The likes of you and the children you are raising don’t read books anyway. The topics are not being taught. They are accessible books. Do you even have enough education about history to understand why book burning is bad? Critical thinking skills have been bred out of your family. Thirty years of home schooling has doomed this country.[/quote]

You really don't get the difference from school systems purchasing disturbing books and putting them in school libraries and "banning books?"

No one is calling on books to be banned.  We just want common sense controlsof what goes into school libraries where --with the exception of those just turned 18--all of the target audiences are minors.

Why do you get to decide what my kids get to encounter in their school library? You want to control your own children, fine -- tell them clear as day what they are allowed and not allowed to read. Give them a list of books you ban them from reading. If you are not satisfied with that solution, for whatever reason (your children don't listen to you), tell your kids they are not allowed to use their school library. Tell the school your kids are not allowed to use the library. Leave my kids' ability to choose for themselves out if it. You don't speak for me or my kids and your decision to narrow the choice of books your kids get exposed to should not get to affect my children. Who do you think you are anyway?
