The Final Curtain Comes Down for the American Circus

The Final Curtain Comes Down for the American Circus

by | May 6, 2017 | ,

The champagne must be flowing freely at PETA. Let’s hope their happy now that the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus has decided to pull down the big top once and for all. The show is over. Done. Kaput. Of course, there are many reasons why the circus has decided to close its doors this month – operating costs are up, attendance is down, changes in the American family – but the most powerful push to dim the lights of the circus assuredly came from animal rights activists. And while PETA and their minions weren’t the only reason for the demise of this slice of Americana, they certainly had a big hand in it – with all five fingers.

In what could certainly be considered a symbolic victory for President Donald Trump, the second incarnation of the American Healthcare Act (AHCA) squeaked through a vote in the House of Representatives Thursday afternoon. Without a single Democrat vote, the bill was passed 217-213, with twenty Republicans voting against it.

What appears shiny and tempting on the outside is harboring a rotting core of leftist hypocrisy that has shattered the dreams and hard work ethic of a small group of high school students.

Americans like to act like they don’t give a hoot about an outdated, somewhat feckless monarchy that we rebelled against more than two hundred years ago. But that would be more than a bit mendacious. Perhaps because we, as a nation, have eschewed all things royal, we are fascinated by its movements and trappings. The reality is that these are some fairly curious folks.

Premiering on Netflix this past weekend, each twenty-two-minute segment is rife with angst, gender identity crises, drug use, drinking and a cast of characters that engaged this viewer in the first minutes of episode one. One of the lessons learned is that writer, director, and creator of DWP, Justin Simien, has a universal message that America should hear. Everyone is to a degree, racist. Not just, as many have been indoctrinated to believe, the deplorable Trump voters.

The Racist Left: Protesting And Projecting

The Racist Left: Protesting And Projecting
