Taking Your Kids To The Movies…
Anthony Burch has written an open letter that is simply amazing. Please read it. The sentiments have never been truer on this one. (Note: There are curse words, so fair warning.)
Dear Dad With a Doo Rag and Mother With a Halter Top and a Belly Piercing,
You may or may not recognize me: I was present at the same screening of Hostel: Part II that you and your family attended last night. I send you this letter in the hopes that you will forward it to all those who share a similar parenting style as you, in the hopes that my request be heard by as many pairs of ears as humanly possible.
I wish to address you concerning a matter of seemingly-negligible importance. Many people – including, I am sure, the both of you – might consider my complaint unnecessary, or simply selfish. Yet in the interest of decency and for the sake of your offspring, I must humbly make one simple suggestion, which you are free to take heed to or ignore at your leisure. The suggestion is this:

That was awesome! I couldnt agree more. It sickens me when people care more about themselves, than their children. I still say that people should have to apply to have children. There should be birth control in the water. A panel of your peers (and law enforcement records) get to, anonymously, decide if you would be a fit parent. (steps down from soapbox)

Wow, Hostel II with children. I am not going to see it because I find it disturbing. I am 40 years old and a Vet.

I don’t think they really know how that will affect their kids. If they care about their kids, they should play it safe and not bring them to the movie.
