Now, [404 Check: was link to http:/ / www. grandforksherald. com/ articles/ index. cfm?id=76831§ion=columnists&columnist=Ryan%20Bakken, anchor: Ryan Bakken muses the banning of Topless Dancing and/or Mixed Martial Arts in the Grand Forks Herald.] Grafton, North Dakota has a problem it seems. The town has outlawed topless dancing, strippers, etc in bars. But, now they seem to have an even bigger problem... mixed martial arts!
Ryan has a question: What do you find worse, strippers or mixed martial arts?
Of course this is a stupid question... it is not an either or kind of question. I don't think that strippers and mixed martial arts satisfy the same desires.
Strippers would seem offer some degree of sexual satisfaction or lease to get someone sexually charged up! Mixed martial arts on the other hand would hardly seem to be sexually satisfying but might give us that rush of violence we so desperately need as a society.
Now, I have a proposal for Grafton. Let's merge the two events.
We can have a grand show of naked women performing mixed martial arts. Now, that will satisfy everyone's needs.
Opps, well, it won't satisfy the need of those that need to control how others are entertained.
Let's not ask which activity you find more objectionable, how objectionable is the government when is crosses the line into being out of control.
