Class Warfare and Dwarf Tossing - The Town Scryer, Humor Times

Mr. Fish.

John Darkow, Columbia Daily Tribune, Missouri —
Meanwhile, the GOP introduced a bill to legalize dwarf tossing.

Really.

Rep. Ritch Workman, R-Melbourne, filed a bill this week to bring back “dwarf tossing,” the barbaric and dangerous barroom spectacle that was imported from Australia and thrived briefly in Florida before it was outlawed in 1989.

“I’m on a quest to seek and destroy unnecessary burdens on the freedom and liberties of people,” Workman said. “This is an example of Big Brother government.

“All that it does is prevent some dwarfs from getting jobs they would be happy to get,” Workman said. “In this economy, or any economy, why would we want to prevent people from getting gainful employment?”

As Will Durst has been known to say, “You can’t make this stuff up.”

Be seeing you.
