Potter Haters

[ariadnedrue]

As I was walking into work this morning, minding my own everloving 
business (re-reading book 3) I was confronted by one of the most 
inane acts of idiocy I have ever had the priviledge to witness.  
There were people standing outside the subway waving pamphlets 
called "The Children of Satan III".

Guess what they're protesting. Ya got it.  Potter.  Now, I have no 
problem with people deciding that they don't want their children to 
watch the movies or read the books.  That's their decision.  But my 
children watch it because I want them to understand that none of it 
is real. People should give their children the ability and knowledge 
to be able to go through life being able to make decisions on their 
own, and not follow the crowd.  They can't see the story of the boy 
whose life was a living hell until the age of 11.  If they could get 
past the magic, they would see the story of an normal teenager, and 
the problems that any one of them could be going through today.

I thought this was a free country.  Maybe the freedom of religion has 
gone to their heads.  Encourage your children and friends to keep 
their minds open, who knows what they'll find inside.
