On March 19, the moon will swing around Earth more closely than it has in the past 18 years, lighting up the night sky from just 221,567 miles (356,577 kilometers) away. On top of that, it will be full.

So what happened 18 years ago? Umm, nothing, right? And so what if it is a full moon? It's still 221,567 miles away. Doesn't matter if it's full, quarter, new or crescent.

A full moon means that the sun and moon are pulling from opposite directions.

Minorities, women, and children were affected however.

We must pass legislation banning the Moon immediately.
