What about lying about a book or books being banned?

Not to mention the blatant lie about anything being banned

The lady might be an idiot but the book of poems wasn’t banned. It, and the other four that lazy woman challenged, are still in the school library. They were deemed suited for grades 7 and up but NO ONE is prevented from reading them.

An argument absolutely should have to be made. Some random SINGLE individual should not be able to so readily challenge a text.

Maus (a graphic novel) wasn’t banned.

Absolutely. She proved herself to be an idiot.

Funny how little most here want to get to ‘the root’ of things. Just more outrage binging.

I tried to look into this but everything I could find was as ambiguous as this ‘report’.

It’s a pretty damn ridiculous situation. We’ve all seen the self-righteous indignance and violent lashing out when anyone dares to turn onto ‘their’ street just trying to use the road as intended. Then they go NUTS when someone gets hit. Then they LIE about laws, claiming it’s ‘ok to plow over protesters’.

Gorman’s poem/book weren’t banned and neither was MAUS.

It wasn’t banned. Amazing how damn lazy and gullible you are. It’s obvious why.

It’s NOT BANNED! Why do you people lie so much? An uninformed, apparently illiterate idiot challenged Gorman’s book along with four others and the review board recognized the book had educational merit. In fact, they determined the same for all five of the books the apparently illiterate idiot complained about.

Ah! Gotcha. I got confused.

Dang. “It has an exhibit on hypebeast sneakers.”

It’s fairly junk yard lookin’, too. Property looks nice from the street.

People thought this was literal? It was stated as a simulation!

Seconded.
