If I ran the Zoo

Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


In the zoo in which I work, a pro life group was recently denied official status by the school. The reason was the injection of a “faith statement” in the club’s constitution – one the university saw as too exclusive.

If I ran the zoo, the people who rejected this pro life group would have to do community service. I would make them do it all for groups with whom they do not voluntarily associate. They would clean up beer cans at NASCAR races, spent shells at gun ranges, and diapers at Christian day care centers. And after they were through I would have them write “Diversity is our Greatest Strength” 100 times. Or, they could just admit that they don’t really believe in diversity.

In the zoo in which I work, feminists ban words they deem offensive. For example, they ban the use of words like “mankind” and phrases like “year of our Lord.” They are always losing control of their emotions –usually in the midst of asserting their equality, emotional and otherwise.

If I ran the zoo, the feminists would be sentenced to mandatory “de-sensitivity” training. In order to make them less sensitive, they would be strapped down and tranquilized while hearing disagreeable terms repeated in a soft and soothing (preferably female) voice. After hearing words like “adoption” and phrases like “innate gender differences” and “stay at home moms” they would eventually learn to tolerate ideas they don’t necessarily endorse.

That is really all I can think of at this time. So let me end with a little rhyme:

I guess that if I ran the zoo
This is what I’d choose to do
But since my name is not McGrew
I guess I’ll never run the zoo
And so I’ll sue and sue and sue.

Take a lesson
Take a lesson
from the Sneeches
those fine creatures
on those Suess beaches

On their bellies
some had stars
As for the others
...none on thars

The lesson is...
I forgot
It was good
or so I thought

But since we all
must look the same
or sound alike
and smell the same

Lets us then
be like the libs
And never leave
our mental cribs

We'll cry and cry
Until we are suckled
or at least till
their will is buckled

Like them to be
not those on the right
For the truth to them
is such a fright

That they would never
find way to reason
But only to
What ever is pleasin

So just stop thinkin
about what is
And just start drinkin
...Kool Aid, that is.

Mr. Vince, words I'll not mince...
Well, if I missed the point, you missed the column. Adams never attempted to parallel himself with "the true martyrdom of Blacks." I believe you mentioned that Adams was a martyr, not him. It seems that folks are missing the forest for the trees here.

The discrimination against Blacks included suppression of free speech, free press, right to assemble, right to vote, and much more. I argue that the discrimination is similar, just much less bloody and overt. Before you twist your knickers in a knot, let me explain. Black people started off with no rights in America, yet they fought for and ended up with equal rights (insert argument that true equality hasn't been achieved here).

Caucasian/Christian/Conservative/Capitalist (21 y/o men who owned property at least) started off with rights that they fought for. However, they (we) stopped fighting for their rights, so the rights have slowly (almost unnoticeably) slipped away. This group is systematically being denied the rights to free speech, free press, peaceful assembly, etc.

If you choose to sit back and ignore the reality of the discrimination and, dare I say, elimination of (though not physically)"the 4-C's", then welcome to the majority of America. Our rights are safe with the ACLU and the gov't, right?
