Do you agree with this?

Maybe it makes sense that the signature event of the country’s 250th birthday will be a UFC fight. What could better define today’s United States than enraged, veiny-necked, mouth-breathing fellow Americans beating the hell out of each other in a cage of our own making? The only way a cage fight on the White House lawn could better represent our American moment is if the outcome is denied by our president who calls the match rigged and argues that the combatant we all saw lose with our own eyes actually won, leaving us more angry, more divided, and sure of only one thing: We want to get back in the cage and get back to beating the hell out of each other. Aside from that, we don’t agree on much, not even the shared history that we are meant to celebrate. We’ve lost the plot. And we’ve stopped trying to find it.

You can't buy class, decorum, intelligence... with all the money in the world. Trump and all his shrill and gaudy nonsense is the perfect example for that.

you hid that American boxing has RULES. it is a sport with safety teeth protection and gloves. so yes that is American! not a bony fist fight with brutality!

[strateguy632]

no rage and not 'beating the hell out of each other.' with breaks! when one goes down the other WAITS to see if he stayed down!

Other than "don't hit below the belt," there are not really any rules that get enforced.

All I know is that America will never be a communist country,. No matter what.
