Hey, maybe they are taking a page from “it takes a village idiot” Melissa Harris-Perry’s book? All your children belong to us!
Actress Patricia Heaton took to Twitter while in the United Kingdom to call out some of the absurd rules that she and her family are coming across.
UK's Finest Socialists: Vue movie theater/mid afternoon completely empty, won't let us take our 14yr old to WorldWarZ.

UK Socialism: No more floats in local village feast 'cuz they were forced to take out insurance- floats moved at 1/2 mile/hr!

Ridiculous.
She received some push-back over who is at fault for the theater’s absurdity.
@PatriciaHeaton it is nothing to do with the Government http://t.co/JSabN3KWcM are the people that rate movies.Vue are doing their jobs

Nevertheless, her tweets struck a chord and fellow Twitter users voiced their complaints as well.

@PatriciaHeaton the larger problem is the EU imposing these kind of crazy laws and restrictions. It really wasn't this bad until then.

Daft indeed.
Haters gotta hate, natch.
I used to like #TheMiddle until I realized how stupid Patricia Heaton acts.

@PatriciaHeaton 14 years old is not old enough.. I actually liked the middle, but I stopped watching because of how its lead acts in public.
— Michael Ssali (@Michael_Ssali) June 26, 2013
Sigh.
Will more tweets be forthcoming?
@PatriciaHeaton its ridiculous! Even when I was 15 they still wouldn't let me in the cinemas because I'm small!

Rut-roh! Perhaps the rather tiny Patricia Heaton will be barred from the theater next?
Stay tuned!
