The South Couldn t Rise Again Jokes

By INIGO 'NAUGHTY' ZENICAZELAYA

I've been a professional comedian for the by 20-two years, and one thing I accept pride in, is being topical and relevant.

I took reward of the time off during the COViD pandemic, to write new material, for both local and international audiences.

Jokers Wild will exist reopening shortly so I want to be on signal, especially after such a long layoff, in that location's no excuse for not having new material.

So as I connected to picket the George Floyd saga unfold, I witnessed a myriad of emotions on display, from persons of different, races, creeds, denominations and social standing.

There were actions and reactions, arguments and counter arguments, narratives and faux narratives, protestors and rioters, bunker visits, lies and mud slinging, and that was just the White House.

One thing I noticed while surfing through the channels, the fallout from the George Floyd protest, coupled with the popularity of Black Lives Thing, could put the southern United States into a deep depression, and possibly on the verge of collapsing completely, never to rise again.

Despite the stereotypes, I've had some great runs, on one-act tours throughout the southern Us, having made some good friends in the process. That includes some real alive "scarlet necks", who I happen to exist very concerned about, during these tumultuous times in America.

Specially with a series of recent events that has "reddish neck" America ready to implode, let'due south have a closer look:

1 The Looney Tunes Disarmament

Due to the recent fallout from the George Floyd incident, Loony Tunes has announced that the 'Yosemite Sam' character volition no longer carry his signature pistols.

NRA (National Burglarize Association) members are said to be distraught.

2 'Wrasslin' Own't Existent

A hot second behind NASCAR on the country bumpkin sports totem pole is pro wrestling, in any way shape or course.

Two of the about pop figures in pro wrestling, who are worshipped by the "scarlet neck" nation, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and the "Viper" Randy Orton, sent daze waves through the south, when they both endorsed the Black Lives Matter move.

Twitter about crashed, and other social media platforms were a fizz, with "country cousin" conspiracy theories.

My favourite i beingness that world renowned hacker, Anonymous hacked the ii stars accounts, posting the endorsement of BLM just to inflict vicious and unusual mental torture on "red necks" across the southern United states of america.

3 COPS/Alive PD Cancelled

This was due to the obvious high racial tension in America, and the outpouring of support for George Floyd, along with the message associated with his expiry.

In an unexpected, only totally understandable move, the popular reality based police shows, COPS (kickoff aired 1989) and Alive PD were cancelled.

This was notwithstanding some other blow to Southern Hospitality, COPS was oftentimes viewed in trailer parks across America, to place missing family members and friends who had dropped off of the radar or out of club for 1 reason or another.

4 NASCAR Bans Confederate Flag:

Then came the bombshell, NASCAR said on Wednesday that it would ban the Confederate Flag from its events and backdrop, becoming the latest arrangement to reconsider the emblem's place amid a national reckoning over racism and white supremacy afterwards the expiry of George Floyd.

NASCAR fabricated the announcement 2 days after Darrell 'Bubba' Wallace Jr, who became the first black commuter in 50 years to win one of its top three national touring serial, called out NASCAR to ban the flags outright.

"No ane should feel uncomfortable when they come up to a NASCAR race. So it starts with Confederate flags. Become them out of here. They have no place here for them," Bubba told CNN's Don Lemon.

Subsequently hearing Wallace's comments NASCAR responded with an official statement -

"The presence of the Confederate flag at NASCAR events runs contrary to our delivery to providing a welcoming and inclusive surroundings for all fans, our competitors and our manufacture."

"Bringing people together around a love for racing and the customs that it creates is what makes our fans and sport special. The display of the Amalgamated flag will be prohibited from all NASCAR events and backdrop."

This decision affects me indirectly also, I had a great joke about NASCAR standing for :

Non

Athletic

Southwardport

Created

Acircular

Rednecks

With all these new rules and sanctions, NASCAR could lose its yokel appeal, and run across fans leave en mass, like Israelites out of Egypt, leaving me with no more jokes most NASCAR!

I'yard glad I got my mind off the events of the globe, it gave me a take chances to reflect and reminisce on adept times from days gone by, and the one mutual denominator that brings the states all together, laughter!!

Yes, a good laugh unites people, I run across it happen every night at Jokers Wild, comedy does bring the states together, whoever or whatever nosotros may be, we are all connected by the laughs.

And if we can express mirth together, we can live together.

Express joy at present, cry subsequently!
