Even to the point of portraying the murder of a sitting president. "Shakespeare In The Park", directed by Oskar Eustis. A play about the murder assassination of Julius Caesar, only Caesar is depicted by a bloodied modern day Donald Trump look alike who was repeatedly stabbed to death by Senators who just happen to be women and minorities. Also in the play the wife of the murdered president is a Melania Trump look alike who speaks with a Slavic accent and is covered with the blood of her murdered husband. The play was funded in part with taxpayers' dollars along with corporate funding by "Delta Airlines", "Bank of America", and "American Express". The play was also funded in part by "The New York Times". "Delta Airlines", so far, has released public statements condemning the play.

http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Tru...58723.html "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" as an analogy for the current atmosphere in Washington. I am sure Trump is too stupid to see the comparison. Apparently so are his fans.

The right in the US is a danger to the whole world with their mindset which seems to driven almost entirely by fear, so they lash out like cornered rats at imagined foes.
Mexicans, Syrians etc. this thread is an example, its a play for fucks sake.
If Obama was in power they'd have a black president being stabbed in the play.
Making sure the world is still livable for their grandkids is not something the right is worried about.

I really hate to spoil anything, so I'll just whisper this.
The guy playing Caesar? He's an actor. He's not really dead. See, he stands, awaiting your applause.
Oh and Trump? He's not dead either. In fact, I seem to understand that publicly calling for the death of a sitting president is illegal; so if you or anyone truly see this as incitement, one would think you'd be doing more about it than complaining on an atheist forum.

Well, that's a bit harsh. I happen to know for a fact that Minimalist is NOT a 'stupid ass communist fuck'. I know this because I happen to be the regional membership secretary for Stupid Ass Communist Fucks International, and Min isn't on any of our mailing lists. So there.

Well, shit. Put the goofy fucker on your list. He'd be the perfect stupid ass for SACFI.

Your reflection, no doubt.
Possibly, since I was careful not to specify.

It seems you are incapable of seeing nuance, so I'll spell it out for you. Do you understand the point of Julius Caesar? You are busy whinging about this (meanwhile I didn't see any posts about the rightwing crazies calling for the assassination of Obama for 8 years) and either clearly you don't understand Shakespeare (which doesn't surprise me) or even the story of Julius Caesar. The murder of Julius Caesar isn't heralded by Shakespeare. It isn't celebrated in the play. The "defenders of democracy" are, in the end, shown to be the enemies of democracy, taking matters into their own hands.
Shakespeare in the Park (and I have been to see shows two different summers) isn't supported by a per play basis. Yes, the land is owned by the city, but to equate that to this play being "taxpayer funded" is just infantile reasoning. Same with the corporate sponsorship---the entire troupe has corporate sponsors, the sponsors didn't sign up for Julius Caesar specifically.
Regardless, it's not even a call to assassinate the president. It's exactly the opposite.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
