As a great poet once said: They don't gotta burn the books, they just remove 'em

Fahrenheit 451 anyone? remember in my day, when, " To Kill A Mockingbird" was banned by several school libraries based on it's language at the time; however it clearly showed not only how people spoke in that time, but how people of color were treated outright, which the book was trying to show, that being bigotry and racism should not be tolerated and shut down where noticed.

Mein Kampf, The Turner Diaries, and the complete works of Ayn Rand.

DeSatan, will only allow books that tend to white wash slavery and tend to paint the confederacy in a good light that, if that's even possible without re-writing history; which the Texas school board did a few year back.
