If so is anyone going?

Thanks John. Looks like That’s That.Just saw this on Facebook.
While I understand your thinking, the State has the right under numerous statues to enforce laws for the public good. THE PUBLIC GOOD Because Pandemics are rate events, it is hard to write a Constitution to apply to every instance that may arrive during the States existence. Since I am not a health expert or a scientist, I will at times have to consider the advice of such people. It is easy to say each person or business should be able to make their own decisions does not take into consideration that business' are licensed by the City, State and they are bound by their rules.People as we know, care not when they infect others with a deadly disease because of numerous reasons. FWEEDOM I have not gone for a few years because it is too crowded and the food sucks.I haven't gone to the Derby in several years because every time I attended, I picked up a bug. The dates are right in the middle of flu season. But that's my choice.
OTOH I don't believe legally it's the governor of Indiana's call, if their constitution is like most others in the U.S. Decisions like that must be made by a state's legislature. Yet everyone blithely accepts and cowers. People and businesses ought to be left to make their own decisions.
I don't blame the DCC for cancelling, but they ought not be forced to, unless the casino itself decided to close.
The State of Indiana legislature may have that power. But I'll bet a dollar to a dime that the governor does not have the authority to unilaterally shut down commerce in his state. Same as the U.S. President: no authority in that regard, although Congress would have that authority.While I understand your thinking, the State has the right under numerous statues to enforce laws for the public good.

I shutter to my bones to say this but I agree with Lou. Hospitals are overrun, quarter of a million dead. I will listen to my wife who works as a manager for the 85 bed unit of our local hospital. She says it is real. Like it was said on Seinfeld one time, there are real and they are spectacular. Doc, there are certain aspects to some pool shots that don’t change no matter what your feelings about them may be. It is the same thing with this pandemic. Don’t be part of the group looking for conspiracy theories, you are WAY TO SMART for it. Your progressive friend, Kentucky.The State of Indiana legislature may have that power.

A nurse in Texas says some of her patients who are about to die of Covid still believe Covid is a hoax and even deny it on their death beds.
Next thing you will be trying to sell us is you are a progressive.Believe me, here in Texas, 99.97% of us believe it is real. The cure cannot be worse than the disease, though.
My brother is currently in Texarkana hospital with Covid. His wife also has it, but is not serious enough to be hospitalized. She
lost her sense of smell and taste completely. Today is his 6th day confined, but it is also his 5th and final treatment of a
2 hr intravenous treatment of Remdesivir. He has COPD from smoking 1 1/2 - 2 packs of cigarettes until about 4 or 5 yrs ago,
on Oxygen part-time, and 3 breathing treatments daily. This was the last 2 years. COPD is no joke. He does have a strong heart.
Anyways, he feels good and is expected to be released this afternoon or tomorrow morning. He is 65.
He was hospitalized for 2 days week before and was sent home on Friday. Readmitted this past Monday.
