Reading is for rich people. I watch the movie, I'm in and out in 2 hours.

After watching the video for a minute: Who knows if this librarian is some creep who's trying to groom kids, or some legitimate librarian being caught up in a witch hunt. The trouble with uprisings against evil is: The uprisers tend to go after both the good and the bad.
 
sorry nobody is grooming anybody. that guy ("constable") is a creep. and just wants to install his hateful propaganda onto everyone else. again, it is just like Fahrenheit 451. it is utter ridiculous.

and as always i do not understand your post. are you a book banner or not?
 
seriously? they are not grooming....PLEASE!!!!!!

what? so you think that after one reading from a Drag Queen, the kids will become drag queen themselves? REALLY? OMG if that is what you believe, i feel very sorry for you. and all i see from your post is HATE!!!!!! that is all i see. why do you hate so much?

and no i love books. and i would hate to have my local library be prohibited from offering any kind of book. my local local library should have books like Mien Kampf or even books like the Satanic Bible. books are knowledge.....banning books is preventing the process of learning.
 
Just looking at this thread now. Using the word obscene is so subjective. It's no different than the group who wants Dancing With The Stars taking off television for being obscene

My question was about school libraries: Do you think that any books, at all, should be prohibited from being stocked in school libraries?

school libraries are controlled by the school board. i have no issues with restricting what is made available to children. what that guy did was to bypass the school board.....totally wrong.

7 of those 10 were required reading back when I was in school.

i have read everyone of these books.....all of them was from required reading from my Catholic highschool that i attended when i was a sophomore and junior.......have you read them? and what is your source? i do not trust that source at all.

edit: and your list only proves my point. why do librarians have to be under assault? who cares what you think about a certain book. they should not be banned in libraries.

As I said I have read 7 of the 10 on the list.
3, 4 and 6, I haven't. As to the source I just did a simple Google search.

It's not what I think. I haven't ever thought about banning a book. If I don't want to read it I don't.
 
Here's a book from a well-known author we had in our school library when I was a kid.

That I'm quite sure is banned from libraries now.

BTW contrary to popular belief !984 and Animal Farm by George Orwell are not banned in China.
 
Correct, but my thread is about librarians being under attack. They get threatened. police are called on them. They are under investigation. This culture war on books is just plain stupid.

There's a lot of crazy crap like this going on right now. Check out the AG in Texas and things he wants to do to enforce the abortion ban.

Abortion is one of the things that frustrates me about Republicans (and I'm a Republican myself): Thier extremism on abolition scares women out of voting Republican, and undermines efforts which could actually lower the abortion rate.

If I'm right, and that is sexual grooming (or something akin to it): Of corse I'm going to hate that! I should hate that. So, the question is not if I hate. The question is if I'm right, if this is this is sexual grooming/LGBT indorcnation.

Before you answer that question: Imagine if ten or twenty years ago, someone said that acceptance of gay marriage would lead to drag queen story hour, elementary schools teaching kids that there are more then two genders, etc. I think we know the reaction to that: The left would have mocked someone who said that! Yet it happened. So, even the left not so long ago would have thought of drag queen story hour as something unthinkable. Now, I'm hateful if I see it as grooming?
 
"....sexual grooming/LGBT indorcnation..." (Indoctrination)

Your statement is as logical as a child who wants to be a witch on Halloween is witch grooming for witch indoctrination

Oh, there's a big difference: There's no such thing as witches! Kids pretend to be witches, but any adult who claims to actually be one is (rightly) seen as insane.
