Lack of civility is running wild not just to the political
arena confined
Expanding to entertainment venues where goers are supposed to be having a great
time
It used to be that entertainers ran the risk of a fan coming
up on to the stage
Before security close by could the intruder engage
Now entertainers are running the risk of being hit by objects thrown through
the air
By fans whose cupboards of manners and good behavior are
somewhat bare
Cardi B was performing in Las Vegas live at Drai’s Beach
Club
When a front row fan expelled from his cup his drink of soda or suds
Not like other singers who had been hit in the face or groin
with metal objects
With reflexes not quick enough to the flying objects deflect
Dowsed in an outrage while the backup music continued to
play
Put a retribution response quickly on display
Threw her hand held mic at the fan
Even though earlier she asked someone to throw water on her as heat was too
hot to withstand
When will bands and singer start aping the Blue Brothers
playing country protected by a wire mesh fence?
As from the flying mostly empty beer bottles a welcome defense
But now enhanced with solid plexiglass that metal objects could through crash
And through which liquids could not pass
