sick of it.
But where in the hell do you get off calling caring, accomplished people selfish bastards for trying to make responsible, honorable decisions?
You ought to be ashamed of yourself. It's attitudes like yours that's made this mess 1000 times worse.
TRAGIC!!
