More proof that "One Bad Apple" was a terrible message for kids. · 7:02am Jun 29th, 2014
I wonder if my pet stalkers from Canterlot.com are still watching, because some stories I've uncovered lately have shot some more holes into their peachy-keen "authorities only want whats best for you!" childish scenario.
First up I have a story of a kid who did exactly what the episode said to do... and got arrested for it. That's right kids, report all bullies to adults. Worst that might happen is you'll end up in jail!
But my problem with that episode was always that, on a larger scale, a kid who grows up depending on adults to deal with bullies is gonna be an adult who depends on police for protection, and guess what? That's a bad idea too, because the Supreme Court ruled that the police don't have to protect you. In the case I just linked to, the woman had a restraining order on her abusive husband, who wound up kidnapping her daughter after police failed to enforce the order... proving that restraining orders are nothing but pretty pieces of paper. She should've bought a gun. I read about a similar case where a pair of women were raped repeatedly, and the police failed to respond... and the Supreme Court (which, remember, is the highest authority in the country) sided with the police.
So yeah... kids who take "One Bad Apple" to heart are gonna end up arrested, raped, or at worst, dead.
Then again, intelligent kids wouldn't watch any MLP past the first (and parts of the second) season anyway.
Have you actually tried watching old MLP and then new MLP to compare how much they make you want to chuck your laptop at the wall?
2394163 Actually yeah, I have. It's something I actually do on a semi-regular basis. And I've found every time that I generally enjoy season one episodes while the later seasons tend to be a mixed bag.
Though I would never consider hurting my precious laptop
Poor waptop, I not gunna hurt oo...
