The Dark Knight of State Intervention
"Sydney mother Laurina took her 8-year-old son to [the Dark Knight] as a school holiday activity and left the cinema highly disturbed by the violent scenes, and felt the movie was inappropriately rated."I'm horrified, this movie is rated M and I almost feel it's heavier than an R rated film. I had to cover his eyes and talk to him throughout to cover some of the dialogue.
"I mean these companies market Lego products to children like my son. This movie should definitely be rated higher. We're going to go and get some sunshine and go somewhere happier!""

Way to go. Take your 8 year old son to a movie that is recommended for over 15s, and then after he comes out naturally disturbed and shaken blame the situation on an unchecked need for further government regulation.
People like this cause day-to-day life to be superfluously centralised, monitored and regulated by the state: a sub-section of people who are not capable of making basic realistic decisions for themselves and who require big brother to do it for them, or alternatively people who expect big brother to clean up the mess resulting from their bad decisions. They make life increasingly tedious, patronising and restricted for everyone else who can make good decisions on their own.
hink of it all - of the life that is! Study your friends and foes!
Study the past! And answer this: "Are these times better than those?" The life-long quarrel, the paltry spite, the sting of your poisoned pride! No matter who fell it were better to fight as they did when the world was wide.
