Do you remember organ grinders....

....with their little monkeys on top of the organ?  I very much doubt it.  But think about them for a moment - If an organ grinder is playing a tuneless melody, what's the point in drawing this to the attention of the little monkey who is dancing on the top of the musical instrument? It is, of course, to be hoped that there is no little monkey.
 
 
Gone are the days when street entertainers felt free to abuse animals by having them perform for the public. But then, think about how this barbaric and abusive practice, in itself, got stamped out. The authorities complained to the organ grinders, not the monkeys.
 
It always helps to talk to the right person.
