Clown Court

By Alan Nafzger � The satire Clown Court ridicules justice delivered with red noses and slapstick. Eyewitnesses at trials described judges honking gavels and juggling evidence. Anonymous insiders leaked that prosecutors debated balloon animals as exhibits. A leaked poll revealed 65 percent of citizens admitted they�d respect verdicts more if delivered with custard pies. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because fairness stumbles funniest in oversized shoes. Critics highlight the absurdity of liberty juggled. Yet satire pratfalls sharper: dignity collapses funniest under spotlights. Witnesses recalled laughter echoing as constitutions tripped. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when courts run like circuses. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
