Mixing it up

Rather than going over music this week I thought I'd have a little public service announcement instead. See I found this petition about a documentary:
IT'S HERE YA'LL

The documentary is called Bully, and wouldn't you know, it's about bullying. It has not come out yet, but it has been cited as being very in depth, revealing, and informative. It should be a view into every aspect of bullying in and out of schools. It is also alledgedly very graphic. It was rated R by the MPAA for language.
The petition above OH AND HERE IT IS AGAIN is asking the MPAA to change the rating from R to pg-13. The movie would be much more effective if it was ACTUALLY AVAILABLE TO THE KEY DEMOGRAPHIC. Kids in schools are the ones who really need to see this movie. They're the ones who have to deal with bullying in one way or another every day. But if it's rated R, it would be difficult for a student to see, but if it's pg-13 it could be shown in schools. I understand that the MPAA believes it has too much language, but I've always found that to be a ridiculous argument. Why would I be concerned about kids who already know these words, play Call of Duty online every day, and are exposed to violence and whatnot constantly. Makes no sense to me.

Your average 13 year old

I just feel it is so much more important for children to see the effects of bullying and see what this documentary has to say. Bullying is still a huge problem in our schools and anything that might help prevent it should be implemented. Did you know in just one week earlier this month, there were 3 attempted suicides in Avon Lake? 3.
So if you believe that this movie should be made accessible to kids in schools, please sign the petition. ONCE MORE. Help us try and stop all of the torment to these kids.
