Imagine someone trying to pass a law "protecting" minors from unpopular political views.

Where is the problem there? Adults still can view anything they like and follow any political ideal they want. They could also intredouce their children to it.

As long as the parents can overule the rating system their is no danger. Children can't buy beer but if you want to buy beer and let your children drink from it, well, why not.

So you're telling me it would be constitutional to pass a law prohibitng criticism of the government except in adult company?

This is a prime example of how activist rulings like this actually endanger our rights.
