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.

The problem was a lack of self-restraint and self-moderation by some ex-posters.

I was there for my summer holiday this year - very nice!
Well, if you were thinking about Amalfi and Sorrento, no, that wasn't exactly my idea of Naples surroundings. Caserta (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle4791697.ece) or Salerno are more representative of the local reality rather than the dream lemon lands nearby for tourists...
I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.
