You're invited, but we know you're guilty

I got an invitation for attending the screening of Michael Bay's Transformers movie. What pisses me off is what is written in the ticket, a disclaimer that implies that they, the MPAA, Paramount Pictures and/or Cobb Theatres, just assumed I am already a criminal and I need to be scanned and profiled as one.

I know treating people like criminals is a common practice by the MPAA, and sometimes people attending the screenings are subject to all kind of degrading and abusive procedures, but anyway I will take the risk to go and "try" to enjoy this movie, despite my cell phone is a Treo 700wx and hence that instantly makes me a culprit.


The disclaimer (imputation?) textually says:
