I assume that the participants of any event conducted in a New York skyscraper
get a parachute and anti-aircraft Stinger, don't they?

If you don't want to participate in any event outside Alabama, that's fine, just
say it. But don't give stupid excuses, especially that you know very well that
New York has been the primary victim of global terrorism, and that visiting
Tel-Aviv is not any more dangerous than visiting New York.
