If you’re scared of getting the virus, don’t go. It’s that simple. But I choose not to let fear rule my life.
I find this ridicules to cancel these events…. I notice they NO yup NO Plans to Cancel PENSACON so why should the rest of not enjoy our traditions ours are local families not a bunch of Geeks from all over the country I think this is unfair to stop our Locals from enjoying our Lives …
For those of you who want a first-hand experience with COVID, here’s your chance.
Come on now. Let’s put our mask on and have a dang parade. Too much canceling going on. Insanity rules our elected officials.
