The Vanguard of the Righteous

Ike Boutwell, owner of a theater in Elizabethtown, Kentucky took the unusual step of banning the film Monster-in-Law. Not because it was a bad film, but because it starred Vietnam-era activist Jane Fonda.

If only all theater owners were like Mr. Boutwell, the public would be able to go to the movies without ever thinking for themselves. Or thinking at all.

Fortunately for the fine people of Elizabethtown, Ms. Fonda doesn't make an appearance in Star Wars.
