Ban April Fool's Day
    #14217759 - 03/31/11 10:26 PM (13 years, 1 month ago)

Ban April Fool's

OUTGOING Victorian Senator Steve Fielding has launched an ambitious plan to ban the telling of lies on April 1 to help stem the ‘‘ever-growing annual tradition of playing practical jokes on less intelligent Australians.’’

“The pranks have gotten more nasty and more tricky,’’ Senator Fielding said.

‘‘Today, Senator [Stephen] Conroy told me that there was a mistake in the counting at the election and I will be coming back to the Senate in July.’’

The Family First senator, who lost his seat at last year’s election, said banning lies on April 1 would be a sensible measure to protect gullible Australians.

‘‘I was so happy that I released a press release, but then everyone started laughing and the horrible joke became clear. It’s unfair, and I won’t stand for it.”

“One of the hardest things about “April’s Fool Day” is remembering when it is on,” Senator Fielding said.

“It’s a different day each year, like Easter, and for a busy Senator like me it’s really hard to stay ahead of these kinds of things.”

In embracing the April Fools' Day spirit, he said a Family First government would respect the rights of all Australians ‘‘to not be molested by pranksters.’’

‘‘With sensible measures and a good dose of Christian humourlessness, April 1 will pass every year without the dangerous and stressful need to watch out for nasty lies and tricks. This is an important issue, and I don’t see the so-called major parties doing anything about it. If Juliar Gillard or Tony Arbib [sic] has a trick played on them today, they will realise just how important it is that we respond strongly with firm policy.”



Finally, someone standing up for the stupids and looking to legislate so that we can no longer have people picking on those less intelligent.
