Simple solution to get them to change their attitude towards the rodeo Clown. Stop taking the rodeo, clowns and all, to Missiouri. Granted some will miss having the rodeo there but believe me when I tell you the financial impact will definitely be noticed. Rodeo over in Kansas someplace instead.

How can they ban him? His identity is unknown as he was wearing a mask.

BTTT

Did you notice he has only been banned from performing in the Missouri State Fair Rodeo so that leaves 56 other state fairs.

The Missouri State Fair on Monday imposed a lifetime ban on a rodeo clown whose depiction of President Barack Obama getting charged by a bull was widely criticized by Democratic and Republican officials alike.

The rodeo clown did not act on his own. The announcer seemed to know what was going on and I'm sure it was planned out in advance.

Rodeo clowns take a lot of risks in order to protect the riders. I hope his colleagues make a stand for him.

I’d say that’s why 6-shooters were invented, but NSA would have my butt.

We need to start a support FReep for this clown whose free speech rights have been violated.

Good grief. I thought it was pretty funny. I would think it’s way past time that someone kicked the s*** out of Obama.

I would suspect that if this clown went on UTube, lots of people would donate enough cash so that he would not have to worry about working another day in his life. He might even have enough to buy the fairground and then he could run it any way he chooses.

Sorry for the double-post fart.

I was just feeling sad and didn't know I was double-dipping.
