| Message | We, the Vanuku Sinatranoan Party, wish to come right out and applaud this visionary piece of proposed legislation. Its breadth, depth, and perspicaciousness are a wonder to behold. Thanks to proposals such as this one, eight year-olds around the nation can watch the latest horror movies and suffer nightmares for years! Inspiring stuff! Just what we need, potentially maladjusted and psychologically scarred kids. Apart from the "Freedom of children to wet the bed in terror every night for a week" argument, we invite the Vanuku Freedom Party to justify this proposal. |
