      So, the only way I can think of how to defeat this is to vote blue and if successful, reverse the policy, and un-ban the banned books. Short of that, maybe banned books could be kept by librarian, and only given access to minors demonstrating parent's permission, which would probably require policy change from a blue majority!

  • @Missy-Missy1111

    Why fix what isn't broken? Schools have ALWAYS had a rule that parents could send a list of books their children could not check out to the librarian. This way the students who want to read the books have access to them. Libraries are the bastions of freedom FROM censorship. If you don't like a book just don't check it out. Problem solved!

      So these books are being banned for the poors. Just like they want to ban schools for the poors (aka public education). Stop being a ring kisser. These wealthy despots want to keep you and your family dumb, so you'll kiss their rings while they steal your labor.
