Congress's book banning law.

i have hundreds and hundreds of books. i have a few that are at least a hundred years old. i have no intention whatsoever of getting rid of those books. but i'm a private citizen, not a book seller, nor a library. libraries could get decimated by this law. nice job, Congress.

Jebus, I thought we were over-nannied over here.

This needs an organisation to collect all the banned stuff and donate it to schools in developing nations instead of pulping it en masse. Wouldn't be the first time the US has shipped things abroad it's not allowed to sell at home, at least this time it wouldn't actually BE toxic.
