i was just watching Alex Baldwins video on the elephants in Ringling circus i vaguely remember when i was a kid being taken to the circus by my parents annd it had elephants i remember it because the guy was poking the elephant with the bull hook i remember saying that they were hurting him and i started yelling out at the guy to stop it and my father grabbed me and told me to stop it they weren't hurting him they were just making him be good and i had to be quiet and in those days ifmy father told you to do something you did it or you had a fate similar to what that elephant was getting its just jogged a memory from the past hope youse dont mind

Holy cow! Out of curiosity, what does your family think of the circus now?
