I agree.
I have kids and DO NOT tolerate them being a disturbance in public.
I have to agree with Dave though, on the way the note was signed - pretentious f***er.

To me Florians response is invalid[^] IMHO you are NEVER going to fix even the biggest problems on this planet, no matter how much money you pour into support programs you cannot fix them all. I'll be astonished if we can ever fix the refugee issue currently plaguing Europe.
This planet is well on the way to ruination, unless we get into space I figure the human race will quite rapidly revert to barbarism.

When the same human race is sent to space, we would eventually 'rapidly revert to barbarism' in outer space. What's the guarantee of this not happening?

I think it would be little difficult to revert when your existence is reliant on a certain level of tech. Dying out may be a real probability, I do believe vacuum will be fairly unforgiving of stupidity.
As for guarantee, there is none of course.

Speaking as a fully-dues-paid member of the Society Of Citizens Keeping Planets Unpopulated (SOCKPUP), I say leave Mars alone, and let's get on with fully exterminating the two-legged parasitic primates that have the hubris to call themselves "Sapien."
A good start would be to place in geostationary orbit those users of on-line fora that start new threads rather than click the "Reply" button  Of course, they would have enough oxygen to get to see at least one earth-dawn.

Oh I'm pretty confident we are well on the way to achieving that goal for you.

My mind is drawn to the comics/animations about how earth has contracted humans.
The best is a video animation depicting humans as small black blobs that runs around leveling forests and killing fuzzy animals via beheading. At the end you see the earth getting sicker and sicker and as the earth is dying a rocket leaves to spread to other planets.

Revert? When has it ever not been barbarous. It takes seriously rose-coloured spectacles to view any period of human history as anything other than barbarism with increasingly effective weapons. Is there any real difference between the Mongols literally decimating the world's population and ISIS aspiring to it; between the plague and drug addiction; between gladiators and drivers. One doesn't require religion to see that 'original sin' is the very definition of human beings. Wherever humans may go in future be it into space, or undeground, or beneath the deep blue sea, they will never shake off their profound ability to corrupt and be corrupted.
In any case, advances in extra-terrestrial living is never going to be the Earth's salvation. It has taken over 50 years of space exploration to even get to the point of just thinking about putting a dozen people on Mars. It will be at least another 20 before anything actually happens. If that dozen is successful then it might double every decade or so which means that by the end of the century there might be a colony of around a thousand to, if everything has gone spectacularly well, ten times that, still considerably less than the number of refugees currently seeking asylum in Europe alone and a microscopic portion of the 11,000,000,000 people predicted to be living on Earth at that time.

All that does is add problems, not make it easier. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

That's because the majority of problems we have can't be fixed with money, they can only be fixed by fixing (or, in New Age speak, "evolving") the human being to where he/she is considerably more conscious of the impact of his/her actions on others and on the world.

Although there are some effects of graphics in it, that makes it crisp. But I would personally prefer visiting the sites and watch them live, rather than in high definition. That would be same, not free, but more like it.

Good point, but one question:
How many places can I go to? Have gone to some places on business trips, and gone near some of these museums, but the sheer ticket costs put me away, especially for a not-so-affluent visitor like me.
This is like a one-stop place for all of that.

Good point, second question:
Have you ever been to the Louvre?
The Mona Lisa is about the size of a laptop, you're not allowed near it, and there are two hundred people crowding the place taking selfies.
You have to see the site I linked to as a complement.

No, I prefer real life in high definition.

I prefer to escape reality completely - in as low a definition as possible...
