@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
