@Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker Thanks for posting that.

When I hear "book ban" I think maybe pornography or something. But no, it's books that contain facts and truths, and books that make you think.

@shuttersparks @Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker

Remember when they banned Judy Bloom, because young girls get periods and develop boobs, but apparently they are not allowed to read about it?

@Urban_Hermit @shuttersparks @Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker

They're banning Bradbury's "Farenheit 451"!

What are the odds that they haven't read it?

@BillySmith @Urban_Hermit @Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker They probably haven't. There's something "meta" about banning a book that's about burning books. o.O

@Runyan50 @shuttersparks @Computeforloot @RobertDaleParker @RiaResists
Life must be so hard for them. They have to try and ban trans people too because they can't imagine their lives without having kinky thoughts. This is another case of making their shame other peoples' problems.
