SO THAT'S WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!! If I hadn't read all those books, I wouldn't be able to think as critically, or form my own opinions. Therefore, I would not be as disgusted by the BIGOTED MORONS who ban books! If only these books had been banned, I would have no idea how infuriating it is to have people try to tell you what your children can and can not read. Any idiot can use their powers of observation to notice what their children are checking out of the library. It takes a real control freak to try to control what is available in the FUCKING library.
I suppose they're right. I mean, after reading "Go ask Alice" I became a drug addled prostitute at the age of 12. Then, I became a lesbian after reading "The Color Purple". I also committed suicide after reading "Ordinary People" because those books made it all look so COOL.
Oh Dear... there I go again.

Banning books that teach children about their bodies? Yeah, that's how teenage pregnancy happens. Dumbasses.
Captain Obvious reporting for duty.
Thanks for the link and for carrying on the battle too.
My girls are gonna be such deliquents...all this filth on their bookshelves and they're not even in school yet. And Tacy is most certainly doomed, named for that little Lolita - Anastasia.
I can't believe that schools still ban books! I've read several books on that list too, and I wish adults would realize that you can't shelter kids forever, and actually they'll just rebel the more you try. I've been following the "intelligent design" vs. evolution debate, and it's scary what's happening in the public schools today.
You're all heathens and smut peddlers. I think kids should be reared on a steady diet of Bibles. That'll learn 'um.
I think Vonnegut, Miller and Blume make good kindlin' and toilet paper. Donne? Yeats? Plath? If the Lord ate alphabet soup, he could sh*t better poetry.
Repent, lest thee be cast into a see of the burning blood of sinners. I'm pulling my kids from your cess pool!
Sea, that is. You see that? I just read the label on a ketchup bottle and Satan's already wreaking havoc on my spelling in retribution.
I just finished a book of short stories, edited by Judy Blume. If I can remember what it's called, I'll tell you. It was written by authors who have been banned or censored. Excellent reading list, by the way!
And now Piglet has been banned from a county in the UK bcs he offends Muslim sensibilities. I've just finished ranting abt it but I still taste the bile. It's entirely too frightening, what this means.
"Banned", sure. You want it, go to the bookstore. While you chumps are patting yourselves on the back for your open-mindedness, you're missing out on the real problem. Our children are taught junk novels and garbage verse. They aren't taught how to craft a sentence, much less a paragraph, much less a thoughtful and organized paper. They are sent to the internet to do "research". And when the little darlins get to kollidj, they need to spend 2 semesters in remedial English. You people are fools.
