What are we supposed to make of this? Hillary's husband is an
accused, yet unsubstantiated, rapist so she should not be
President. Instead, an admitted sexual predator who is also accused
of rape, also unproven, should be President. Or women are
responsible for men's behavior, always. Or two boorish predators
cancel each other out? Or all's fair in the race to the bottom? How
about one of these candidates is a racist, xenophobic, homophobic,
sexist who has no expertise in policy, and wants to cut taxes for
the super rich and would cost the nation millions of jobs.
Today the citizens of Pompeii are idle. Masters and slaves are not
working. Many citizens of Pompeii sit in the theater. Spectators
watch Actius. At least Actius stands on the stage. The citizens of
Pompeii applaud. Suddenly the citizens of Pompeii hear a great
noise. The slave enter the theater. “Hurray! The tightrope walker
is here,” the slave shouts. The citizens of Pompeii are not
watching Actius. All of the citizens of Pompeii rush out of the
theater and watch the tightrope walker. No one stays in the
theater. However, Actius is not angry. Actius also watches the
tightrope walker.
