Should We . . .

. . . STOP . . .
. . . the hate?


I spotted a family, consisting of a man, woman and two young boys (8 - 10 years of age) in the neighborhood the other day.  The man was wearing a t-shirt bearing the following note:
"Hit the road Amigo".

While it was tempting to tell him that I had considered wearing my "Elect A Clown Expect A Circus" shirt that day, I instead considered that not only do such antics only serve to exacerbate the current political polarization, but that anyone who considered that clothing item appropriate would most likely not consider physical violence an inappropriate reaction to such a remark.

Who . . .

. . . and why?



(from http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/03/who-are-donald-trumps-supporters-really/471714/)
" . . . poorly informed voters, swept up by a modern circus act orchestrated by a mass-media-age P. T. Barnum with arguably worse hair. . . male, white, and poor . . . a male-female gap (of) 19 percentage points (47 percent support among men vs. 28 percent among women). . . voters making less than $50,000, 18 percentage points ahead of his support with those who earned more than that amount. . . the absence of a college degree. . . a personal fear of terrorism. . .

Pack In The Pachyderms . . .


(from http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ringling-bros-barnum-bailey-circus-phasing-out-elephant-acts-n317836)
". . . The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus is stamping out its famous elephant acts.
Feld Entertainment, the company that owns the circus, said Thursday that it will phase out the 13 elephants from its traveling circus performances. By 2018, the popular pachyderms will be relocated to a conservation center in central Florida, where they will join the rest of the Ringling Bros. herd of more than 40 elephants. It will take "months" to renovate the facility and make more room for the animals. . .The Humane Society of the United States, which was among the animal rights groups battling Ringling Bros., called the surprise move "startling and tremendously exciting."
"We've said all along that the public won't tolerate the abuse of elephants with sharp bullhooks to get them to perform tricks or the constant chaining of these highly intelligent and mobile animals," Humane Society President Wayne Pacelle said in a statement. "There are better forms of entertainment that don't harm animals." The Feld family said they would continue to "preserve the esteemed traditions" of its 145-year-old three-ring circus — dubbed "The Greatest Show on Earth" — with the use of tigers, lions, horses, dogs and camels. . ."


Now we'll have to be content listening to Sun Ra's music . . . (don't get it?)
