Disney Kiddie Mayhem (Thoughts on Watching 101 Dalmatians)

Sociopathic narcissistic, cigarette-smoking Cruella De Vil
Plots to have her brutal looking henchmen
Steal 101 Dalmatian puppies
So her taxidermist, Skinner, can kill and skin them all
To provide her with a black and white coat

To this end the masked villains force entry into the
Owner’s house while the housekeeper battles the villains but overpowered
And locked in a closet.
!5 puppies are stuffed away in a bag and whisked away in a truck.

Alert animals, sensing malfeasance, chase the truck to the De Ville Mansion
And liberate the puppies who are hidden in a farm
But the villains track the puppies to the farm
Where the barnyard animals unite to outsmart them inflicting righteous
Violence on the bad guys and save the dogs.

In the English video starring Jeff Daniels (the Dalmatians’ master)
Develops a successful video game the final scene of which
Features the villain De Vil being blown to bits by a keg of TNT.

This somehow is emblematic of the way we Americans have been in the world.
Looking at our history, it is not democracy we embrace, but murder.
