For our own Good.

Reading this about another safety edict on behalf of our Nanny state. Banning pens we have used for decades. Read it at 'Nanny Knows Best'.


"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

C. S. Lewis God in the Dock
