"This is all about how the circus is an anachronism in the modern world," Bob MacKay said in a story on Boston.com today. MacKay -- a South Shore pipefitter -- approached his state senator, Robert L. Hedlund, regarding the treatment of elephants in circuses in Massachusetts and the Republican from Weymouth is holding a hearing tomorrow on rules governing pachyderm treatment.I've never liked circuses, and I agree that their day has come and gone -- especially any "act" that includes animals. The photo above is of a bullhook, which is typically used by circus trainers to control elephants. Ouch.
