The Creative Coalition, Hollywood's pro-arts lobbying group, is taking aim at President Trump's proposed elimination of the National Endowment for the Arts with a PSA campaign they call "Right to Bear Arts."
Get that allusion to the Second Amendment mantra of pro-guns supporters? The Creative Coalition and its partners hope you do, and that you'll help them help Trump walk back his plan to dump the 52-year-old NEA and other cultural agencies.
Ed.: 'Right to Bear Arts', another 'right' that requires stealing from your neighbors at gunpoint. |

| I like NEA, but government should be out of funding it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
