[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this is what my spouse shared with me, but please get the full story before you comment. I do know one of these books available to 13 year olds shows an explicit drawing of someone giving a blow job. I’m no prude and I think we should exercise extreme caution censoring books, but I don’t want my kid reading that. And no, my kid also doesn’t have unfettered access to the internet. [/quote]

+1  I don’t support censorship of anything but restricting age inappropriate books is not only acceptable but sensible.  But some of the radical fringe insist 9 years should be exposed to graphic imagery.[/quote]

+2
Parents interested in exposing their children to the abuse and rape of women, as well as other graphic depictions of sex, are welcome to check those books out in a public library to share with their kids.  They do not have any place in a public school.  Period.[/quote]

Amazing the kinds of books you seem so eager for your kids to read.  And very telling.

Eh. My kids aren’t old enough to have access to or interest in such books; I’m re-reading Anne of Green Gables to my eldest right now, but I sense that being on the attack makes you feel better about supporting fascism, and allows you to quell the nagging voice in you that’s trying to tell you that if fascism really gets a toehold, as the GOP is trying to do, at some point something that you actually hold dear will be on the chopping block. Expect no sympathy from us sane people when the leopards eat your face, lady. [/quote]

What an odd post.  Were you one of the "sane people" who called for banning "To Kill a Mockingbird"?  How about "Huckleberry Finn" or "Of Mice and Men"?  THOSE book banners were/are liberals - but I guess that's not considered "fascism" to you, amirite?

Anne of Green Gables/Avonlea/the Island, etc. are wonderful books for kids.  [b]Certainly, they beat the ones about blowjobs and rape that so many of you demand be available to children. [/b] Are they next on your read-aloud book list?[/quote]

There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled. (NIV) Ezekiel 23:20-21

Deuteronomy 22. Deuteronomy 22:22 states: "If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away evil from Israel."
