Midget Mania

Last night I saw something both interesting and disturbing at the same time. I went to the baseball game at the local league we have here in town. It is not a minor league team, nor is it affiliated with any MLB team, but they have lots of promotionals to get the butts in the seats. Lasts night's promotional was midget wrestling. I dare say there was not a politically correct person in the whole party, not that being PC is something I seek out or strive for. The midgets were hyped up in there spandex and bouncing off the ropes like small children in a candy shop. Although this sight was some what humerous, with the planned moves and poorly attempted smack talk, I think the spectators were more of the problem to me.

You have your typical wrestle watching, trailor living, Nascar fans hooping and hollaring about laughing at the show. They weren't laughing with the midgets, they were laughing at them. This makes you wonder if the midgets know they were being laughed at, and if they did indeed know, why do they continue to put themselves in public spotlight. Is it they are so comfortable with themselves and there current status that they know they are one step above circus performers, or is the need to stand out and be famous so great people with risk there dignity all as a result of self concsiousness? Does this help or do they go home at the end of the day bragging about what was said and who won the fixed wrestling match?

But, I think it goes back to another problem I have noticed and probably noted in this blog. Lack of compasion combined with low self image that force people act in negative manner to others. Does this mean there mother/father...beat them, touched them, didn't hold them enough, held them too much, dropped them, I don't know, nor do I want to. I know it is sad how people just don't care about other people in this world. Not unless they can gain something from them. So gaurd your morals, values, and well being. Push them away so you can stand out in a crowd of your peers by crash comments and mean stabs at others.
