The usual suspects.
Let's see, 50 years of "parades" with Your Life Counts and I Am Somebody and I Am a Man

A circus parade and rally for nonviolence that drew hundreds of people to the Linwood Shopping Center on Tuesday evening had to be cut short when multiple fights broke out.
Kansas City Police Chief Darryl Forté said the organizers stopped the event. He tweeted that the crowds dispersed and there were no reported injuries.
But the fighting marred an event, called “Your Life Counts,” that was intended to celebrate survival in a city plagued by crime.
Performers and animals from the UniverSoul Circus paraded north on Prospect Avenue from 39th Street to the rally.

Performers in bright costumes walked on stilts through the crowd as Caribbean dancers invited young people from the audience onto the stage to do the limbo.
“Don’t tell me something good can’t happen on Prospect,” Brooks said before the fights broke out.

Can’t win for losing...
Maybe they just need some midnight basketball.
Hope the pinhead and bearded lady weren’t involved.
Rates right up there with “we’re the religion of peace and we’ll cut the heads off of anybody who suggests otherwise”.
Irony is so ironical.

Sounds like it. At least some in the neighborhood were trying to make a difference, but they got a taste of reality. An animal is an animal because they are animals. It’s not the environment that is to blame.
Isn’t it ironic.... don’tcha think?

It figures. All of the acts listed are from overseas except the Elephants. http://www.universoulcircus.com/#!our-show/c1vn8
Gee, you mean there’s no circus talent in the ghetto?

I remember a time when American Police Chiefs did not have accent marks in their names.
