    I was taken off the guest list last minute but I heard the crowd was very sophisticated.

    This has really been overblown, they're following all the safety precautions, people are going to sporting events that are bigger than this, this is going to be safe, this is a sophisticated, vaccinated crowd and this is just about optics it's not about safety,' Karni stated.

    In other news, I am vaccinated as of last friday. Pfizer.

    What exactly is the issue here? They had a few hundred people, outdoors, and required vaccines.

    Comparatively, every single day, we have 10-40,000 at baseball games all around the country with no vaccine requirements.

    Of all the things to be b****ing about, this seems pretty low on the list unless you're just trying to score political points.

    What spurred you to do this now after not getting over the last several months?

    Choices:
    Obama's party
    John Legend's hypocrisy (or everyone on the left's hypocrisy)
    My vax status

    An outdoor tent is not outdoors.

    I think it’s a bad look. But it’s also crazy that the left has to be absolutely perfect or they’re ridiculed. Meanwhile the right could have an orgy during COVID and their sheep would say it was for freedom.

    Looks like someone was watching fox news this morning...



    Outdoors. All the guests were vaccinated and tested prior to attending. And the guest list was cut back.

    OK. Can you clearly state what is the hypocrisy you're referring to? Was he attending a party while unvaccinated or with attendees that were unvaccinated? Is that it?

    Edit: Oh -- its' the unmasked thing. Missed that part of his tweet.

    His tweet said that attending a large gathering indoors is like asking for covid. That big ass tent obama was dancing in had doors. And they were within those doors. Indoors.

    This statement of yours is not very different from this statement: an indoor tent is not indoors. They can make it outdoor by connecting a large air vent that circulates air to and from the outside.

    In a similar way, an outdoor tent becomes indoor if they zip it up and tape up the air gaps so that it has very little air circulation with the outside.

    Considering your username, I have yet to see a thread of yours chastising indoor baseball, hockey, basketball, churches, etc. that are full of unvaccinated, unmasked people.

    Or did I miss it?

    I am fine with his tent party. Masks wouldve been better optically but it is time people got out and started celebrating again.

    why? It would send a wrong message. CDC recommend mask indoor, not outdoor.
